There's been a trend for Fire-type starters and their evolutionary lines to be based off of an animal in the Chinese Zodiac. Charizard is a '''dragon''', Cyndaquil is a '''rat''', Torchic & Combusken are '''roosters''', the Chimchar line consists of '''monkeys'', the Tepig line consists of '''pigs'', and the Fennekin line consists of foxes, a type of wild '''dog'''. Litten appears to be based off of a '''tiger''', furthering this trend; it would be a good idea to add this to the main article under "origin." | |||

Litten's Name Origin
I am sure it is based off of the words little, lit, and kitten, similar to Litleo. Chomper4 (talk) 12:59, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
- The name Litten may also be based on the Norwegian Liten meaning small. And I suspect that the Li part may be based on Liger (A hybrid cross between a lion and a tiger.) but we have to wait for the final evolution before we can confirm or de confirm that one. --Basinox (talk) 14:06, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

Chinese Zodiac
There's been a trend for Fire-type starters and their evolutionary lines to be based off of an animal in the Chinese Zodiac. Charizard is a dragon, Cyndaquil is a rat, Torchic & Combusken are roosters, the Chimchar line consists of monkeys, the Tepig line consists of pigs, and the Fennekin line consists of foxes, a type of wild dog. Litten appears to be based off of a tiger, furthering this trend; it would be a good idea to add this to the main article under "origin."
