Infernape (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Infernape is based on a {{wp|monkey}}. The gold elements in his design as well as his Japanese name are most likely linked to Son Goku, the Japanese interpretation of the character {{wp|Sun Wukong}}. Sun Wukong is the main character in the Chinese epic {{wp|Journey to the West}} and is a monkey with powerful abilities. It is also similar to the {{wp|Vanara}}, a race of ape-like humanoids in the Hindu epic {{wp|Ramayana}}. It is most likely based off the martial art {{wp|Muay Thai}} which uses all the limbs and possibly {{wp|Monkey Kung Fu}}, another type of martial arts. It may have also be loosely based on {{wp|Crazy Monkey Defense}}, a boxing style that incorporated elements from other martial arts such as Muay Thai.
