[zigkid3]

off the top of my head:
zak - zakum
dsg - dark stone gollem
dt - death teddy
mdt - master death teddy
grims - grim phantom watch
pap - papulatus clock
mm - mushmom
zmm - zombie mushmom
zlupin - zombie lupin

[Morgana]

STDs = Straw Training Dummies
DTs = Death Teddies, MDTs = Master Death Teddies

That's all I can think of, off the top of my head. Aside from obvious things like Octos = Octopuses.

EDIT: Mushdad = Blue Mushmom.

EDIT2: HT = Horntail.

[masterchocobo]

I seriously hate the abbreviation they give Straw Training Dummies. I mean, seriously, STDs? Are they separated into types like herpes and crabs as well?

Horned -> Horny

As you can see, just think sexual and you'll get a lot of the abbreviations.

[jiahao_94]

mg --> mixed golem.
jrog --> Junior Balrog
crog --> Crimson Balrog
rog --> Most commonly Crimson, but Balrogs in general.

[KidGruesome]

Himes = dreamy ghost. This was the one that confused me the most. Alot of topics about training at himes. Go ahead look up himes in HS database.

[gutterball930]

Yeah i never got the Himes one

[masterchocobo]

Hime = Princess (Japanese)

They were called that in JMS; don't ask me how that carried over.

[Renz]

jr.cats --> Jr. Cellions, Jr. Lioners, Jr. Grupins
lycans & ww --> lycanthropes and werewolves
CS --> cold sharks
GK --> Gatekeeper
crocs(don't mix up with crogs) --> crocos
Ali --> alishar
coolies --> coolie zombies
neps --> nependeaths
sents --> sentinels

All I could pick from the top of my head that weren't named already.

[Lotz]

STD isnt even a Real Acronym anymore. It is STI.

Himes carried over because that was there name in Japanese, and the people that knew about them knew there Japanese name, so they called it that and hoped for himes, when we got them, we still called them himes.
