Trivia
- At first, Scameleon was called “Crookleon”; the name was swapped because it didn't roll off the tongue well.
- Scameleon's purple color is a reference to the Mystery Dungeon Kecleon.
- Its tail was detachable in early iterations, and it could be used as a club. This was abandoned later on as it didn't fit the character well.
- The initial pitch for Scameleon was the idea that Inteleon had a sort of villain counterpart.
- The Jackson Chameleon was a reference early on, but later on became more inspired by the Frilled Lizard.
- Scameleon was originally going to receive a heavy redeisgn, but it was decided against as the redesign was ended up not looking the part.
Origin
Scameleon is based on a Chameleon and Frilled Lizard. Its purple coloring is based on the Kecleon from Mystery Dungeon. Its black eye coverings, hands, and feet are to reflect its criminal nature, resembling a mask, gloves, and boots, respectively. Its white and translucent tail is to reflect its ghost typing. Its color change ability is based on the Chameleon's ability to camouflage.
Etymology
Scameleon is a combination of the words Scam and Chameleon.
