Diddle Diddle - Ditto
Fiddle - Kricketune
Cow - Miltank
Moon - Lunatone or Lunala
Little Dog - Lilipup/Herdier/Stoutland, or Rockruff
Spoon - Alakazam
One time I accidentally said “diddle” instead of “Ditto” and then me and my friends made a set of team names based on the old nursery rhyme.
“Hey diddle diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog laughed,
To see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.”
Since there are seven references we decided to get rid of cat or little dog since they were least important, and eventually we determined cat because it shares a line with fiddle.
