It's cool how all of these are based on youkai or some other Japanese cultural thing.

Vulpix & Ninetales = nine-tailed fox
Growlithe & Arcanine = Komainu/Shishi
Greninja = ninja
Mawile = Futakuchi-Onna
Snorunt = Zashiki Warashi
Glalie = Oni mask
Froslass = Yuki-Onna
Dunsparce = Tsuchinoko
Golisopod = armored samurai
Chingling & Chimecho = Japanese bell and wind chime
Bronzor & Bronzong = story of the bronze mirror and bell
Oricorio = fan dancer
Meowth = Maneki-Neko
Lombre = Kappa
Nuzleaf = Tengu
Phantump = Kodama
Ampharos = Yugong
Kartana = origami samurai
Celesteela = Princess Kaguya

I don't think Ariados is based on one, but it can work as a Tsuchigumo.
Mimikyu and Shedinja don't totally fit outside being spooky ghosts, unless they have some basis I don't know. Similar with Regigigas. The Magnemite line being there is the weirdest thing though.

Is Stunfisk really that big of a merch machine? I'm pretty sure it's one of the most hated Gen 5 mons.

Shedinja is just japanese and spooky enough in general I guess (because cicadas). Regigigas has to be some yokai giant. Or Nurikabe?
Magnemite is pretty strange though. I'd say Tsuskumogami, but Klefki or Honedge woul've been the better picks there.

Definitly not that. Whiscash is based on the catfish myths, Stunfisk is like flatfish that hides at sea bottoms. Stunfisk is another weird one for the doesn't seem to based on a youkai or other Jap thing. Unless it's something obscure no one has ever thought of yet.
