Torterra has aspects of a {{wp|snapping turtle}} and an {{wp|ankylosaurus}}, a species of armored dinosaur. It may also be based upon the {{wp|Akupara|world turtles}} in various mythologies that carry worlds upon their backs, or perhaps the {{wp|Black_Tortoise|Xuanwu/Genbu}} of various Asian myths.
