 ===Origin===
-Poliwrath is based on a {{wp|glass frog}}. The spiral pattern on its belly is supposed to represent how the organs of these frogs and other tadpoles can sometimes be seen through their transparent skin. It may also be based on amphibian {{wp|neoteny}}, as it stays in tadpole form and does not {{wp|Metamorphosis#Amphibians|metamorphose}} into a {{wp|frog}}. Its brawny body and newfound {{type|Fighting}} could be an interpretation of the frogs' bulky bodies and vastly heightened muscle mass and strength in comparison to the infant tadpole.
