hmmm. is it Ok if I get a better picture because you can't really see Denchura in the current one because of the ingame text. From my view it looks like a blue spider with yellow legs and a white star like shape on it's bottom according to other pics.--[[User:XD00153 | ==Image== | ||

It was recently realized that Denchura backwards, aruhcned, is pronounced pretty much identical to "Arachnid", which is what Denchura is: A spider. I was wondering if this should be mentioned in trivia or even name origin?

:Probably not. There's quite a few noticeable differences in spelling, and besides, since we're working with the Japanese name, it would be something like "rayuchinde" backwards, which doesn't make sense at all. --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] 11:18, 1 October 2010 (UTC) | :Probably not.

I'm pretty sure Galvantula came from galvanism which involves electrical currents rather than galvanization which is applying a coating of metal for something not to rust. I should know, my last name's Galvani.

Name
It was recently realized that Denchura backwards, aruhcned, is pronounced pretty much identical to "Arachnid", which is what Denchura is: A spider. I was wondering if this should be mentioned in trivia or even name origin? Myzou 11:03, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- Probably not. There's quite a few noticeable differences in spelling, and besides, since we're working with the Japanese name, it would be something like "rayuchinde" backwards, which doesn't make sense at all. --AndyPKMN 11:18, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- Actually, that's pretty interesting. I think it should go in the trivia.--Pokélova! 17:52, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- Well, it could be mentioned something like "If read in English, etc." Or something similar. It wouldn't have to be a general comment. Myzou 00:54, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
