Ludicolo just seems to be a mix of a million different unrelated things. And somehow it pulls ALL of them off.
Just look at it's 'name origin' section
>Ludicolo may be a combination of ludic (aimlessly playful) or ludicrous (laughable or absurd) and colocynth (a plant that bears a round, yellow and green fruit). Colo may be an anagram of loco, the Spanish word for crazy. The name may also come from paludicolous (inhabiting a swamp or marsh). Alternatively, it may be a reference to the Spanish word ridículo meaning ridiculous, just as Lombre is a reference to the Spanish word hombre.
There's so much random shit boiled into this Mexican dancing pineapple lilypad kappa, but I don't think you could remove any of it without ruining the design.
