I'll bite.

It's squirt + turtle you autist.

How do you miss the point of the thread this hard?

>>26982470
Char + wizard = Charizard
Smegma + Cargo = Magcargo

Meowstic=meow+autistic

It's both squirt and squirrel. Obviously little kids in the 90s wouldn't know the deal with Squirtle's tail, so the localization plays on what most little American kids would see.

>>26982489
>turtles have tails

They do

But not squirrel style like Squirtle

>>26982522

>>26982682
I disagreed with that.
Neither the name nor the tail has anything to do with squirrels.
It's squirt turtle.

Rotom = Motor backwards

>>26982725
Again, tell that to the mass majority of children who did interpret it as "Squirrel Turtle". It's pretty obvious that the localization is a pun on both, since they knew a lot of kids would assume "curly tail = squirrel".
