Trivia

  • In the anime, with the exception of Pike Queen Lucy, all of the Milotic that appeared were under the ownership of a Pokémon Coordinator or at least a part-time Coordinator.
  • In many ways, Milotic is the Hoenn counterpart of Kanto's Gyarados. Both are the evolved forms of incredibly weak fish Pokémon, and both appear in times of conflict, Gyarados to destroy, Milotic to becalm.
  • Milotic is the only Pokémon so far to have a particular gender difference visible only in its shiny form; The female Milotic has blue eyebrows while the males' are red. This applies to Platinum Version only. Also, the difference is not visible from the back.

Origin

Milotic may be based loosely on sirens, mythical creatures who can hypnotize with their voice to make men attracted to them. An argument can also be made for the possibility it is loosely based on The Loch Ness Monster. Its similarity to Dragonair suggests as basis in sea serpents or sea dragons as well. It has anatomical similarities with the oarfish, with a pale, elongated body and extended, red dorsal fins.

Name origin

Milotic's name may be a combination of aquatic or melodic and Milo, as in the sculpture Venus de Milo, which is known for being an example of beauty, and like Milotic, possesses no arms. Its Japanese name may be a combination of the aforementioned Milo and the Greek καλλονή kalloni, meaning beauty or Χάρις charis, beauty, elegance, charm, or grace. See also Charites.

Milotic also have a wide range of healing and defensive moves, so its name may also be a variation on mitotic, descriptive of the healing process of a body part through mitosis.

In other languages

  • German: Milotic
  • French: Milobellus - From Venus de Milo and bella (Italian for "pretty").
  • Korean: 밀로틱 Milotic
