You know, there have always been a few Pokemon names that I've never quite understood what they're a pun on. Such as "Growlithe." What on earth is that a pun of?
 
Not all Pokemon names are a pun. Many of them just come from two or more different words. For Growlithe, it obviously comes from "Growl" and, according to Bulbapedia, "Lithe" which can mean limber or flexible.
