makes what I believe is a fairly good case--based on the design of Shuckle's beta Gen II design-- that it was based, not on a scale insect or a slime mold, as is commonly believed, but on Okinawan snake wine. This would explain its snake-like head, its ability to ferment things in its flask-like shell, and its lack of a Bug-type in the beta game. Should we edit the article to reflect what may have been Shuckle's ultimate inspiration?
