Evolution

Trivia

Wynaut is the only Baby Pokémon that evolves by level into its evolved form, under level 30.

Origin

Name origin

Wynaut's name is pronounced identically to phrase "why not?" Its Japanese name is almost homophonous with the word そうなの sō na no, which means "really?" The French name seems to be based on a repitition of "Okay." The German name may be a corruption of "It's so."

Its name, when paired with the Japanese name of its evolution, Wobbuffet, ソーナンス Sonans, makes for a potential perpetual conversation of "really?" followed by "that's the way it is," and so on, as seen in Camp Pikachu.
