Trivia

Design Origin

Harptera is based on a dragonfly.

Name Origin

Harptera's name may be derived from Neuraeschna harpya, a rainforest-dwelling species of dragonfly, and Anisoptera, the suborder dragonflies are classified under. It might also come from harpy, winged monsters from Greek mythology. Or from the word "harpoon", since the Pokédex entry says that "They use their harpoon-shaped tails to skewer prey".
