As its name suggests, it is a hybrid of an octopus and a shark, making it similar to the mythical lusca, a creature which is featured in mythology of the Caribbean, and said to be a hybrid of shark and octopus.
The nose of this monster resembles the rostrum (snout) of a sawfish.
This card appears to be a base version of Sharkraken. This relationship can be seen more easily in the direct translation of the Japanese name for Shocktopus, which is actually Sharktopus.
In this card's debut appearance, Shocktopus was Tributed for the Special Summoning effect of Sharkraken"
This direct translation was likely not used to avoid copyright issues, as Sharktopus is also the name of 2010 Roger Corman film released on SyFy.
