Now we already have a name for a creature that we believe is a [[Mawpaw]], but this one actually seems to make more sense. Its mouth is a hand. Its maw is a paw. My question is, where did we get the name "Paluchard" from (I assume it's French) and which creature does it apply to? --[[User:Iheckler9|iHeckler9]][[File:Life.gif|link=User:Iheckler9]] 18:47, 24 March 2015 (CET) | According to [http://40.media.tumblr.com/a4158aea29e9afc179548326a53ff8dd/tumblr_mxt39eb9tU1t5cqdwo10_1280.jpg this guide] (which has been wrong before, saying the Zombie Chickens live in the Land of the Livid Dead), these creatures are called Mawpaws.

:The French names of R3 creatures were first quoted in an old press pack: http://www.raymanpc.com/Img/dossierpresse_rayman3.pdf | |||
:Since the publication, we had the official confirmation that the kangaroo creature from the intro is a "Flabar", thanks to the French description of the Sylkins and ''The History of Rayman''. | |||
:"Paluchard" is a pun with the word "paluche", synonym of "main" ("hand"). So this name had been associated to the dinosaur in Razoff's basement. | |||
:Now for the English names... | |||
:The "Flabar" could be called "Bonton" (thanks to the English description of the Sylkins). | |||
:But I've never see an English name for the Paluchards. | |||
:And I don't know where "Mawpaw" comes from, and why it had been associated to the kangaroo creature.-- [[User:Boomboleros7|Boomboleros7]] 19:47, 24 March 2015 (CET) | |||
