Trivia

Grubbin and Blipbug share the same species category. Both of them are known as the Larva Pokémon.

Origin

Grubbin is based on beetle larva, as they usually have an orange head and a white body before they gain a shell. Its white coloration and jaw also make it resemble a two pronged electrical plug, foreshadowing its evolution into a part Electric-type Pokémon.

Etymology

Grubbin comes from grub and grubbing (to dig through hard dirt).

Its Japanese name, Agojimushi, comes from ago (jaw), mushi (bug) and jimushi (grub).

Names in other languages

French: Larvibule (mix of larve (larva) and mandibule (mandible))
German: Mabula (mix of made (maggot) and mandibula (mandible))
Spanish: Grubbin
