Spoink needed an evolution, and they really liked Spoink. Also I always felt like the name "Wizpig" must've somehow been an inspiration

Why is it called Grumpig if nothing about it's demeanor, expression or dex entries suggest it is grumpy? Could they just not think of a name for this shitmon or something?

Gen 3 repeated a lot of Gen 1's tropes (another kingler, another magikarp, another mushroom with spore, etc.) Grumpig was the "another Hypno", with virtually the same stat spread. Also he might've been the only pokemon with Magic Coat in Gen 3 but I could be wrong about that.

They absolutely just did not bother when coming up with the english name for him. His japanese name isn't much better, it's basically Oinkpig (using the japanese word for oinking and the english word for pig)

It's possible what happened is when they were brainstorming they came up with Grunpig (Grunt + Pig), thought that sounded stupid but immediately hit on Grumpig because of it, and thought that was good enough.

This thing is barely found in any pokemon game either, the only two normal locations the line has are a one off route spot you can easily skip

Also they are mediocre ability, typing, and stat wise even for their debut generation

I only remember spoons because of its dex entry and the anime. Grumping would benefit from a regional form and evolution

Unlikely, I don't think there were any gaijin working at gamefreak in gen 3

When you really look hard at all the facts surrounding Grumpig in its gen of introduction, you come to realize there was no point and it was just random shitmon dex filler.

this is basically it i think. spoink is great but clearly not a single-stage mon, so they shat this out and called it a day

They couldn't let spoink keep looking great as it wasn't meant to be shilled, so they ruined it intentionally.
