Quoted By:
>Xurkitree: Jan Kabel II
pun on picrel, since the Polish word for "cable" rhymes with "Paweł", the polonized form of the second part of his pontifical name
>Kartana: Papierz
another papal pun, if you change the "ż" at the end of "papież" to "rz", you end up with a derivate of our word for "paper"
>Incineroar: Cap'n Crunch
since it looks like a cereal tiger and has fangs
>Alakazam: Cereal Killa
pretty self-explanatory
>Ribombee: Bob Biedron
pun on our most famous gay politician - his last name is a derivate of our word for "ladybug", and since Ribombee is Bug/Fairy, the pun kinda let itself in
>Palossand - Abdul
Sandygast = lit. sandy guest in German -> we have a lot of sandy guests in Europe these days
