Hamster ?

Seeing as its got a tail, I think it's more of a Gerbil rather than a Hamster. --Unbirth (talk) 19:40, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

The face and body scream hamster far more than gerbil, but the tail is obviously gerbil. I think it would be best to say it draws inspiration from both rodents. GreatLiver (talk) 22:12, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
I see it as more of a Raichu with whiskers. Maybe we should say that's what it's based on. Me, Hurray! (talk) 22:54, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Why would a Pokémon be based on another Pokémon? Technically yes there are the typical Pikachu-type clones, but that's already in the trivia. I agree that it is probably based on both hamster and gerbil, since hamsters obviously don't have that kind of tail. Another safe bet would be to just say that it's based on domesticated rodents. Rai Marshall (talk) 00:42, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

That seems too general though. I think the best think is to say hamsters and gerbils. Besides the tail, no one can really tell them apart anyway, so it makes sense that Gamefreak would combine elements of both.CoolDudeAl (talk) 05:46, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Possible name origin

Dedenne is most likely a combination of denki, electricity, and antennae. Soincfunt (Talk) 00:14, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Someone updated the name origin to antenne. While this may or may not be the origin for the English name (depending on how it gets pronounced in the anime, side games, etc), I do think the Japanese origin is simply antennae, since the kana are pronounced de-de-n-ne. If they were transliterating the French antenne, it ought to be simply de-de-n. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 21:13, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Bit to add:

A further description was in the press release, which would be good to add:

"By emitting radio waves from its antenna-shaped whiskers, Dedenne can communicate with far-off allies. It can also plug its tail into outlets to drain electricity from them." ----samm :D 15:43, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

I'll add it to the special abilities section. --Pokemaster97 15:47, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

sugi art

has the decent quality sugi art been uploaded yet or is it just taking ages to appear? 0danmaster0 (talk) 16:27, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

The new one has been uploaded, it just takes Bulbapedia some time to catch up with the Archives. --Pokemaster97 16:31, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

English

Is Dedenne also the English name? Or has that not been revealed yet? griffindaly (talk) 19:57, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Dedenne is its English name, it was the only one to keep its Japanese name. --Pokemaster97 20:00, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
