===Origin===
At first glance, Conkeldurr's brutal humanoid appearance suggests inspiration from {{wp|ogre}}s of folklore. {{p|Timburr}}'s Pokédex entry supports that it and its evolutions are based on {{wp|construction worker}}s. Due to its clown nose and buff body, it may have also been based on a muscleman {{wp|Glossary of 'carny' slang|carnie}} from a {{wp|Sideshow|carnival sideshow}}. It also seems to be based on an elderly person since it has a gray tuft under its chin and uses its pillars as walking canes.
