>>54474759>In medieval times a lot of fighting manuals show knights fighting with snails. We don't really know why but the assumption is that it was one of early memes/shitposts.>There's a specie of snails with shells and scales on their body made from iron that live near volcanic vents in ocean.> Knight...snails...> Iron...snails...volcanic...> It also helps that said snail is reddish in color, and no Slugma/Magcargo is not referencing it because said snail was discovered after release of GS.I would say that there's quite a damn few things to connect these two concepts and make pretty damn cool Pokemahnz. You can even do some silly twist with it being ""convergent""/meme form of Escavaller, another Iron-clad snail Pokemon.
