Linoone's appearance is possibly a cross between the {{wp|European Badger}} and a member of the {{wp|weasel}} and/or {{wp|ferret}} family. It has the same color scheme of a {{wp|raccoon dog|tanuki}} and a {{wp|raccoon}} and its stripes slightly resemble flames and lightning, which may be a reference to {{wp|Auto Racing|race cars}}, who typically use these patterns on their vehicles for show. Linoone may be based on the legendary {{wp|Kamaitachi}}, which is usually depicted as 3 lightning fast weasels who wield razor-sharp claws which tear into their victims. It may also be based on the {{wp|Ramidreju}}: a long, weasel-like creature, who has a desire for gold, which may have been the basis of Linoone's obsession for round objects. Its appearance may also based on a {{wp|ferret-badger}}. | Linoone's appearance is possibly a cross between the {{wp|European Badger}} and a member of the {{wp|weasel}} and/or {{wp|ferret}} family.
