I noticed my edit got reverted because of pronunciation... a pun doesn't have to be pronounced correctly to still exist; I'm pretty sure the first part of Magearna's name is a reference to "magic" or "mage", considering Magearna is literally a metal magic caster. The play on words is almost certainly magic/mage combined with gear and machina. Not sure what the specifications are for the "Name origin" section but this isn't the only Pokemon whose name pun is pronounced differently than their root word(s). In fact, its virtually all Pokemon with name puns. --[[User:Thekillernacho|Thekillernacho]] ([[User talk:Thekillernacho|talk]]) 13:30, 22 September 2017 (UTC) | I noticed my edit got reverted because of pronunciation... a pun doesn't have to be pronounced correctly to still exist; I'm pretty sure the first part of Magearna's name is a reference to "magic" or "mage", considering Magearna is literally a metal magic caster.

:Name origins have to make some sort of sense. How exactly is Magearna associated with magic? (outside of being a Fairy-type, I guess). [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 17:53, 22 September 2017 (UTC) | |||
