Trivia[]

  • In Super Smash Bros., Gulpin is one of the Pokémon that can be freed from Pokéballs. During this time, it uses the move Swallow.

Origin[]

Gulpin appears to be based on a stomach or possibly a gallbladder (a green organ that contains digestive acids). It also resembles a slug and/or a blobfish to some degree.

Etymology[]

Gulpin likely comes from "gulping," "intake," "pin" (referring to the feather on its head), and possibly "sculpin" (a superfamily of fish that blobfish, which Gulpin may be based on, are in).

Gokurin comes from ゴクリ (gokuri, the sound of gulping), and "toxin."
