Trivia
- Probopass is tied with Registeel for the highest base Special Defense stat of all Steel-type Pokémon.
- As there is no strongly electromagnetic location in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, it is impossible to evolve Nosepass into a Probopass in these games. The same applies for Magnezone, Leafeon, and Glaceon. All have to be traded from Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum to be obtained.
- Due to the censor that prevents Pokémon with offensive nicknames being traded on the GTS, an English language Probopass cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in Pokémon Black and White.
- In A Windswept Encounter! Clemont uses a machine that detects Pokémon flowers which resembles a Probopass but without the moustache nor the Mini-Noses.
Origin
Probopass is based on the pukao-wearing moai statues of Easter Island and a compass magnet with iron filings attached to it. All of Probopass's noses are like the needles in a compass rose, with the big nose pointing North (as in some compasses where the North needle is the biggest), and the Mini-Noses pointing to the East, South, and West.
Its nasal compass may be based on the expression "follow one's nose", meaning "to trust to one's instincts". It also could be based on the ethmoid bone that is located between the nasal cavity and the brain, and is known to give some species their sense of direction via magnetoreception.
Name origin
Probopass may be a combination of proboscis and compass.
Dainose may be a combination of 大 dai (big) and nose, while Mini-Noses, which are called Chibinose (チビノーズ), are the opposite being a combination of chibi (small) and nose.
