>So you don't think it has anything to do with dragons at all? A lizard like thing who's name includes "ryu"? Any better ideas?

Go for the easy ones - 電流 is in the dictionary. Besides, it would be quite out of place compared to the rest of the family. - 振霖T 01:47, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I think it would be far better to identify the 'electric dragon' meaning through identifying the fragments - its the same as the English prefixes, infixes and suffixes. You can't disregard a meaning only because its not in the dictionary - all Japanese and English fragments are not in the dictionary and yet are used to form Pokemon names.

Could it have been inspired by a naked sheep? File:Ani475MS.gif Agent 448δ | DP | File:Ani282MS.gif 11:12, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
