14 Pokémon Based On Bizarre Real Life Creatures

6. Luvdisc Is A Kissing Gourami

Luvdisc Kissing Gourami

What Is It?

The kissing gourami gets its name from the odd behaviour it exhibits wherein it appears to kiss other fish. In reality they're actually fighting with their mouths, which is generally your only option when you don't have hands or access to assault rifles.

Fun Fact:

It is said that finding a Luvdisc will bless a couple with eternal love, but its real life counterpart is slightly less lovey dovey. In fact, gourami often kill other fish by sucking the mucus off their bodies and eating it. That can often kill the romance.
