Talk:Underchomp

the act of "playing" piccolo to put the underchamp to sleep might be a refrence to harry potter and the philophisers stone where music puts fluffy (another cerberus-like 3 headed dog) to sleep Dstroyer 666 08:15, 19 September 2007 (EDT)

That itself is based in Greek myth. Both stories are based on that myth. This has been reproduced many times throughout literature. -- Son of Suns

Mother/EARTHBOUND? your having a laugh! It's a... POKéMON REFERENCE! LucariosAura (used to be specialk) 11:21, 24 February 2010 (EST)

IMO, the battle doesn't look like a Pokémon battle at all; you can't see your character, there are no attack animations, etc. It's a lot more similar to Mother than Pokémon, though it seems more like a reference to classic RPG games in general (Mother is by far not the only game with battles like this; they don't look like this at all in Pokémon, however).--vellidragon 11:33, 24 February 2010 (EST)

It is pokémon. It said "Underchomp Attacked!" when you see it. (Pokémon Ranger) You see levels on it. (All Pokémon Games). You choose attacks clearly. The music (need i say?) is an 8 bit remix of Pokémon Battle/Mario Theme. Falling asleep (tune sounds like a move called Sing). "Special Moves" (Signiture moves).

Things like "[Monster] attacked!" messages, choosing attacks and special moves are commonly found in a lot of RPGs, many of which existed before Pokémon. They're not exclusive to the Pokémon games. I don't hear the alleged remix btw, maybe someone else does though.--vellidragon 13:30, 25 February 2010 (EST)
