* Skiddo and {{p|Trubbish}} are the only Pokémon that have an {{wp|Diaeresis (diacritic)|umlaut}} in their German name. | |||
===Origin=== | ===Origin=== | ||
Skiddo is based on a {{wp|goat}} kid, possibly a {{wp|bharal}} or {{wp|Dwarf blue sheep|dwarf bharal}} due to its horns. It is also based on a bike, as it can be ridden and has {{wp|Bicycle handlebar#Riser|riser bar}}-like horns. The grass that grows upon it may originate from {{wp|Pan (god)|Pan}} or {{wp|Faunus}}, gods of nature who are half-goat, half-human. The grass could also be a reference to the traditional {{wp|yule goat}} figures in northern Europe made of hay. | Skiddo is based on a {{wp|goat}} kid, possibly a {{wp|bharal}} or {{wp|Dwarf blue sheep|dwarf bharal}} due to its horns.
