Renaming your Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet is super easy! Just head over to any Pokémon Center and talk to the NPC called the 'Name Rater'. He's the guy for the job. Then select the Pokémon whose name you want to change, and bam, you can give it a new nickname! Remember, you can only rename Pokémon that you've caught yourself. No renaming traded Pokémon, sadly.

Just go to a Pokémon Center and look for the Name Rater dude. He lets you change names. FYI, can't rename trades.

Honestly, renaming isn't even worth it. Pokémon's default names are iconic, why mess with perfection?
