Dosydon's name is deceptively complex. The ''Do'' part that is at the beginning may be from the word 土 ''do'', which is Japanese for ''ground/soil'', or 怒 ''do'', which means ''anger'', or ど ''do'', the Japanese prefix that makes a noun sound stronger; サイ ''sai,'' Japanese for rhinoceros; and ''don | Dosydon's name is deceptively complex. The ''Do'' part that is at the beginning may be from the word 土 ''do'', which is Japanese for ''ground/soil'', or 怒 ''do'', which means ''anger'', or ど ''do'', the Japanese prefix that makes a noun sound stronger; サイ ''sai,'' Japanese for rhinoceros; and ''don'', a Greek word meaning tooth, commonly used in the names of dinosaurs. "Rhyperior" comes from the "Rhy" of its pre-evolutions and "superior", because it is much more powerful than its pre-evolutions. | ||
