Trivia
- Salazzle is very similar to Vespiquen, as they evolve from female Pokémon only. The males of their pre-evolutions never evolve.
- Both of their pre-evolutions also have a gender ratio of seven males to one female.
- Salazzle and its pre-evolution, Salandit, are currently the only Poison/Fire-type Pokémon.
Origin
Salazzle may be based on a salamander, which is usually associated with fire in mythology. Its all-female nature may be inspired by the New Mexico Whiptail lizard. Its appearance and posture may also draw inspiration from Dromaeosaur dinosaurs such as the Velociraptor. It may also be inspired by the mo'o, a dragon-like creature in Hawaiian mythology (as Alola, the region Salazzle originates from, is based on Hawaii). Mo'o were stated to be large female lizards with dark scales and would appear when fire was near (referencing its Fire-type). They also had the ability to shapeshift into women in order to seduce and then consume men, possibly being the inspiration for its more feminine build and female-only evolution method.
Etymology
Salazzle comes from salamander and dazzle or sizzle.
Its Japanese name, Ennyūto, is a portmanteau of 炎 (en, flame) and newt, newts being amphibians related to salamanders.
