his last statment is currently in debate to decide if the evolutions of the starters are legit

Sugimori: I worried about it for a while, and I eventually went to go see the sea otters at the aquarium. I happened to catch the sea lion show while I was there, and I became aware of the sea lion's power. "Well, let's try blending a sea otter and a sea lion," I thought. I came up with the idea of making the shell on Mijumaru's stomach into a sword (katana) and using it to fight, and that's how I completed Mijumaru and its evolution."

some may not view the horn on the final evolution as a sword which is the main arguement

Also only a week remains , from the time of this post, till the release of Black and White

EDIT: heres a new interview in which Satoru Iwata, Tsunekaz Ishihara, Junichi Masuda and Ken Sugimori discuss various elements of pokemon black and white.
