Trivia

• Nupin and Gellin were designed by Involuntary Twitch. They are some of Twitch's oldest fakemon designs.
• In earlier versions, Nupin was a slug-like Pokémon with no eyes.
• Before version 1.2, Nupin used Phione's cry.

Design origin

Nupin is based off of a single-celled organism, possibly an amoeba or a bacteria. It may also derive from phytoplankton, considering its Grass typing and photosynthetic abilities.

Name Origin

Nupin may be a combination of Nuppi (Finnish for button), Nupa (Javanese for mushroom) and pin.
