Trivia

Origin

Quaquaval may be based on a crested duck and a peacock. It may also be based on carnivals such as the Rio Carnival or the Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife in the Canary Islands, with its movement and tail feathers resembling typical performers. Its Fighting typing and movements may also be based on Capoeira, a fighting style that originated in Brazil.

Name origin

Quaquaval may be a combination of quá-quá (Portuguese onomatopoeia for duck sounds), aqua, and carnival.

Wanival may be a combination of wave and carnival.
