Trivia

Tails from Sonic the Hedgehog.

Buizel in Mounting a Coordinator Assault.

• Buizel was one of three Pokémon revealed in March 2006 in promotions for Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, the other two being Mantyke and Chatot.
• Buizel's English name was revealed by Serebii.net on January 27, 2007.

Origin

Buizel seems to be based on an otter. The fact that Buizel spins its forked-tail like a propeller is not unlike that of Tails of the Sonic the Hedgehog series, and this was, in fact, highlighted in Mounting a Coordinator Assault.

Name origin

Buizel is a corruption of its Japanese name, Buoysel, which is believed to be a combination of buoy and weasel.

In other languages
