Trivia
- Klink and its evolutionary relatives are currently the only pure Steel-type Pokémon related by evolution.
- Klink represents June in the Unova horoscope.
- Klink and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Electric-type Pokémon able to learn ThunderShock and Charge.
Origin
Klink is based on a pair of interlocking gears, more specifically either spur, helical, or herringbone gears. The Klink line's Shiny coloration may have been based on copper gears, since their noses have turned green as copper does when it oxidizes into such compounds as copper carbonate, forming a patina. Klink also resembles the simplest concept of the perpetual motion machine, as it is just two gears which repeatedly spin each other.
Name origin
Klink is a corruption of clink (onomatopoeia for light metal striking a surface). It may also involve link, possibly referring to how the two gears are connected.
Giaru is derived from gear.
