Woobat (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

→‎Trivia: Edited origin (Woobat is most likely not based on a Honduran white bat at all. It doesn’t have white fur, big eyes, or a yellow nose, and the traits it does share with the Honduran white bat are common in many other bats. It’s very much a stretch, so it shouldn’t be listed as this Pokémon’s primary inspiration.)

===Origin===
===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Woobat}}
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Woobat}}
Woobat appears to be based on the {{wp|Honduran white bat}} (a white species of fruit bat) and a literal interpretation of a {{wp|heart-nosed bat}}. It also bears some resemblance to a {{wp|vampire bat}}, despite its difference in diet. The hair covering its eyes may be a reference to bad eyesight of bats. Its shiny form's pale green coloration is likely inspired by the Honduran white bat's tent-making behavior, living beneath leaves that filter sunlight to give the bats a camouflaging greenish appearance. Woobat's nose resembles a rubber stamp, befitting its signature move, {{m|Heart Stamp}}. Its single tooth resembles baby teeth which may allude to its status as the first stage Pokémon with low base stats.
Woobat appears to be based on leaf-nosed bats in general. Its round nose leaf and sharp central tooth may be inspired by {{wp|vampire bats}}. It may also be a literal interpretation of a {{wp|heart-nosed bat}}. The hair covering its eyes may be a reference to the myth of bats being blind or having extremely poor eyesight. Woobat's nose resembles a rubber stamp, befitting its signature move, {{m|Heart Stamp}}. Its single tooth also resembles a baby tooth, which may allude to its status as a first-stage Pokémon with low base stats.
