Visually, Toxtricity resembles {{wp|lizard}}s, especially the ones from the {{wp|Agama (lizard)|Agama}} genus, like the {{wp|Mwanza flat-headed rock agama}} and the {{wp|Agama planiceps|Namib rock agama}}. Like Toxtricity, this genus is known for displaying a variety of bright colors and possessing spikes on the region of the ear. They also fight using their tails as whips. | Visually, Toxtricity resembles {{wp|lizard}}s, especially the ones from the {{wp|Agama (lizard)|Agama}} genus, like the {{wp|Mwanza flat-headed rock agama}} and the {{wp|Agama planiceps|Namib rock agama}}.

It also appears to take inspiration from {{wp|punk rock}} {{wp|guitarist}}s. Its Amped and Low Key forms resemble {{wp|electric guitar}}s and {{wp|bass guitar}}s, with the number of chest protrusions equaling the number of strings on each guitar (six and four, respectively) and, according to official bios, making a sound similar to that of the respective instrument when strummed by Toxtricity.<ref name="Amped"/><ref name="LowKey"/> Gigantamax Toxtricity's habit of generating a guitar-shaped spark to attack may be also a reference to an act performed by various artists, in which they smash their guitars onstage after a popular song. | |||
