Right now the article says that "Koko" is the sound a chicken makes. Just want to point out that it is more likely to derive from the headland [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koko_Head Koko Head], given that this area is the real-life basis of where the Pokemon apparently resides in-game and the role it holds in that location. I'd edit the article with this info myself but it appears to be locked at the moment.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C5%AB Seems to share a few similarities with the feathered god of war, Ku.] Think this should be added, or should we wait til we know the other island guardians first to confirm there is a theme there and it isn't coincidence? --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 06:15, 1 July 2016 (UTC) | [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C5%AB Seems to share a few similarities with the feathered god of war, Ku.] Think this should be added, or should we wait til we know the other island guardians first to confirm there is a theme there and it isn't coincidence? --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 06:15, 1 July 2016 (UTC) | ||
