Talk:Bewear (Pokémon)

Origin

I've seen a lot of people comparing it to a red panda rather than a bear. This explains the tail's length, and the color scheme. The more bear-like attributes may be a reference to the panda bear, which shares its name with red panda but they are otherwise unrelated, though often mistaken for each other (or relatives).

It's the literal embodiment of a "Bear Hug". The tail is a coincidence. --BlisseyandtheAquaJets (talk) 16:50, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

I think we should also add Mascot to the mix. Random Chaos (talk) 14:08, 19 July 2016 (UTC)

It may be based off a onikuma, a bear yokai known to stand on two feet.Yamitora1 (talk) 16:04, 19 July 2016 (UTC)

Name Origin

Vinx on the forum said it could come "kitten" (red pandas are sometimes called cat-bears and it looks like a bear dressing as a cat with the ears headband), "kigurumi" (animal onesie/costume, it does look like it's based on a mascot or something similar) and kuma (bear) which you already have.Zeb (talk) 10:37, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
