First of all, you should be posting these in a different forum, like "Learning Japanese." Second of all, why didn't you just search for it at the same site, like this (http://www2.alc.co.jp/ejr/index.php?word_in=%82%A0%82%CE%82%BD&word_in2=%82%A9%82%AB%82%AD%82%AF%82%B1&word_in3=OBAtOfaOpYQDAHxosb)

An origin of Pocky of chocolate :wave:
From a homepage of Ezaki Glico
http://www.ezaki-glico.com/qa/products/other/answer/a08.html
A literal translation
I parody "a chocolate stick" at first
There was you as "chocolate Tettuku" in a meaning of a chocolate snack to eat in spite of being a walk.
I became "the Pocky chocolate" which had a sound of "POTTUKIN" when I did a sale experimentally afterwards.
