Nuzleaf is probably based on an {{wp|acorn}}, 天狗 ''{{wp|Tengu}}'', tricky Japanese goblins who are known for their long noses, cruel tricks, and ability to read minds, and possibly on {{wp|Pinnochio}}. Nuzleaf's shiny color, combined with it pointed nose, makes it very similar to a Red Pikmin from the {{wp|Pikmin (series)|Pikmin series}}.
