Trivia
- In the Japanese Famicom version, Dr.Distorto had a small bloodstain on his shirt, which was removed in the English prototype and Mother 1+2 port.
- In both the novelization and Mother: Invasion from the Unknown, Dr. Distorto is in fact Lloyd's father, Dr. Schneider.
- In the novelization, Lloyd's father is given the cruel nickname of "Dr. Distorto" by Giegue, having him disfigured for feigning loyalty. Distorto also explains to the party that Giegue must retreat into a coccoon made of his own bodily fluids at intervals as a sort of metamorphosis. While making his escape from Giegue's mothership, Distorto was shot at by an OmegaSaucer, scarring his face, breaking his legs, and rendering his right arm disabled. Distorto was also able to build Eve, basing her appearance off of the likeness of his late wife, Lloyd's mother.[1]
- In Mother: Invasion from the Unknown, Dr. Distorto worked alongside the US Government and Ninten's father to rebuilt Eve, recovering her frame from the wreckage of a crashed alien spacecraft[2].
