Yeah, and at least those are their pets and they don’t, like, violently kidnap wild Pokémon to force those into fights.

We even have a regional word from that: “Entenklemmer”, which translates verbatim to “duck pincher”.

Some folks when leaving their ducks out of the enclosure, they’d check each duck for an egg in said pipeline. If there was one, they wouldn’t let that duck out, because well, they wanted that egg.

So, an Entenklemmer is a scrooge, someone going to great lengths to not miss out on even tiny profits.

It can also be onomatopoeia for eating something crispy. So, imagine a comic where a hamster is nibbling away at a cracker, then above that can be written:

Knusper Knusper

(basically Crunch Crunch)

But yeah, thanks for the rest of the explanation. I chose this username essentially at random when signing up here, but it’s been growing on me. Just a fun word in our language.
