::''[[Wikipedia:My Neighbour Totoro|My Neighbour Totoro]]'' is a Hayao Miyazaki film, and is quite well known in Japanese pop culture. It's possible there could be some connection between Snorlax's design and Totoro. The colours are quite similar afterall.--[[User:Bardock|Bar]][[User_Talk:Bardock|dock]] 00:41, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

:::Given how little like an actual bear Snorlax resembles, but his obvious similarities to Totoro, not to mention how Munchlax greatly resembles the smaller creatures that followed Totoro, I would say that both of them are far more inspired by that film than any actual bears. Totoro himself was partially based on bears, but Hayao himself said that he wanted to avoid the creature being too ursine in design, so he mixed it with other animals. And naturally there's the fact that Snorlax's natural sleeping position is very akin to Totoro's debut in the film, laying on his back blocking a clearing in dense forest foliage, sleeping. It really surprises me that Totoro isn't listed in the Origin section. [[User:Einbjorn|Einbjorn]] ([[User talk:Einbjorn|talk]]) 05:37, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

In the trivia section, it says snorlax is the Pokémon with to highest base stat that can hatch out of an [[Egg]]. So you can breed with a snorlax and and get another snorlax? Not a [[munchlax]].--[[User:Ethan7|Ethan7]] ([[User talk:Ethan7|talk]]) 16:50, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
