===Form data===
Tatsugiri has three different non-interchangeable forms: Curly Form (which is orange), Droopy Form (which is magenta), and Stretchy Form (which is yellow), each with different colors, fin shapes, and patterns on their bodies. When {{p|Dondozo}} uses the move {{m|Order Up}} after Tatsugiri has entered its mouth using its [[Ability]] {{a|Commander}}, the [[stat]] boost that Dondozo gains is based on the Tatsugiri form in its mouth, with Curly Form increasing {{stat|Attack}}, Droopy Form increasing {{stat|Defense}}, and Stretchy Form increasing {{stat|Speed}}.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Tatsugiri seems to be based on {{wp|sushi}}, specifically the ''nigirizushi'' (a type of sushi shaped by hands, instead of rolled): Curly Form resembles a shrimp nigiri, Droopy Form resembles a tuna nigiri, and Stretchy Form resembles an egg or urchin nigiri. Likewise, {{Shiny}} Curly Form resembles an eel nigiri, Shiny Droopy Form resembles a halibut or squid nigiri, and Shiny Stretchy Form resembles a salmon nigiri. Tatsugiri also somewhat resembles the {{wp|koi}} fish, which like Tatsugiri has many colored varieties.

Tatsugiri also somewhat resembles the {{wp|koi}} fish, which, like Tatsugiri, has many colored varieties.  


Tatsugiri's habit of entering the mouth of a Dondozo is a possible reference to {{wp|Mouthbrooder|mouth-brooding}}, a parenting style performed by some species of catfish where the parent fish will keep their offspring safe by holding them inside their mouth. Tatsugiri's Dragon type and curved posture may be a reference to {{wp|Shachihoko}}, or the East Asian cultural association of koi (and carp in general) with dragons.
Tatsugiri's Dragon type may be a reference to the East Asian cultural association of koi (and carp in general) with dragons. Curly Form's curved posture may also be a reference to {{wp|Shachihoko}}. Tatsugiri's {{wp|Sarcopterygii|lobed fins}} and its ability to walk on land may be inspired by {{wp|lungfish}}es and lungfish-like species like ''{{wp|Polypterus senegalus}}'', sometimes known as "dragonfish".


Tatsugiri and Dondozo's synergy together seem to reference the common [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrainsAndBrawn "Brains and Brawn" team-up] trope in media, as Tatsugiri is physically weak but really intelligent, and acts as the boss for the more powerful Dondozo.
