Origins[]

Etymology[]

Marowak's name was probably based off "Marrow" (Which is the inside of a bone) and "Wack" (The action of smacking something into something else; his/her bone).

Trivia[]

  • Marowak and its pre-Evolution Cubone for three generations were two of the only Pokémon to have three signature attacks. The attacks were Bone Club, Bonemerang, and Bone Rush.
  • Marowak's name comes from The word combo of "marrow", a substance in bones, and "Whack". Thus, it's name translates into "Bone Whack."
  • Three bones appear in the Nacrene City museum. A plate on the base of the display says the bones used to be wielded by a Pokèmon, refering to Marowak, or Cubone.
  • The ghost Marowak in Lavender Town is the only wild Pokémon that can not be caught by normal gameplay and no cheating.
  • Even though Marowak is not a Ghost type, it shares the trait of a ghost type in generation 1 and 3.
  • Marowak was originally suposed to evolve into Kangaskhan, but this was changed right before Pokémon Red and Blue were released.
