It does bear a resemblance to Baragon... And so does Nidoking! --[[User:Bad Grim|Bad Grim]] 21:24, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | It does bear a resemblance to Baragon... And so does Nidoking! --[[User:Bad Grim|Bad Grim]] 21:24, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | ||
:Unless pop culture is explicitly stated to be an origin by Pokémon, then no. - [[User:050294|050294]] 22:29, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | :Unless pop culture is explicitly stated to be an origin by Pokémon, then no. - [[User:050294|050294]] 22:29, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | ||
::Pokemon's origins are rarely "explicitly stated," so if that were our criteria we'd never get any origins at all. A better rule of thumb is "unless pop-culture as the origin is blindingly obvious." Sometimes it is, like with {{p|Wobbuffet}}, but in this case there's just not enough evidence. --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] 00:14, 8 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
:::I agree with you, but [[user:Sketch|Sketch]] says that unless it is explicitly stated it can not be added. That is why {{p|Ulgamoth}} is apparently not based on Mothra and that is just my, and many other user's, opinions. Meh. - [[User:050294|050294]] 23:51, 8 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
Look at the back, it's clearly at least SLIGHTLY based on Godzilla. After all, wouldn't the first Pokémon be? -- [[User:MrSpheal|MrSpheal]] 10:49, 21 January 2015 (UTC) | |||
