Farfetch'd is based on a duck. It may be inspired by the Japanese saying 「{{tt|鴨が葱を背負って来る|Kamo ga negi wo shotte kuru}}」, literally translating to "a duck comes bearing {{wp|Welsh onion|bunching onions}}". As a saying, it means "something surprising but convenient". The phrase can be shortened simply to 「{{tt|鴨葱|kamo negi}}」. | Farfetch'd is based on a {{wp|duck}}.
