>>19744078pawniard: Komatana may be a combination of 駒 koma (a piece in the board game Shogi), 細切れ komagire (small pieces), and 刀 katana (sword) or 小刀 kogatana (knife).
Bisharp: Kirikizan may be a combination of 切り刻む kirikizamu (to mince) and 斬 zan (to cut or slay).
my moonspeak is shit and if bulbapedia is right then bisharp has nothing to do with chess in terms of name
but pawniards says otherwise cause i know shogi is the japanese equivalent of chess.
once again thats just if bulbapedia is correct
