So if you have got a Pikachu you called "Pika" earlier, you may visit the house of the name rater and change it it to "Pikachu", but if it evolves it's still called "Pikachu" and not Raichu. Furthermore, if you trade it and your friend evolves it to Raichu it's still called "Pikachu" and he will NOT be able to change the name of it.
Due something like "it's the earlier trainers spirit". So, no you can't delete a pokemons nickname. But you may change it to "Raichu" for example, trade it - and if your friend evolves it later on, the name is matching. It may be possible to change a pokemons nickname in the Generation V and VI as bulbapedia noticed the following:. This means, one tap and your nickname will be set to the species name. By accepting this nickname the game would check, wether it matches the speciesname or not and would remove the nickname-bit.
This would explain, why user was able to restore it's speciesname. I do not own these generations by myself, so if anybody could check this, i'd love to credit him here. Thanks in advance. The name rater always sets this flag, even if you changed the name to species name.
The game determined if the specie was nicknamed in very simple way - if it had the same name as the specie in your name, it was assumed to be not nicknamed. In fifth generation not sure about sixth , there is the only way of removing nicknames I'm aware of, but it's probably not intended to be used in this way. There is a filter in a game client-side, server instantly rejects such names, which is an issue with specie names like Nosepass that automatically removes a nickname when you try to send to the GTS something with a censored nickname warning: link contains potentially offensive words.
You may want to use something censored, and the game will automatically change it into species name when sending it using GTS. As soon as you rename your Pokemon for the first time, it will never return to being without a nickname. Even if you rename it to the original name, it will still be considered nicknamed and won't change on evolution. In generations if you nickname a pokemon and re-nickname it into its generic name, the nickname byte will not be changed.
In other words, the pokemon will still be nicknamed. However, in generation 6 if you do the same the nickname byte will be reset and the pokemon will not have a nickname.
You may test this in your own game. For example if you nickname a NFE pokemon and re-nickname it back to its original name and evolve it, its name will change into the species name of its evolved form. It doesn't work if it's traded or transferred.

I'm also anal about this, so I bred some Eevees in my Diamond game, zapped them over to White and did some tests leveling them up at the leaf rock Yes it is true that if your pokemon are named in all caps and then evolve, their names get fixed.
So you've gotta be really careful with it If you bring in a small pokemon you plan to make big, you don't want to change it. But if you're bringing in one that's already reached its top form, I guess you do want to change it. It's technically impossible to have an American version of any of them with correct naming conventions in Black and White without hacking, since none of them have ever been catchable in American games, and all promo versions of them have BIG LETTER names.
And there are a few other ones that while not technically impossible Deoxys leaps to mind immediately. In any event, this all really grinds my gears. The name change in this generation really screwed those of us who are anal about our Pokecollections. Wish they'd had the forsight to program the game to auto-convert any un-nicknamed Pokemon you transfer in.
