 ===Origin===
 {{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Sandshrew and Sandslash}}
-Sandslash shares various physical traits with the {{wp|pangolin}}. It also takes elements from hedgehogs, porcupines and echidnas, due to having spikes instead of scales, and also in its coloration. The fact that it [[Rollout (move)|rolls into a ball of spikes to attack]] appears to have been inspired by [[en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic The Hedgehog|Sonic The Hedgehog]]). Both {{p|Sandshrew}} and Sandslash are mentioned to have poisonous claws, similar to how some species of the {{wp|shrew}} are poisonous.
