Wrestler?

Based on its big strong appearence and it's Fighting secondary type, I'm wondering if it could be based off a Wrestler like how Futachimaru has been stated to resemble a Samurai in training. Also, while I'm at it, could Janoby and Tsutarja be based off of French royalty wiht its overall majestic appearence and attitude? --Landfish7 12:31, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

It's pretty much confirmed that Janoby is based off French royalty. n:Pokémon Pia information begins to surface. Due to your statement below, then it probably is. --SnorlaxMonster 13:12, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Name Origin

Could its name also be based of the Chinese word for wrestle, jiāo? --Landfish7 12:37, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Well, it's meant to be Chinese, so it probably is based off a Chinese word. And it does look like a wrestler. So I'd say that it is. --SnorlaxMonster 13:12, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
So can I add it? I'm assuming so. --Landfish7 22:06, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
Probably, but comparing with the sound of "chāo" or "qiāo", "jiāo" doesn't really sound close to chao. Also, the Chinese word for wrestling is actually 摔角 shuāi​jiǎo (also 摔跤 shuāijiāo). The word "跤" itself only means "to fall" or "to tumble". 神奇超龍 12:43, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Has anybody noted the similarities between Chaobu and Blaziken?

I was just wondering if anybody noticed the similarities between Chaobu and Blaziken. First, it is a dual Fire/Fighting type and it has rings on its wrists. Blaziken remake with a pig? Am I the only one who sees this? --Pokemon26 00:26, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

I see no resemblance whatsoever other than the typing Ataro 00:39, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
