Alolan Whip does not exist in the ''Pokémon'' games. It is instead based on a {{s|wikipedia|professional wrestling}} move, the [[wikipedia:professional wrestling throws#Irish whip|Irish whip]]. Additionally, the back body drop and lariat follow-ups are common real-life follow-ups to the Irish Whip. Alolan Whip's name is a combination of both the Irish Whip and {{s|bulbapedia|Alola}}, the {{s|bulbapedia|region}} from which Incineroar hails. The whip resembles the wrestling ring in Incineroar's signature Z-Move ''{{s|bulbapedia|Malicious Moonsault}}'' in ''Pokémon Sun and Moon''. The attack itself may be based on {{s|bulbapedia|Throat Chop}}, a move previously near-exclusive to Incineroar. | Alolan Whip does not exist in the ''Pokémon'' games.

*As a failed Alolan Whip causes [[recoil damage]], the move is one of the few that can force a tie during [[Stamina Mode]] by failing the move while both Incineroar and its victim have enough HP to be KO'd. | *As a failed Alolan Whip causes [[recoil damage]], the move is one of the few that can force a tie during [[Stamina Mode]] by failing the move while both Incineroar and its victim have enough HP to be KO'd. | ||
