Such traditional dancers seems to be very strongly echoed in Meinshao. Being something of a Pokemon fan, this notion stuck in my mind while studying the exhibits.  What do you think, and should it be included in Trivia?  19.35 28 Sept 2013 [[User:Jaylaw|Jaylaw]] ([[User talk:Jaylaw|talk]]) 18:52, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

There is an element of the kung fu in Mienfoo and Mienshao.

It was added because there was no Pokemon that did the kung fu up to now. The source is Nintendo Dream vol.205.

My English is unskilled. Please add the fact to the origin. Sawamular101 02:17, 12 April 2011 (UTC)


Possible Han Dynasty connection?

Recently visited an exhibition in Cambridge UK about tombs of Han Dynasty China, 2nd century BC. Among the exhibits were earthenware figurines, wearing costumes with extremely long sleeves, representing court dancers of the period. Such dance and dancers are occasionally seen in Beijing today.

Such traditional dancers seems to be very strongly echoed in Meinshao's overall appearance. Being something of a Pokemon fan, this notion stuck in my mind while studying the exhibits. What do you think, and should it be included in Trivia? 19.35 28 Sept 2013 Jaylaw (talk) 18:52, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
