I, for one, found this:

Terälehdet (https://www.pokemasters.net/forums/member.php?u=4851)

Terälehdet is Finnish for 'petals'. Come on, even MY username isn't Finnish, eventhough I keep my flag high whenever possible!

I'd say every username is unusual because there's only one of each.

Except in those rare cases when accounts were accidentally merged and two people ended up sharing a username.

Though there has been both Dark Poliwrath and Dark_Poliwrath?

I was originally going to reply with FanFiccer DragonKnight, who IIRC joined just one month before me.

But he's nowhere to be found in the username list. Did he get culled at some point?

Banned users don't appear in the Members List. One of those people who have been banned pre-cautiously, I think. Even users like The Rusted One aren't found anymore.

There was a Crystal Mew and a CrystalMew.

Also back in 2002 when we switched from UBB to vB (with the EZboard being during that limbo), since UBB let people change their displayed names but vB didn't - people got temporarily stuck with whatever names they had. Mod positions, however, did not carry over and had to be reassigned.
This lead to a bit of a pickle involving Vaporeon911 who was using the name "SmoothCriminal" on the UBB and I guess there was another unrelated "SmoothCriminal" post-transfer completely unrelated who they accidentally remodded instead.

Chicken Winger Mew always stood out to me as being strange.

I liked Probation Smack and his Darkwing Duck avatar
