 ===Origin===
-Venusaur appears to be based primarily on some form of {{wp|reptile}}, specifically the {{wp|tuatara}} or any of the mammal-like reptiles known as ''{{wp|Dicynodonts}}'' from the {{wp|Permian}} period or the {{wp|Kannemeyeria}}'' from the {{wp|Triassic}} period.
+Venusaur appears to be based primarily on the {{wp|toad}}. It does share some odd ressemblance to the ''{{wp|Kannemeyeria}}'', a mammal-like reptile from the  {{wp|Triassic}} period. The flower on its back seems to be based on the {{wp|rafflesia}}.
-Other than a lack of a tail, and with visible ears and no genuine metamorphosis stage (evolution aside), Venusaur does not have much in common with {{wp|amphibians}} like {{wp|frogs}} and {{wp|toads}} (which metamorphose from one definite creature into another as they mature as opposed to just growing into a larger adult version of itself the way that Venusaur does); instead, it more closely resembles reptiles like lizards and tuataras.
-The flower on its back resembles the {{wp|rafflesia arnoldii}}.
