===Origin===
Phantump is probably based on the stump of a {{wp|kodama (spirit)|kodama}}, the spirits of trees that sometimes inhabit old aged trees. It is also similar to other types of {{wp|List of tree deities|tree}} and {{wp|List of nature deities|nature}} spirits and deities, such as {{wp|dryad}}s. Another inspiration could be [[Skull Kid]] from The Legend of Zelda series, children who get lost and die in the Lost Woods turn into Skull Kids.
