Trivia
Origin
Sizzlipede is likely based on a centipede or radiators. It may specifically be based on the Fire Centipede who glows like fire thanks to its bioluminescence. Its PokéDex entries also state it may be based on a gas stove, as it stores heat through gas and cooks its foes. It may also be based on the the oomukade, a youkai based on a red-headed centipede who is weak to human saliva, referencing the fire-types weakness to the Water-type.
Etymology
Sizzlipede is a combination of sizzle and millipede. It may also come from lip, as the fire it sports on its face resembles a mustache, which is often referred to as a lip-brow.
Yakude comes from 焼く (yaku, to grill or bake) and 蜈蚣 (mukade, centipede).
