Trivia
- Swellow and Noctowl are the only regional bird Pokémon caught by Ash that have a two-stage evolution. Coincidentally, both of them had their shiny forms appeared in the anime.
Origin
Swellow is based on a barn swallow with elements of robins and hawks.
Etymology
Swallow comes from "swell" (to increase in size, either referring to its increase in size from Taillow or its somewhat pudgy belly; it's also somewhat archaic slang for "good") and "swallow" (the bird it's based on).
Ōsubame likely comes from 大 (ō, big), 王 (ō, king), "awesome," and 燕 (tsubame, swallow).
