That is a combination of words. That is also a portmaneau. Either word works, and whoever creates a "Name origin" section to any Pokémon can pick the word they prefer. Any edit wars as a result of a single word (which is not inappropriately used) will result in disciplinary action. | ||
2: Bulbapedia is making much more frequent use of Bots as of late, and while they are being run they do have a tendancy to slow down the server a bit. This is a regrettable side-effect of the use of bots; if the server starts to slow down, wait a few minutes for it to pass. The bots, however, are not evil prowling creatures that are negatively impacting the entire Bulbapedia; they are doing services which would be far too enormous for people to attempt under normal circumstances. | 2: Bulbapedia is making much more frequent use of Bots as of late, and while they are being run they do have a tendancy to slow down the server a bit.
