As per each of their {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Scarlet}} [[Pokédex]] entries and [[Type|typing]], the Loyal Three may also draw inspiration from the common media trope: ''brawn vs brains vs beauty'', with Okidogi being the brawn (part {{t|Fighting}} type, “…Okidogi transformed and gained a powerful phisique”), Munkidori being the brains (part {{t|Psychic}} type, “It stimulated Munkidori’s brain…”), and Fezandipiti being the beauty (part {{t|Fairy}} type, “Fezandipiti owes its beautiful looks…”). | As per each of their {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Scarlet}} [[Pokédex]] entries and [[Type|typing]], the Loyal Three may also draw inspiration from the common media trope: ''brawn vs brains vs beauty'', with Okidogi being the brawn (part {{t|Fighting}} type, “…Okidogi transformed and gained a powerful phisique”), Munkidori being the brains (part {{t|Psychic}} type, “It stimulated Munkidori’s brain…”), and Fezandipiti being the beauty (part {{t|Fairy}} type, “Fezandipiti owes its beautiful looks…”). | ||
Additionally, the Loyal Three appear to share a thematic tie to the number eight. This may be because the character ''8'' looks like a set of chains. Eight is also considered a lucky number in many Asian cultures, including Japanese, which aligns with the trio's naming convention and role. Notably, there are eight complete chains worn by the three: Okidogi has three in its scarf, Munkidori has one in its headband, and Fezandipiti has four in its belt. The group's shared base HP stat of 88 can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for やばい ''yabai'', which can mean "terrible" or "dangerous", referencing their true nature as greedy, vicious thieves. Conversely, 88 can also be read as goroawase for ぱちぱち ''pachipachi'', the sound of clapping. This could reference the trio's misinterpreted role as heroes in their story. {{ga|Pecharunt}}, often viewed as the leader of the Loyal Three, also shares the same base HP stat of 88; all of its other stats are 88 as well, except for it's Defense, which is 160, a multiple of 8.
