Things You Didn't Know About Pokemon!

Fact #152

The Pokemon Sableye is based off the Hopkinsville Goblin, an alleged alien sighting in the 60's in Hopkinsville Kentucky.

The report of the alien says: "roughly child sized, with huge heads and powerful clawed arms on relatively stunted bodies, fan-like ears and massive, brightly shining round eyes. Bullets fired at the creatures were said to bounce off their gleaming metallic skin, and their claws sliced easily through the home’s metal roofing. They held their arms up when they walked "as though wading through water," and constantly swayed their hips in a silent rhythm."

This description is similar to the design of Sableye.
