Shaymin (Land Forme)
Gratitude Pokemon
Gen IV
TYPE: Grass
Its name is possibly a combination of the Chinese xiè (thanks/gratitude) or jeido (jade), which is one of Shaymin's most dominant colors, and harinezumi (hedgehog). Also, the word "shaman" can be pronounced like Shaymin, so it may be like a mythical shaman. In addition, the name Shaymin may be a corruption of the Hebrew word Shamayim, which means "sky" and is the name of the first heaven in Jewish mysticism. This correlates directly with Shaymin's Sky Forme. The name also may have derived from it's gratefulness, signifying it keeps it's "Shame," "In." It may also be derived from the word stamen, a plant part.
