Pokemon Name Origins - Psychospacecow - 12-19-2013

I drew the connection for Kabuto's name while typing up something on http://www.vgfacts.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=1230&pid=29498#pid29498.

Kind of Slowpokish of me but

For those who aren't familiar with that helmet up top, that is a Kabuto, a Japanese samurai's helmet.


So, yeah. If you realize or know what a Pokemon is named after, go on right ahead and put it here.

Sound good to you guys?
