Japanese name origin

Is it from 齧り付く (かじりつく), "to bite" and ガメ (based on kame, turtle)? --Chickasaurus (talk) 14:57, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

Snapping Turtle Origin

I think we should add the fact that it's based on an alligator snapping turtle to its Origin section. The long muscular tail, shell made up of numerous ridges, and focus on biting all point to an alligator snapping turtle as its basis. Wjwolfe (talk) 20:25, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

I would suggest that it might also be based off the red-eared slider/terrapin due to Galar being a UK analogue and this dex section - "It seems that some Trainers will release Drednaw back into the wild once they discover they can't handle it." In the UK they're an invasive species which became established due to people releasing pets. The red/orange markings on the side of Drednaw's head also resemble the red markings which the red-eared slider is named for :) Backagain 21:51, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

Korean Name Origin

갈가부기 is based off of 갉아먹다, which means to gnaw and 거북이, which means turtle.--Buddy002 (talk) 20:42, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
