As in, picking six characters from a book/tv show/movie/etc. and then picking out six similar pokemon, breeding them for the right personalities that match the character, and then raising them, all the while picking moves that aren't really strong but suit the character? I'm doing this with Invader Zim right now.
^ ^ So far I have Zim the ledian, Dib the Absol, and Gir the Smeargle. I'm going to then breed another Gir, except as an Aron, Gaz as a skitty, and minimoose as an *insert similar looking pokemon here (i can't think of any...)* Just wondering if anyone else was doing the same. :)

PS Let me know if you have any better ideas for pokemon they should be. XD

I don't go as far as picking specific natures (although they end up matching anyways) but I name my pokemon after character from favorite shows, books, and norse mythology. I thought about making a team specifically from one source but thats a little too hard.
 
I'm making a Sgt. Frog/Keroro Gunso team with:

Politoed - Keroro
Poliwrath - Giroro
Poliwhirl - Dororo
Poliwag - Tamama
Croagunk - Kururu

I'm also going to name them after their respectable characters too. :]

I use theme naming for all my teams now, but that's the only one based on other media.

Most of my Gen III steal names like Satoshi, Kasumi, Haruka, Hikari, Takeshi, Masato, and so on. (And I really hope you know where those names came from >_<)
 
My Platinum team is all named after character from Watchmen (except one):
Napoleon the Empoleon
Rorschach the Roserade
Spectre the Togekiss
Nite Owl the Houndoom
Manhattan the Gastrodon (East Sea)
Ozymandias the Luxray

Ha! Ron Paul...
 
I have made team names for many things, novels, manga, three or four on Naruto, a few on Bleach... Almost all of my team names are somewhat based their nicknames like that
 
I put some thought into these...

SpongeBob SquarePants:
Staryu = Patrick
Octillery = Squidward
Pachirisu = Sandy
Kingler = Mr. Krabs
Wailmer = Pearl
Crawdaunt = Larry
(Yes, I know SpongeBob isn't up there; it's just that there aren't any sponge-based Pokemon around)

Garfield
Purugly = Garfield
Lickitung = Odie (I know that it's not a dog, but at least they have one thing in common)
Glameow = Arlene
Skitty = Nermal

Yu-Gi-Oh! (Waking the Dragons arc)
Dragonite = Timaeus
Salamence = Critias
Garchomp = Hermos

Movies
Mamoswine = Manny (Ice Age) (sorry if I took this from someone else)
Slakoth = Sid (Ice Age)
Raikou = Diego (Ice Age)
Pachirisu = Scrat (Ice Age)
Ambipom = Monkeybone (Monkeybone)

I'll think of more later.
 
Not really a whole team. Just two Pokémon actually.

Nagehiko the Umbreon (Male)
Nadeshiko the Espeon (Female)
They were meant to be breeding partners, but I have yet to get that stupid Eevee to evolve into Espeon D:<

Nagehiko and Nadeshiko are from Shugo Chara. Funny thing is though, they are both the same person! Its really confusing if you dont know the series XD
 
I'm tempted to make a team based on the Powerpuff Girls and Rowdyruff Boys... but I'm not sure what all they'd be.
