Trivia

Origin

Furret appears to be based on a ferret.

Name origin

Furret's name is a combination of ferret and furry. It is more similar to a ferret than Sentret. Its Japanese name is a combination of 大 ō, big, and 鼬 itachi, weasel, and may also include 尾 o, tail, and 立つ tatsu, stand, just like Sentret's Japanese name. The French for ferret happens to be Furet, yet the French corruption is actually Beech Marten; although the actual meaning implied by the corruption seems to be snoop.
