===Physiology===
Venonat is an {{wp|insectoid|insect}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a spherical body covered in purple fur. The fur releases a toxic liquid and it spreads when shaken violently off their bodies. A pink pincer-like mouth with two teeth, stubby forepaws, and a pair of two-toed feet are visible through its fur. Its limbs are light tan. There is also a pair of white antennae sprouting from the top of its head. However, the most prominent feature on its face are its large, red {{wp|compound eye}}s. Venonat's highly developed eyes act as radar units and can shoot powerful beams.

====Gender differences====
Venonat can be found in dense {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|temperate forests}}, where it will sleep in the hole of a tree until nightfall. It sleeps throughout the day because the small insects it feeds on appear only at night. Both Venonat and its prey are attracted to bright lights.

==Trivia==
* Venonat's antennaes change shape between its Generation I and Generation II sprites, gaining volume at the end of each stalk.  They returned to their Generation I design in Generation III, and have remained that way since.
<!--DO NOT ADD TRIVIA ABOUT VENONAT BEING RELATED TO BUTTERFREE.-->
* Venonat and {{p|Venomoth|its evolved form}} are the Pokémon that went the longest without appearing in a regional [[Pokédex]], excluding their appearances in remakes: prior to the release of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, their last appearance in a regional Pokédex was in {{v2|Crystal}}, almost 22 years earlier.
 
===Origin===
===Origin===
Venonat is most likely based on a gnat.
Venonat seems to draw inspiration from multiple insects, which may include {{wp|Flea|fleas}}, {{wp|Mite|mites}}, {{wp|Fly|flies}}, {{wp|Owlfly|owlflies}}, flightless {{wp|Moth|moths}}, and/or {{wp|Caterpillar#Human health|venomous caterpillars}}. Its large {{wp|compound eye}}s function like {{wp|radar}} and resemble {{wp|parabolic antenna}}s.
 
====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Venonat's name is likely a combination of ''[[wp:venom|venom]]'' and ''[[wp:gnat|gnat]]'', a small insect. Its Japanese name is possibly a combination of こんちゅう ''konchū'', meaning ''insect'', and the word ''pang'', which is the sound that a {{wp|radar}} makes, referring to its radar-like eyes. It could also be a shortening of コンパウンド　アイ, ''compound eye'', both referring to its eyes and its {{a|Compoundeyes|ability}}.
Venonat may be combination of ''{{wp|venom}}'' and ''{{wp|gnat}}'' (a small insect).
 
Kongpang may be derived from ''{{wp|compound eye}}'' (visual organ found in insects) or 昆虫 ''konchū'' (insect).
