* Alternatively, being red and blue schools of fish constantly quarreling opponents in a region based of the United States, it’s possible that they also loosely represent the democratic and republican parties, who are well-established to be in constant political arguments and struggles against each other. In rare cases where one can see red or blue Basculin peacefully integrated and mingling with their counterparts school, then it seems that one side managed to somehow convince and sway the other into joining their school.

* Sandile and its evolutions are gavials, which mostly eat insects. But since they're Dark-typed, they're weak to Bug-type moves...
** Um, Sandile/Krokorok/Krookodile are actually based off of crocodiles in general (in particular, the Spectacled Caiman). They feed on far more than just insects. Plus, eating a Bug-Type Pokémon as food and battling it in a trainer-based battle are two completely different things.
** The Japanese name of Sandile refers to crocodile, but the two evolutions refer to gavials, as do their head shapes. Being weak to bug moves does not matter much, though. They are ambush predators.

* There's a fangame titled ''Pokémon Soulstones'' in which there are Normal-type variants of Cubchoo and Beartic based on brown bears that have the Thick Fat ability. One might question why regular Cubchoo and Beartic don't have this ability. After all, wouldn't a warm, buoyant, nourishment-storing fatty body be a good thing for polar Pokémon to have, and wouldn't they be plumper than their more temperate relatives? Then one realizes that they probably already DO have enough blubber to survive the cold, but A. their fat is more evenly distributed throughout their bodies and/or B. this fat can protect them from cold, but not heat, so it doesn't qualify as the Thick Fat ability, which protects from both Ice AND Fire moves.
