    Trivia[]

    • Garganacl is similar to Golem and Gigalith. They are Rock Types made of geo material.

    Origin[]

    Garganacl is based on rock salt and sedimentary bedrock, as evidenced by its layered design. Its shoulders resembles a ziggurat (though salt can form pyramid like structures), while its gentle nature and Rock-type implies its also a Hebrew Golem, much like Golurk.

    Etymology[]

    Garganacl is a combination of "gargantuan" and NaCl (the chemical formula for table salt; sodium chloride).

    Kyojiōn comes from 巨人 (kyojin, "giant"), 塩 (shio, "salt") and "geo-", a prefix meaning "earth".
