Uhh, not exactly
"Arceus's name may come from the words arch (highest) and deus, which is Latin for god. It may also have a root in the Latin word arcanus, which means secret; sacred mystery. Arceus's name may also come from the word archaic (ancient), which comes from the Greek arkhaios, and is derived from the ancient Greek word for "beginning", arkhē. It could have also come from the Latin word archetypus (original). Alternatively, Arceus's name can be seen as a portmanteau of Zeus, the most powerful of Greek gods and arch (highest). Another theory may be the combination of Zeus and Ra spelled backwards (Zeus being the king of gods and Ra being the solar god and creator, albeit in different pantheons). Those two qualities are shared by the Pokémon. Also, Arceus can also be derived from aureus (golden), possibly referring to its hooves and wheel. Nevertheless, Arceus's name origin and possible theories have led fans to believe that Arceus may be in fact a creator deity in Pokémon form. Arceus's name is pronounced with a soft "c" (or "s" sound) by the announcer in Pokémon Battle Revolution; in keeping with its probable name origin, it is pronounced with a hard "c" (or "k" sound) in television commercials and in Arceus and the Jewel of Life. Its name could also come from arc, as in round/ring, since it's surrounded by one."

You guys keep forgetting this game is Japanese and therefor more likely to borrow from Eastern legends and religion than ours.
Either way I'm working on some more sketches for our legendaries so hang tight.
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Pengoony - 05-29-2011
Here's an Idea. A juice Pouch pokemon!
I'll make A sketch later to show you what I think it should look like.
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Koopaul - 05-30-2011
Had a dream last night. Remember that pumpkin Pokemon? Well I saw it's first form in my dream, it looked like this.
![[Image: seed001.jpg]](/image.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv15%2Fkoopaul%2FArt%2520Work%2Fseed001.jpg&hash=a228449928298a0c5ca919e3e63f621c)
As you can see it starts out as a seed, then evolves into a pumpkin, then finally a Jack-O-Lantern.
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Chaoxys - 05-30-2011
I like it, although I'd kinda like to see something in it's design related to the crap you have to scoop out of a pumpkin before you have to carve it since the seeds and that stuff usually go hand in hand.

Actually, that one's more of an electric oni, with a few tigerlike features.
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Koopaul - 05-30-2011
There's already an electric cat in the series anyway. Shinx if you're wondering. I do remember a while back someone mentioned a Sabertooth Pokemon. I think we should decide at some point what our cat Pokemon will be.
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Garamonde - 05-30-2011
What about a leopard or a Siamese cat?
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Perseus - 05-30-2011
Leopard was used in Gen 5
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Garamonde - 05-30-2011
Oh. I need to learn about the 5th Gen. sometime...
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Koopaul - 05-30-2011
You should its one of the best Gens there is.
RE: TSR PokeDex Project - Garamonde - 05-30-2011
I was going to learn about it when I got White, maybe for my birthday.
