 * Manectric is the same height as {{ga|Ethan}}. While many other Pokémon share this distinction, Manectric comes the closest to also weighing the same (Manectric weighs {{tt|88.6 lbs|40.2 kg}}, the Trainer weighs {{tt|88.2 lbs|40 kg}}).
 ===Origin===
-It may be based on a {{wp|maned wolf}} and a youkai of Japanese lore, the 雷獣 ''{{wp|raijū}}'', an elemental lightning creature that can take on the shape of various mammals, including a {{wp|tiger}}, {{wp|monkey}}, and blue {{wp|wolf}} wrapped in white and yellow lightning. Manectric is highly likely based on its wolf forme, while the Pokémon {{p|Raikou}} is based on its tiger forme. Its snout seems to also look like a {{wp|crocodile clip}}.
