 * Crowned Shield Zamazenta is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.
 ===Origin===
-Zamazenta may be based on {{wp|King Arthur}}'s shield, known as {{wp|Excalibur#Arthur's_other_weapons|Wynebgwrthucher}} or Pridwen, and on one of the two {{wp|Chimera (mythology)|chimeras}} designed on the golden hilt of his sword Excalibur. Those two weapons were first named in ''{{wp|Culhwch and Olwen}}'', a Welsh {{wp|Matter of Britain|Arthurian tale}} about how the king slew the chief of the {{wp|Giants (Welsh folklore)|giants}}. It may also be based on the {{wp|Knights of the Round Table}}, characters under Arthur's order said to work with him to protect the British kingdom. Its relationship with Zacian may reference the relationship between King Arthur and his sister {{wp|Morgan le Fay}}.

 It may also be based on {{wp|Saint George}}, England's {{wp|patron saint}}, said to have killed a {{wp|Saint George and the Dragon|venomous dragon}}, often depicted using {{wp|Saint George's Cross}} on his shield, what may be the origin of the patterns on the mane of its Crowned Shield form. On top of that, Zamazenta may be based on the hero {{wp|Beowulf (hero)|King Beowulf}}, from the epic poem ''{{wp|Beowulf}}''.
