- Pokémon Name: Herbortemis
-> I put a lot of effort, research, and decision into the name, and wanted to make sure it had meaning and rolled off the tongue. The name 'Herbortemis' comes from 'herbeux' [the French word for 'grassy'], 'mortem' [the Latin word for 'death'], and 'resistis' [the Latin word for 'bringer']. I learnt that 'bringer of death' in Latin can also be said as: 'apportens mortis', but I decided to cut it into seperate words.
- Pokémon Typing: Grass/Dark
- Pokémon Description:
-> I wanted to base my Pokémon off a Celtic mythological creature or beast [as, to my belief, there aren't any, and a lot of family on my mother's side originates from Ireland], and after quite a bit of researching and comparing, I finally settled on the Cù-sìth. The Cù-sìth is a mythological hound found in the folklore of Scotland, and is said to be the size of a bull with the appearance of a dog with green and grassy fur. The beast lives in fairly mountainous terrain, away from humans. The Cù-sìth is feared as the harbinger of death, and this contributes to my choices on name, typing, stats, moves, and appearance.
