Djinzello
The duality pokemon
It is based on Aicha Kandicha, a mythical character in Moroccan folklore who is similar to Jinn. She is often portrayed as a gorgeous young woman who has hoofed legs like a camel or goat, using her beauty to either drive local men insane or kill them. I also inspired its design by Tanoura, a dance heavily associated with Sufi Islam and is also the national dance of Egypt, and goat + camel symbolism. Goats symbolized abundance, aggression, and good luck in Mesopotamia, Sumer, and Akkad, and camels symbolize
The name is a combination of Inzinselo, the Zulu word for hooves, Sello which is the Spanish word for 'stamp' (as in stamping one's foot), and Djinn, a synonym for the Arabic word Jinn/jinni.
