Sandy Shocks is based on {{wp|Magneton}}. The tufts around and on its body may be {{wp|iron filings}} or {{wp|ironsand}} (as suggested by its name and typing), and they resemble the messy and unkempt hair that cavemen are typically depicted to have. Its stilt-like legs and elongated tail may serve to reference dinosaurs of the {{wp|Diplodocidae}} family. | Sandy Shocks is based on {{wp|Magneton}}.

Its dual {{2t|Electric|Ground}} typing may be a pun on electrical {{wp|ground}}, due to it touching the ground rather than levitating like Magneton. | Its dual {{2t|Electric|Ground}} typing may be a pun on electrical {{wp|ground}}, due to it touching the ground rather than levitating like Magneton. | ||
