According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori|Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Zweilous and its evolution family were originally intended to be cyborg dragons—part tank and part dragon. They were then scrapped until late in the game when they were revived and re-made to be based on {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}.
