Talk:Flygon (Pokémon)

Frygon a mistake?

I don't exactly see how this is a mistake since R is used to represent both L and R when transliterating English into Japanese. Eszett 09:48, 1 January 2006 (CST)

It is considered a mistake because they quite obviously (though not necessarily) were aiming for Flygon when they set the romanisation for this Pokémon. (The exact romanisation, however, is furaigon, not Frygon or Flygon) - 振霖_T 08:19, 2 January 2006 (CST)

Is "Frygon" the actual trademarked name? Check out this banner from one of the Festas. I think this is worth looking into. --Argy 04:03, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Flygon Polygon

I thought part of Flygon's name came from its polygon wings. Yami 00:28, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Actually, the wings appear to have a good deal of curvature to them, unlike Vibrava, who does have polygonal wings.

Personally, I just thought that someone messed up and switched Flygon's name with Salamence. --Martonimos_{((Argh|Blargh))} 00:32, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Though since Salamence is Bohmander, it makes sense for it to keep the salamander reference...and Flygon's Frygon. TTEchidna 03:23, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Are you talking about the Japanese names? I concede your point. But tell me that it doesn't make more sense to have something named Shelgon evolve into something named Flygon instead of something named Salamence. --Martonimos_{((Argh|Blargh))} 03:36, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Decent point, that. I was wondering that myself.Kiryu 22:57, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

More Possible Trivia. . .

I thought it was pretty strange that Flygon is in the Bug Egg Group. I looked at the article about the Bug Egg Group, and noticed that Flygon and its Pre-evolved forms are the only Pokémon in the Bug Egg Group that aren't part Bug-type, except for Gligar and Gliscor. Is this worthy of the Trivia Section. (By the way, it is frustrating that it is part of the Bug Egg Group because I can't breed any Dragon-type moves into it, like Dragon Rush or Outrage.)
