Trivia

  • Klinklang and its evolutionary relatives are the only pure Steel-type Pokémon related by evolution.
  • Klinklang and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Electric-type Pokémon able to learn ThunderShock.
  • Klinklang is the same height as its pre-evolution.
  • Klinklang is the only pokemon whose name is a combination of it's two previous evolutions.

Origin

Klinklang is based on interlocking gears, more specifically a combination of sun and planet gears, a bevel gear and an external gear. The Klink line's Shiny coloration may have been based on copper gears, as their noses have turned green as copper does when it oxidizes into such compounds as copper carbonate, forming a patina.

Name origin

Klinklang is derived from clink and clang, both of which its pre-evolutions are named after. Like Klink, part of its name may come from link. Gigigiaru is probably derived from ギア gia (gear).
