* Pansage was first seen, together with {{p|Axew}}, as a toy featured in [[n:Movie 13, Bandai possibly reveal new Pokémon|two images seen July 2010]], but it wasn't named and nothing was known about it. In the beginning of August 2010, a fake leak of the September issue of CoroCoro showed its own version of this Pokémon. Pansage was officially revealed on August 22, 2010 by [[Pokémon Sunday]]. | * Pansage was first seen, together with {{p|Axew}}, as a toy featured in [[n:Movie 13, Bandai possibly reveal new Pokémon|two images seen July 2010]], but it wasn't named and nothing was known about it.

===Origin=== | |||
Pansage is based on a {{wp|monkey}} and a {{wp|tree}}; the fact that it is based on both may mean it might be based on the legends of {{wp|Monkey tree phenomenon|monkey trees}} or possibly a visual pun on {{wp|Colobinae|leaf monkeys}}. It, along with its two contemporaries, seems to be inspired by the {{wp|three wise monkeys}} motif; with its mouth open, Pansage represents "speak no evil". | Pansage is based on a {{wp|monkey}} and a {{wp|tree}}; the fact that it is based on both may mean it might be based on the legends of {{wp|Monkey tree phenomenon|monkey trees}} or possibly a visual pun on {{wp|Colobinae|leaf monkeys}}.
