A bit of trivia to be added...
I've read the Poison article, and it lists Salandit as the only primary Poison-type Pokémon that is also a Fire-type. No other Pokémon shares its type combination. LDEJRuff (talk) 15:11, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
- We can't be sure that no other Pokémon will share this typing with it, I suppose it is better to wait until types of all Alola Pokémon are known. Kikugi (talk) 15:22, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Something for the name origin section
"Salandit" is a combination of "salamander" and "bandit", due to looking as if it's wearing a mask.Pokencyclopedia (talk) 17:26, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Mythological Salamander
Salamanders in mythology tend to be associated with fire and/or volcanoes. The Talmud says that the salamander is a product of fire. Pliny the Elder of Rome also attributed salamanders with poisonous properties.
As a side note, as a part of my research, I found that Muhammad said that salamanders are "mischief-doers" (direct quote from wikipedia).
I am not going to post all of the information here, but people should look up Salamanders in folklore and legend on Wikipedia. Srushj11 (talk) 17:56, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
