Trivia
Vermanubis imitating a Flame Choke on Nakat at 2GG: Hyrule Saga, which someone photoshopped to give Verm aesthetic features of Ganondorf to perpetuate the "Verm is Ganon" joke.
- It is commonly joked in the Smash community that Vermanubis is Ganondorf, for imitating the character at tournaments while having what many see to be a resemblance to the character.
- His tag is a gibberish of consonants to stand out uniquely and is not related to vermin or the ancient Egyptian god Anubis.
