* No other Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Pururiru and its evolution.

* Pururiru and its {{p|Burungel|evolution}}, along with {{p|Kenhorou}}, are the only [[Generation V]] Pokémon that have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]].

* Even though Pururiru and its evolution's species are the ''Floating Pokémon'', and Pururiru has been seen floating in the anime, they don't have the ability [[Levitate (ability)|Levitate]]. This is even more notable due to the fact that Levitate's japanese name is ''Floating''.

Pururiru and its evolution were most likely inspired by the {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a {{wp|jellyfish}} {{wp|youkai}} that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they was inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Its design is inspired by the jellyfish and {{wp|Victorian fashion|Victorian-style}} monarch attire: the male form's appearance based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's.
