I was curious what Snorlax's name was in other languages. Here's what I found! (from Bulbapedia)
Japanese: カビゴン Kabigon
French: Ronflex
German: Relaxo
"Snorlax is a combination of snore and lax or lackadaisical. ... Snorlax may also involve relax.
Kabigon is derived from Kirby (Japanese: カービィ Kābī), the eponymous main character of Nintendo's Kirby video game series. In an interview with Game Informer, Junichi Masuda stated that Kōji Nishino, the main inspiration for Snorlax, used to be called "Kirby" by Game Freak staff as a nod to his large appetite."
Process and tools: Sketched traditionally, and then colored on the iPad Pro with Apple Pencil using the Procreate app. Total time about 6 hours.
