===Origin===
Mareep appears to be simply based on the lamb of a {{wp|sheep}}. It is likely that its electric aspect and Ability comes from how wool builds up static charges and may also be based on the {{wp|golden fleece}} in Greek and Roman mythology. It, and its evolutions, may also have been based on the title of the science fiction novel ''{{wp|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?}}''.
