===Origin===
Throh is based on a judoka (an expert in judo) and sumo wrestler.
It may also be based on red oni from Japanese mythology, as an interview stated that Throh and Sawk originally had horns, but they were changed into eyebrows to avoid a mix up with the Forces of Nature trio's Thunderus and Tornadus, who also had this origin.
Sawk along with Throh may also be based on the Ashinaga-tenaga, a pair of yokai one of which has long arms and the other has long legs with Throh representing the longed armed of the pair.
===Etymology===
Throh comes from throw. Its name backwards also spells horht (Sanskrit for "combat").
