Should it not be mentioned in the article that Noivern evolves from Spewpa, or has this not yet been confirmed. Is it also not noteworthy that so far, it is the only bat-based Pokémon without "bat" at the end of its name (excluding Spewpa.

Name
Isn't the name Noivern? GreyDragon (talk) 16:17, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
- I can't even read.
Regarding name origin, Onbān is a combination of on and wyvern (uaibān), not bang.
- Also, the French name is from bruit and wyverne, and the German name is from UHF and Fafnir.--Lemonade Mouth (talk) 18:22, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
Species
According to the press release, Noivern is the Sound Wave Pokémon.--Lemonade Mouth (talk) 18:38, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
Origin
It appears, from the color scheme, furry ruff, and affinity for fruit, to be partially based on flying fox [1], with other features of bats added, such as the nose and large ears. The connection makes sense, since bats are commonly associated with sound because of their echolocation. Zakitano (talk) 19:53, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
Another possible origin
Due to its association with sound and the design of its ears, Noivern could possible be based of a boombox or a sub-woofer. CyberCat5555 (talk) 22:06, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
ZuBAT, GolBAT, CroBAT, WooBAT, SwooBAT, Spewpa & Noivern?
Should it not be mentioned in the article that Noivern evolves from Spewpa, or has this not yet been confirmed. Is it also not noteworthy that so far, it is the only bat-based Pokémon without "bat" at the end of its name (excluding Spewpa. [And even if Spewpa is counted, it would still be the only bat-based Pokémon family without "bat at the end of its name"])?
