==Origins==
 
Poliwrath appears to be based off a ''[[:wikipedia:tadpole|tadpole]]'' whilst its name comes from ''poliwog'' and ''wrath''.
 
 
==Trivia==
 
*Poliwrath, along with Lucario are the only non-dual typed {{Type|Fighting}}/{{Type|Psychic}} and still have Fighting as a type to learn [[Psychic]].
 
*Poliwrath is the first Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] to evolve from a [[Water Stone]].
 
*Poliwrath's Pokédex entries state the Pacific Ocean which means that the Pokémon Universe and the real world are some how connected.
 
**This is supported by the fact that in the Mystery Dungeon series that the hero was, on both occasions, a human, and not a Pokémon from the beginning.
