The hydroe family's name is a play on the {{w|Hydra}} | The hydroe family's name is a play on the word "hydra", which may refer to both {{w|Hydra (genus)|a real world genus}} and a {{w|Lernaean Hydra|a mythical dragon with usually three heads}}. This is likely because its only known member physically resembles a real world hydra, and controls the [[Berserk Leech Hydroe]], a monster with three heads that even grows wings in the third phase of its battle, making it very dragon-like. The name may also be a play on the prefix "hydro-", referring to the creature's watery appearance. | ||
