A bit of trivia to be added...

I've read the Poison article, and it lists Salandit as the only primary Poison-type Pokémon that is also a Fire-type. No other Pokémon shares its type combination. LDEJRuff (talk) 15:11, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

We can't be sure that no other Pokémon will share this typing with it, I suppose it is better to wait until types of all Alola Pokémon are known. Kikugi (talk) 15:22, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Something for the name origin section

"Salandit" is a combination of "salamander" and "bandit", due to looking as if it's wearing a mask.Pokencyclopedia (talk) 17:26, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

... It's... it's already in the name origin...--ForceFire 17:38, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Sorry, I must've missed that. ^^'--Pokencyclopedia (talk) 21:45, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Mythological Salamander

Salamanders in mythology tend to be associated with fire and/or volcanoes. The Talmud says that the salamander is a product of fire. Pliny the Elder of Rome also attributed salamanders with poisonous properties.

As a side note, as a part of my research, I found that Muhammad said that salamanders are "mischief-doers" (direct quote from wikipedia).

I am not going to post all of the information here, but people should look up Salamanders in folklore and legend on Wikipedia. Srushj11 (talk) 17:56, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

The only Pokemon with three 1/4 resistances?

Is Salandit the only Pokemon with three 1/4x resistances? Those are to Fairy, Grass, and Bug. BNKTalk 19:15, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

Heatran has two more. glikglak 21:12, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
He didn't ask if Salandit has the most 1/4 resistances, only if Salandit is the only Pokémon with three, so Heatran having five has nothing to do with it. However: 1. we don't know Generation VII type chart 2. we don't know if there are other Generation VII Pokémon with three 1/4 resistances 3. even if it turned out to be the only one, I don't think it would be notable.--Den Zen 21:42, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
