===Origin===
Dachsbun seems to be based on the {{wp|dachshund}} breed of dog, known for its elongated body and short legs, and various baked goods such as bread loaves, bread rolls, {{wp|bun}}s, {{wp|challah}}, {{wp|brioche}}, and {{wp|pretzel}}s. The two concepts together may be a pun on the phrase "{{wp|purebred}}" — a term used to recognise dogs of consistent genetic lineage — as it is pronounced like "pure bread". Its darker colors compared to [[Fidough|its pre-evolution]] may be a visual pun on the {{wp|Maillard Reaction}}, a chemical reaction that occurs in cooked foods that gives them their characteristic brown color and flavor. This is reinforced by its signature ability, [[Well-Baked Body]].
