Huh, why isn't it listed that the pal may come from pail as in pail and shovel, two important tools needed in sand play.

== Name Origin == | |||
I think that the Japanese name origin is incorrect, and the name can be translated into; castle at sand. Also, the name shirodesuna can be literally translated to "It is a castle". If you take the word Shiro as in white, it could also mean "white as sand". This is japan, so they wouldn't use the word "Death".

:You can't really get "white as sand" if you interpret 'shiro' as white, that's just forcing an interpretation. Translating 'de' as "at" is also just awkward at best. Japanese players also comment on the "death" for 'desu' part, so you can't say it's incredibly far-fetched.

:What? That's not true. Water Compaction only raises its Defense from Water-type attacks, not prevents damage from them altogether. And please sign your comments with four tildes, please. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 01:39, 26 February 2017 (UTC) | |||
