Trivia

• Throh and Sawk draw parallels to the Generation I Pokémon Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, in that they are Fighting-type Pokémon that appear to be related to each other.
• In both the anime and PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond, Throh is slightly taller than Sawk despite being five inches shorter than him according to the Pokédex.

Origin

Throh is based upon a Judo expert and an Oni.

According to interviews with Ken Sugimori in Nintendo Dream, in development, Sawk and Throh both had horns, making them look more like Oni. However, they were replaced with eyebrows so as not to clash with Tornadus and Thundurus, who both were originally designed to be red and blue, like Throh and Sawk.

Name origin

Throh is a corruption of throw.

Nageki is a combination of 投げる nageru (to throw) and 撃 geki (strike). It may also involve 鬼 ki (demon).
