===Origin===
Granbull appears to be based on a {{wp|Bulldog}}. Bulldogs are often depicted as being vicious which may explain Granbull's thick collar and wristband/shackle-like markings. Its intimidating appearance is reminiscent of various grotesque mythical creatures such as {{wp|goblin}}s and {{wp|orc}}s, while its {{pkmn|category}}, [[Fairy (Egg Group)|Egg Group]] and {{t|Fairy|type}} may reference the {{wp|Cù-sìth}}, a creature in {{wp|Celtic mythology}} whose name means ''dog fairy''.
