+== Studio Ghibli a Possible origin for Eevee ==
+I know that if someone references pop culture as a pokemon origin in the biology section it will get removed due to the legal implications/speculation.
+However, This topic has been brought up alot in Japanese forums in that Eevee shares many similarites with the Studio Ghibli Fox squirrel which debuted in
+.
+Below is a link comparing Teto the Fox Squirrel(1984) to Eevee(1996):

+They both share the same body type: standard quadruped build, mane, large ears, and fluffy tail.
+What makes this coincidence special is the creator of this character is none other than Hayao Miyazaki. He is venerated in Japan as one of the greatest animators
+who ever lived. Foreign critics have given him the moniker "The Japanese Walt Disney".

+Teto the fox squirrel(kitsunerisu/キツネリス) debuted in Studio Ghibi's first ever movie production "Nausicaa of the valley of the wind". This movie marked the creation of
+Studio Ghibli. This animation studio has been cited as on of the most important forces/inspiration regarding anime and pop culture. This creature is said to be
+based on fennec fox, much like Eevee is speculated to be.

+I brought this up in your forums before here is the link to the thread:

+I apologize for disturbing bulbagarden staff, but this reference to pop culture seems too blatant considering who Hayao Miyazaki is viewed in Japan.
