Talk:Thundurus (Pokémon)

Oh snap

Do all the Pokémon in the No Eggs group need the little breeding template to tell that they have no egg moves? If so, I just screwed up royally. --Andy^P_K^M_N 11:45, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

I don't think so. --SnorlaxMonster 15:44, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Thank goodness! I had been removing the breeding section from Pokémon in the "No Eggs" group, and then saw that... I thought I had made seven or so counterproductive edits! What a relief! --Andy^P_K^M_N 17:19, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Romanized name

This dudes romanized name is 'Boltroth'

Or Voltroth, Boltoros, Boltlos, Voltloth or Voltlus, as Dogasu says or many other names.--でんのう ☢ Zえんし 16:47, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Not Tornelos cry

In the trivia part, it says that its Tornelos cry that is heard on route 7. I've just been at that part, but it was Voltolos cry I heard, not Tornelos. So that should be removed. --Mattii 16:31, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

You have a point. Someone must have just mixed up their (admittedly similar) cries. I just removed it. --RiverAura 17:15, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Official source. Thundurus is based on a Raijin.

The source is Nintendo Dream vol.205. Sawamular101 02:25, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

This may be a name source for Thundurus...

I think Thundurus' name also comes from the cloud name "cirrus".

Every one of the Kami Trio's names end in -us, and the beginning of Thundurus's name very clearly comes from Thunder. Alt + F4 13:39, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

I doubt it. The -us is most likely from Aeolus. ----神智の超龍「對話」 14:46, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

I doubt it. The kami trio is a collective term to refer to the all-male trio of Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus. They are based on kami in Japanese myth - Fūjin, the kami of wind, Raijin, the kami of thunder, and Inari, the kami of fertility, respectively

While a good guess, we (supposedly?) know what each is based on, so I don't see where Aeolus comes in. Alt + F4 15:57, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

There is a possible relationship, as Aeolus is the ruler of wind in Greek mythology. Aeolus is written as アイオロス, and the kami trio's Japanese names all end with -ロス. And it really wasn't a guess, I just got the idea from Dogasu. ----神智の超龍「對話」 16:11, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
