 ===Origin===
-Goldeen appears to be based on a {{wp|goldfish}}, specifically the {{wp|tosakin}} (i.e. the curly faintail goldfish) due to its red and white scales and flat tail. It may also be based on the  {{wp|Kōhaku (fish)|kōhaku}} breed of {{wp|koi}} fish. Its billowing tail and prominent red lips give it a feminine appearance reminiscent of a {{wp|queen}} wearing {{wp|lipstick}} and a {{wp|dress}}. Its horn may be a reference to {{wp|Matsya}} - a giant horned fish that is one of the avatars assumed by the Hindu deity {{wp|Vishnu}}.
