Trivia

Origin

Gamagaru appears to be a combination of a Surinam Toad tadpole and a loudspeaker. The Surinam Toad is an aquatic amphibian whose backs are covered in pockets that hold its eggs, which may have inspired Gamagaru's spherical "speakers" on its body. Its Pokedex entry also mentions the fact that it creates vibrations underwater, also like the Surinam.
