Given its | Given its stiff, thin hairs and poison that oozes from all over its body as described by the Pokédex, I imagine that Venonat may be based at least partially on venomous hairy caterpillars, especially "rounder" ones like those in the Megalopyge genus. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megalopyge_opercularis] Real caterpillars may not have obvious antennae, but it's not uncommon to see them on cartoon representations. Some caterpillars (though none of the venomous ones, as far as I'm aware) are also carnivorous. [[User:Icycatelf|Icycatelf]] ([[User talk:Icycatelf|talk]]) 02:39, 10 July 2019 (UTC) |
