* Unlike most evolved Pokémon, except in the case of [[baby Pokémon]], it is far more common in the wild than its pre-evolution. This is due to Kricketune being available at all times of day, while {{P|Kricketot}} is only found at night (as well as morning in {{v2|Platinum}}).

Kricketune appears to be based on a {{wp|violin beetle}}, as well as {{wp|crickets}} because they make sounds by rubbing their arms on their abdomen. Its body resembles {{wp|string instruments}}. It also resembles music conductors, due to its mustache and wings that look like a cape.
