There's an alloy in SSBB that looks very similar to this. Should that be noted? Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 14:07, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- I barely see the resemblance.. Ataro 14:09, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
Evolution
- I know this is pure speculation and shouldn't go in the article, but it greatly resembles the eye of Gigaisu with rock chips around it, as well as being a pure rock type with the ability Sturdy. Pokébeach also have a Isshu Pokedex listing which shows that Gigaisu has two prevolutions, so it's next to confirmed that this Pokémon is related. MAMOSWINEPwnz!

- next to confirmed =/= confirmed Ataro 19:26, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- It's definitely related, they're both Rock types and even have the same pattern around their eyes. But I suppose it can't really be added to the article until we know which stage Dangoro is in the evolution chain (though my guess is that it's the basic stage, with a currently unknown Pokemon in between it and Gigaisu).

- heres how it works...if it's not confirmed it will not be added...even if its obvious and it turns out to be true then it will be added..Ataro 16:59, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
- Serebii's calling it confirmed. Dangoro to Gantoru. Almost certainly Gantoru to Gigaiasu.

Name origin
I'm unsure of the 'Dan' part, but I do know that 'goro' could be derived from 'goron goron', Japanese onomatopoeia for the sound of a boulder or a rock rolling down. ...And that's really all I can offer. Rai Marshall 21:49, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- Isn't that just Goro? because Goron reminds me of something else...Ataro 21:51, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- I know, I know, Gorons from Zelda. But I'm pretty sure it's 'goron'. Rai Marshall 21:52, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- Goron goron is not in the dictionary, but goro goro is.
- As for the dan part, my best guess is 弾圧 dan'atsu, pressure, as its presumed final evolution is the High Pressure Pokémon. But I believe dan'atsu is the "oppression", "suppression" kind of pressure, not the one in physics etc, so I'm in the dark too... ㊰ブラッキーシュリー 01:23, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
- What about dango, as in the round Japanese snack? That was what I thought of when I first saw this Pokémon. Phantom♫Junkie 02:19, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
- Okay I was wrong, it's 'goro goro' then. Can it still be added in? Rai Marshall 06:00, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Trivia
Gorons from Zelda universe were already mentioned before, but take a look on Dangoro, giant Goron from Twilight Princess. I think the fact that they share one name should be mentioned.--ЫъГЬ 13:01, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
