Trivia

• Heatmor and Durant appear to be rivals.
  • Unlike most Pokémon rivalries, Durant is at a severe disadvantage against Heatmor since it has a 4× weakness to Heatmor's type. However, this was probably done to reflect that anteaters eat ants.
• Heatmor, along with Torkoal, are the only non-legendary Template:Type2 that have no evolutionary relatives.
  • Coincidentally, both of them are the only Pokémon to have White Smoke as one of their abilities.

Origin

Heatmor seems to be based on an anteater, featuring flamethrower and an ironworks into its design. components. Its wrists resemble gun barrels and its tail is similar to a car's muffler.

Name origin

Heatmor is likely a pun on heat and "eat more," as in "eat more ants" or heat and armor. Its name may also be derived from mortar, in reference to its typing and barrel-like arms.

Kuitaran seems to be a combination of the クイ kui "eater" of アリクイ arikui "anteater" and the word "anteater" with the elements reversed. It could also be a combination and reverse of nār, meaning fire in arabic.
