Oshawott (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Oshawott is based on a {{wp|sea otter}} pup and {{wp|samurai}}<ref>http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/interview/irbj/sp/index5.html (dead link)</ref>. The way that Oshawott's shell rests on its belly resembles the way otters look when cracking open shells to eat. This shell also holds similarities with {{wp|Japanese war fan}}s, which were often used by samurai for defensive purposes.
