===Origin===
===Origin===
Sandy Shocks is based on {{p|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. Its tail may also draw inspiration from {{wp|transmission tower}}s, with it specifically resembling an {{wp|Insulator (electricity)|electrical insulator}}. Its presence among the ancient Paradox Pokémon despite being composed of modern objects may be a reference to {{wp|out-of-place artifact}}s.

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.
