Trivia
- Chien-Pao has the highest base Speed stat of all Dark-type Pokémon.
- Chien-Pao and the other treasures of ruin are the first Pokémon whose base stats were adjusted via a patch to the game.
- Chien-Pao is one of the only Ice-type Pokémon, the other ones being Snom and Frost Rotom, to not be able to learn Ice Beam.
Origin
Chien-Pao may be based on nimravids such as Dinictis and Hoplophoneus, saber-toothed predators with elongated bodies closely related to felids. It also may be inspired by snow leopards and the prehistoric Smilodon, one of the most well-known true saber-toothed cats. The pieces of a sword that it uses as fangs may have been inspired by bronze swords, particularly the jian (double-edged straight sword); and they may make Chien-Pao a literal interpretation of a "saber-toothed cat".
The weasel- or linsang-like shape of its form likely alludes to the tiger tally (虎符 hǔfú), the proof of imperial authorization in ancient China for implementation of troop orders. Most examples of the tiger tally depict a stylized tiger long and crouching.
Chien-Pao and the other treasures of ruin may be based on the Four Perils of Chinese mythology. Specifically, Chien-Pao may be based on 窮奇 / 穷奇 Qióngqí, a vicious tiger-like creature that was later identified as the prototype of kamaitachi in Japanese folklore, hence Chien-Pao's similar stats and typing to Weavile. It may also be partly inspired by the 檮杌 / 梼杌 Táowù, another of the Four Perils known for its large tusks as well as having a genus of saber-toothed cats named after it.
Name origin
Chien-Pao and Paojian may be a combination of 劍 / 剑 jiàn (Chinese for sword) or 寶劍 / 宝剑 bǎojiàn (Chinese for treasure sword) and 豹 bào (Chinese for leopard). The English name is formatted in Wade–Giles, a romanization system used in the Anglosphere for most of the 20th century.
