And it was rephrased to:Why did you choose "Smogon" (German for "Koffing") as the name of this community?
Is there a story behind it? Since "Koffing" seems somewhat random.
And the response from the Admin was:This is one I've wondered: what is the origin of the term "Smogon"?
There is no explanation from Wikipedia as to why Smogon chose "Smogon" as their community name.Not only could this question be asked via another medium, but you could ask almost anyone who has been around for a while. Heck, checking Wikipedia would give you an answer so much earlier!
