Origin
Based off a rodent and a chestnut. Also, the whole line takes inspiration from a soldier or knight, which hopefully will become more clear in its final evolution. CoolDudeAl (talk) 01:19, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
- The bōgu is Quilladin's Japanese name is also a reference to the French [bogue], the hard, green covering of a chestnut still on the tree. Could someone please edit this in? Arpha (talk) 20:10, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
- Is there something I'm missing here, because I'm not sure how you're getting "soldier/knight" from the Chespin line? If anything, I'd mark the line as an Oliver Twist style upbeat-happy-go-lucky ragamuffin. (Also, I'm pretty sure that the line is based on a hedgehog, which is not a rodent. So, there's that.)

Name origin
Paladin, while the spelling fits, sounds like a very unlikely candidate for the name. I think the "ladin" part comes from the word laden (meaning heavily loaded or weighed down).--Gou (talk) 01:08, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
- The middle stages of the Kalos starters appear to be pretty heavily based on the generic fantasy game power trio of fighter, mage, and thief. Paladins are usually a subset or offshoot of fighters, so it's not as unlikely as you seem to think. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 03:17, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
- Except that logic would make frogadier the fighter, because that's pretty clearly from brigadier, leaving Quilladin either mage or thief, in which case I might suggest "Aladdin"? I'm with Goukazaru on Paladin seeming unlikely, since what we know of Quilladin doesn't sound very "fighter"-y. Since I see the chespin line as being the thief/rogue in this scenario, especially since there is a suggestion that part of the origin on Chespin's name is *urchin*, and the happy-go-lucky street urchin doesn't seem the type to evolve into a paladin.
