Hatterene may be based on the common belief in folklore that a witch's power is connected to their hair. Its appearance may be based on a witch's ladder, which features knotted, corded, and/or beaded hair used to form a magic charm. | |||
Due to its connection with Grimmsnarl, the name of its exclusive [[G-Max Move]] that alludes to discipline and full female gender ratio, Hatterene may be inspired by the {{wp|Coco (folklore)|Cuca}}, the female counterpart of a {{wp|bugbear}} depicted as a forest witch, mentioned in lullabies and used in some cultures to frighten children that do not want to sleep or stay quiet. Its appearance may be inspired by {{wp|Harionago}}, a female ghoul from Japanese folklore described as a beautiful woman that uses its extremely long hair tipped with thorn-like barbs to attack. | Due to its connection with Grimmsnarl, the name of its exclusive [[G-Max Move]] that alludes to discipline and full female gender ratio, Hatterene may be inspired by the {{wp|Coco (folklore)|Cuca}}, the female counterpart of a {{wp|bugbear}} depicted as a forest witch, mentioned in lullabies and used in some cultures to frighten children that do not want to sleep or stay quiet.
