(Other "Strongly suggested relatives" (e.g.Ragumo & Tōsenbo) are listed as relatives in their infoboxes, so matching that. Also, it makes a lot more sense that this is referring to the original Ponkey, as Land was never released after World, so Volcano Lotus can just be related by extension via Lava Lotus. And not every "Flower" enemy has to be related to Piranha Plant (e.g.Eggo-Dil & Dizzy Dandy).)
