:::Oh, and an addendum to the Jimi Hendrix thing. Hiker Jim is not a reference. If it was Guitarist Jim, you could infer it. If it was Guitarist ''Jimi'', then it would be pretty obviously a reference. Nearly nobody spells their name like that, and Hendrix is by and large the only person of heavy acclaim to use that spelling. And if there was also a group of trainers named Jack, Eric, and Ginger, one could make a reasonable assumption that it was an allusion to the band Cream because of the Jimi Hendrix reference. I still don't know if this passes the test, I just thought this was an important distinction to make.

Another user has removed this line of trivia from this page for being speculation: | |||
<nowiki>** The English names of the {{p|Zubat}} and {{p|Golbat}} Master Trainers, West and Keaton, are possible references to {{wp|Adam West}} and {{wp|Michael Keaton}}, both of whom have played the role of {{wp|Batman}}.</nowiki> | |||
I do not see a reason to remove this, and would like to re-add it, as many trivia sections on the site include speculation, including several other points of trivia in the section this was removed from. [[User:Minibug|Minibug]] ([[User talk:Minibug|talk]]) 18:45, 20 April 2024 (UTC) | |||
