Carracosta appears to draw inspiration from ''{{wp|Archelon}}'', the largest known species of sea turtle from the Late Cretaceous period. Its blue skin and dark gray carapace give it the same color scheme as the {{wp|leatherback sea turtle}}. The fact it eats steel beams draws from the fact that sea turtles are able to bend metal bars with their jaws. The front of its shell also bears resemblance to a {{wp|bulletproof vest}}. | Carracosta appears to draw inspiration from ''{{wp|Archelon}}'', the largest known species of sea turtle from the {{wp|Late Cretaceous}} period.
