因为写论文的关系，所以找了一些神奇宝贝的资料， 其中包括田尻智接受TIMEasia的访谈， （神奇宝贝的创始者，动画中的小智便是以他为原型）， （另外在动画中，作为小智亦师亦友的劲敌大木茂， 也就是大木博士的孙子小茂，其原型则是马力欧的创始者宫本茂） 在访谈中提到喵喵跟皮卡丘的姓名意含，然後我就想到很久以前， 黄小四似乎遭遇有小孩子吵着说皮卡丘不是老鼠的事情... TIME: Do the names mean anything or are they just gibberish? Tajiri（田尻）: They all have meaning. Like Nyarth（喵喵）. It's from a Japanese proverb about a cat with money on his head that doesn't know it's there. It's about understanding the value of money. （也就是说『给猫小判』？） I don't think they have that concept in the U.S., so the name is different. And Pikachu. 'Pika' is the sound Japanese say an electric spark makes. And 'chu' is the sound a mouse makes. So Pikachu is like an electric mouse. （通电的老鼠，所以是跟滑鼠类似的东西？） --
