Origin

Name origin
Luxray may be a combination of lux (Latin for light) and X-ray, referencing the mythological lynx's ability to see through solid objects.
Rentorar may be derived from レントゲン Röntgen (alternate name for the X-ray, named after its discoverer Wilhelm Röntgen) and 虎 tora (tiger), perhaps referencing the name Johannes Hevelius used for Lynx in his atlas, Tigris.
