Trivia
- Chimecho's index number is the very last in the Generation III games (excluding glitch Pokémon, and Unown forms), even after Deoxys. This may imply that Chimecho was added late into the games development. However, this only applies to the handheld games and Pokémon Colosseum; in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, this honor belongs to Munchlax.
- Coincidentally, Chimecho's National Pokédex number and the number of the episode it first appeared in and the one James caught it, are the same: 358.
- Chimecho is the lightest fully-evolved Pokémon at 2.2 lbs (1 kg).
Origin
Chimecho is based on a Japanese furin wind chime.
Name origin
Chimecho's name is a combination of chime and echo. On the other hand, considering Chimecho's association with feelings, the species’ name may be derived from kimochi (気持ち), a Japanese word meaning “feeling”, “mood”, or “sensation”. In fact, the species’ name may result from an alteration of the syllables and phonetic values of this term (from ki-mo-chi to chi-mi-ko). Chirean is based on ちりん chirin, the Japanese onomatopoeia of a chime and 風鈴 fūrin, wind chime.
