>>39247243Probably one of the most likely origins behind the moustache. As Compass Pokémon, it wouldn't be weird if it was subtly designed to be a hiker Pokémon.
It also works as Moai head/living statue, so comparisons with other kind of statues like Pakal, olmec, and tikis... are valid too.
It have a paternal and protective personality too:
>Protects a hiker from the cold (XY)>Gives you a max potion for free (SM)>Saves an ace trainer when she got hurt (SM)>Acts as a mother duck with ducklings (TCG)>Father's day Pokémon (official Twitter account)It's not a bad guy at all.
tl;dr: not racist
