* The wooper trooper, along with the rest of its variants, are based on the [[Wikipedia:axolotl|axolotl]], an endangered species of salamander from Mexico. The name wooper itself references the term "[[Wiktionary:ウーパールーパー|wooper looper]]" (ウーパールーパー, ''Ūpārūpā''), a term introduced by the [[Wikipedia:Nissin Foods|Nissin Foods]] company to refer to their axolotl mascot, which first appeared in a 1985 commercial ~~and also serves as the same basis for the popular generation 2 ''[[Pokémon]]'' Wooper~~.

* Additionally, the adding of "trooper" to the end draws a parallel to the turtle character from ''[[Super Mario]]'', the Koopa Troopa - which in itself was likely a nod to the [[wikipedia:Abba|Abba]] song "Super Trouper", as well as being a generally obvious rhyme to use.
