:::::On whether or not I think bulette is actually a plausible design inspiration, I don't see anything actually sharklike about it. Calling it a "land shark" seems to only be because of it being a predator that "swims" through the ground, which there's no reference of Garchomp doing. Most things mention how it flies instead. I don't think it's plausible and I'd remove it, dubious copyright or not. <small>[[User:Glik|glik]]</small><sup>[[User talk:Glik|glak]]</sup> 23:46, 5 January 2017 (UTC) | :::::On whether or not I think bulette is actually a plausible design inspiration, I don't see anything actually sharklike about it.

:::::: It is sad you seem skeptical about Garchomp being inspired on a shark since it is really visible; regardless, you can easily read about it on, not only his but also on Gabite's and Gible's, Biology section since all of them describe such features in detail. Most of the names in other languages seem to point as well, some include literally 'land shark' in their meaning. About it flying, I'm not sure how much research on origin you do, but yes, that's probably another link to sharks, but I won't waste my time explaining it here; also, try not to take dex entries too literally. | :::::: It is sad you seem skeptical about Garchomp being inspired on a shark since it is really visible; regardless, you can easily read about it on, not only his but also on Gabite's and Gible's, Biology section since all of them describe such features in detail.

(('''EDIT'''): uh, sorry, I was half asleep when I wrote this, I see now that you were referring to the Landshark. Well, Bulette has been around for 40+ years, it had many different designs. But Bulette's concept still one of a shark/dinosaur like terrestrial creature, just as Garchomp, which is one of the main points here.) | ||

Why was only Garchomp's the one that was removed? Both of you didn't even check their pages to see if they were all right. It seems both you and Pumpking have been failling to do some basic stuff. | ||
:::::: Sorry if I sound rude, but having you on my page calling me a liar, and then trying to explain yourself with non-sensical excuses. Sorry, but that really feels offensive to me and is looking more like a personal attack. I REALLY hope it isnt't, since I'm just a member adding plausible origins accordingly to the rules. | :::::: Sorry if I sound rude, but having you on my page calling me a liar, and then trying to explain yourself with non-sensical excuses.
