ha! I love that it’s a nod to motorhead. I had no idea, but thas what I thought about when I went to lemmy
With the Lemmy Koopa being named after the Motörhead singer, that makes him 2/4 on the listed reasons.
Also, little known fact: the rodent is also named after the Motörhead singer. Weird but true.
Get all that out of here. My headcanon would always be this:

Ah so it’s a mix of things but also lemmings. They travel in groups and disperse from time to time so it makes for an appropriate mascot.
