Origin

I'm willing to bet that Swirlix is based on cotton candy and a poodle of some kind, possibly a white standard poodle. It's feet look like dog paws and it even has it's tongue sticking out. And the motions of it in battle attacking kinda make me think it's based on an animal of some sort as well. Dialgafan1 (talk) 01:14, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Ability

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be スイートベール (Sweet VEIL) and not スイートペール (Sweet PALE), which doesn't make any sense at all.--Lemonade Mouth (talk) 07:46, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Feet

Do we have any information on why its official artwork does not have feet, but its ingame model does. Is it a forme difference or simply that its feet are hidden in the artwork? Is it worth mentioning in the trivia? Benjabby (talk) 16:12, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

No, it's not worth mentioning in trivia. A lot of Pokemon have features you can only see in one art form but not another. It's likely just Swirlix's positioning in the artwork that makes it look like it has no feet. Crystal Talian 16:42, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
  • I have added a high quality version of the 3D model of Swirlix derived from the screenshot where its "feet" are shown. Could this image be added to the page to showcase its appearance with "feet", much in the same way that the screenshot of the unsheathed Honedge was added to its respective page? Thanks--ShinyPatch (talk) 21:49, 29 July 2013 (UTC)
Thank you, but the pre-release screenshot is more than enough. Ataro (talk) 22:04, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Name origin

The English name "Swirlix" is a combination of swirl and a misspelling of licks. FalafelC (talk) 16:38, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Diet

Swirlix exclusively eats sweets. Me, Hurray! (talk) 13:45, 13 July 2013 (UTC)
