Fireflinger is a simple reference to what it does: flinging fireballs. The term ''Groink'' seems entirely made up; it is possible to extract the onomatopoeia for pig grunts, "oink", thus contracting "grunt" and "oink" to "Groink". | |||
Its scientific name, ''Magmaceps infernalis'', references both "magma" and "infernal". These words are both often associated with fire. | |||

== Trivia == | |||
*The Fireflinger Groink shares many similarities to the [[Gattling Groink]], which is interesting since both creatures do not belong to any known family. | |||
*In the ''Hey! Pikmin'' logs screen, the size reference is incorrect. The creature is shown to be the size that it is drawn on-screen in-game, but because in-game it is far away, its real size should be much larger. | |||
