Are Primeape's movements modeled after Sugar Ray Leonard?

When Primeape uses Earthquake (and some other moves), it winds up one of its arms and does an uppercut, like what Sugar Ray did in his fight with Roberto Duran. Is this a reference? BNKTalk 01:42, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Regardless of whether it is or not, we typically try to avoid drawing parallels to real-world people or copyrighted works unless the parallel is explicit, like Tyranitar's Japanese name being a Godzilla reference or the Uri Geller controversy. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 04:47, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
