===Origin===
Lombre's appearance is similar to the Japanese mythological creature known as the {{wp|Kappa (mythical creature)|Kappa}}. Unlike {{p|Golduck}}, this [[Pokémon]] is more like the kappa as it has the same dish on its head filled with water that is the source of its power, just as this Pokémon uses {{a|Rain Dish}} to replenish itself. It also has facial features similar to the kappa, such as a {{wp|turtle}}-like beak.
