How did you get "Bear" out of "Tamanoripū"? File:Big Face.png Unshy Guy 14:09, 22 June 2015 (EDT)

Ball-riding Pooh

The official website specifically refers to the bear itself as プー (Pū/Pooh). Roughly; "After defeating Pooh, Mario can ride on its ball." This indicates to me that タマノリプー is meant to be parsed as Ball-riding Pooh, rather than "Tamanoripū" being a name as such.
