Trivia

• No other Pokémon have the same type combination as Pururiru and its evolution.

Origin

Pururiru is based off of a jellyfish or more likely a squid. Several appendages on its body resemble old-fashioned clothing, such as ruffs and coat-tails; thus, Pururiru may also be based off of archetypical "ghost children" frequently seen in the media.
