  • "Gatchiri" is based on the Japanese onomatopoeia for "protect", reflecting this monster's shield and protective effects.
  • While its in-universe inspiration is unknown, it may be based on Bohman, Harlin, and their "Hydradrive" monsters.
    • This monster features a short but stocky design, which may be a combination Harlin's short height and Bohman's muscular physique.
    • This monster's shield resembles a dragon's head, which corresponds to the "Hydradrive" monsters, who feature reptilian and/or draconic designs.
    • This monster's effects reference the effects of various "Hydradrive" Link Monsters:
      • The negation effect references how most Link-2 and above "Hydradrive" Link Monsters could negate monster effects if they shared the same Attribute.
      • The protection effect references "Perfectron Hydradrive Dragon's" effect to protect itself from being destroyed by removing a Hydradrive Counter.
      • The effect to make one of your monsters unaffected by the opponent's card effects is likely based on that of "Paradox Hydradrive Atlas" who could also become unaffected by the opponent's card effects if there was a monster with the same Attribute on the field.
    • This monster's protective effects reflect how Bohman and his predecessors were meant to be vessels that the Ignis could fuse into in order to become a singular unstoppable AI.
  • The "@Ignister" logo is located in the orb on this monster's shield
