Gargantreant


"gargantuan" + "treant"

Pronounced: "gar-GAN-tree-ant"
IPA: gɑɹgæntriænt

Couldn't think of a name with "baobab" I liked better than other people's names, so I went with this! Given baobab's mass, it could have a massive name as well. :P

Baodrasil

Baobab + Yggdrasil

Pronounciation: Bao-Drah-Sil

Both of these names are derivatives of the Tree of Life, which this CAP is based off of

Baoboom

Based on the phrase "bada bing, bada boom".

Pronounced: "bay-oh-BOOM"
IPA: ˌbɛi əu ˈbum (vowel position and length depends on your accent)

I wanted a baobab-related name that wasn't awkward to say and write. Most English speakers will likely recognize this phrase as a way to highlight the accomplishment of a simple task. Given my anticipation of CAP 24's power level, I suspect its trainers will find themselves saying this phrase quite a bit.

Blatant polljump: I really think this name would work best if paired with a pre-evolution named "Baobing". If this supposition is a problem, I can tailor the name or scrap my submission.

Raifuku

Rai ( for the shimenawa around the base of the tree which symbolizes that lighting has struck the area and is now holy land )+ Fuku ( for the mask that it’s wearing as an attempt to disguise its self and look somewhat human )

RAI-fu-KU

Baoboom

Based on the phrase "bada bing, bada boom".

Pronounced: "bay-oh-BOOM"
IPA: ˌbɛi əu ˈbum (vowel quality and length depends on your accent)

I wanted a baobab-related name that wasn't awkward to say and write. Most English speakers will likely recognize this phrase as a way to highlight accomplishing a simple task. Given my anticipation of CAP 24's power level, I suspect its trainers will find themselves saying this phrase quite a bit.

I will push to complete the pun by making sure it has a single pre-evolution named "Baobing".
 
Final Submission

Thiccet

Derived from the word thicket (if you didn't know meaning a group of bushes or trees) makes reference to the dense or ''thick'' design of our mon and could also function as irony as a play on the fact it's relatively devoid of leaves and shrubbery

This is a simple name that's easy to say and rolls off the tongue no fancy Japanese words. I know this could be considered a "joke" submission due to a certain meme but that isn't my intention I believe it should be taken into genuine consideration as an option.
