>>56212507An old thread here, someone posted the content of a Japanese blog explaining the origin or certain puns of Pokemon in their original language, the most mindblow for me was Slowbro, apart from a yokai it is based on old Kaijus from Ultraman, or Magmar, Electabuzz, Jynx are festival masks, Tentacruel and Starmie are an enemy-hero duo of Ultraman.
Someone here must have the number of that thread, I could also search my files and make a thread later. It is fun to know the origins of these monsters, and there are people from other parts of the world who can provide more information.
