Trivia[]
- Okidogi marks the second canine Pokémon to have a leash-like appendage, the first being Zygarde's 10% form.
- Okidogi and Mabosstiff are the only Pokémon to have the ability Guard Dog. Coincidentally, they are both 197 in their respective area's Pokédex (Mabosstiff for Paldea's dex and Okidogi for Kitakami's dex.)
- Okidogi has similar colors to Zarude, a mythical Pokémon from Generation 8.
- Before meeting Pecharunt, Okidogi used to be an unknown small and weak Pokémon, most likely based on some kind of dog.
Origin[]
Okidogi, along with Ogerpon, Munkidori, Fezandipiti, and Pecharunt, are based creatures of the Japanese folktale; Momotarō. Okidogi specifically represents the talking dog of the folktale. Okidogi also resembles the Akita Inu, a Japanese dog breed.
The similarity is further pronounced with its Shiny form and the association of the Land of Kitakami and the Tōhoku region (Northeast Japan) where Akita Prefecture is located. The chain on its neck resembles a dog leash or scarf.
Etymology[]
Okidogi is derived from "Okie-dokie" and "Dog", with the spelling altered to make it feel more Japanese-like.
In other languages[]
Īneinu can be a combination of the Japanese term for expressing approval (いいね, ii ne) and the Japanese word of dog (犬, inu).
