====Name origin====
Hoppip's name is probably based on ''hop'' or ''hip-hop'' or ''hippity-hop'', indicating that it jumps or flies through the air. It may also come from ''pip'', a type of seed. The names of all stages of its evolutionary line are likely based on the phrase, "Just a hop, skip, and a jump away". Its Japanese name is a combination of 葉 ''ha'', leaf, and 根っ子 ''nekko'', root. 跳ねる ''haneru'', to jump or hop, and 羽 ''hane'', wing, may also be part of its name.
