Rowap -> Rowan Plant

Not just the word "Rowan". This is because Japanese loanwords tend to contract loanwords. This also includes Pokémon (ポケモン, pokemon, short for pocket monster). Another example is motorcycle = オートバイ = ootobai, derived and contracted from motorbike.

Rowap = rowan plant = ロワップ (rowappu), shortened from ロワンプラント(rowanpuranto).

That's some nice research there. TTEchidna 21:51, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Damage?

How much recoil damage does the Jaboca Berry deal to a physical attacker? --JacobCrystal 04:41, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
