I think those actually are just that: coincidences. You're basing a lot of those assumptions on the English names, while the Japanese names suggest no such basis. I also think Oshawott's name is meant to be pronounced like "ocean" rather than "ocelot". And appearance-wise, Oshawott is clearly more similar to a sea otter than to a marine otter. And Tepig clearly comes from "tepid" and "pig" rather than tapir; again, it very clearly looks like a pig, while tapirs look far different. --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 12:03, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
