Bulbasaur is based on a {{wp|frog}} with aspects of a {{wp|dinosaur}}.
Bulbasaur appears to be based primarily on some form of {{wp|reptile}}, specifically mammal-like reptiles known as ''{{wp|Dicynodonts}}'' from the {{wp|Permian}} period. Along with visible ears and no genuine metamorphosis stage (evolution aside), Bulbasaur appears to have more in common with {{wp|mammals}} than {{wp|amphibians}} like {{wp|frogs}} and {{wp|toads}}, which metamorphose from one definite creature into another as they mature as opposed to just growing into a larger adult version of itself the way that Bulbasaur does.
 
The bulb on its back seems to resemble that of a {{wp|lily}} or {{wp|onion}}.
