Leafeon's coloring seems to be based on the {{wp|Point (coat color)|point coloring}} found in several breeds of cat, such as the {{wp|Siamese (cat)|Siamese cat}}. Its almond eyes, lean anatomy, love of the sun, and the fact it meows in the anime and game are also catlike traits. They also enjoy grooming themselves. It has long, tapering ears like a {{wp|Caracal}}. It also has traits of {{wp|plant}}s, such as the ability to utilize photosynthesis. In Japan, and around the world, there are stories about domesticated animals that upon entering the forest become wild and eventually become one with it. Leafeon could be an exaggerated example of this story.
Leafeon bears many similarities to cats, such as in its behaviors like tree climbing, and its cry sounds similar to a cat's meow. Like most Eevee evolutions, it also displays traits of foxes like the small {{wp|Fennec Fox}}, or tree-climbing {{wp|Gray Fox}}. It's coloration appears to be inspired by the markings found on animals like the {{wp|Siamese Cat}} or the {{wp|Red Fox}}. It also has traits of {{wp|plant}}s, such as the ability to utilize photosynthesis. In Japan, and around the world, there are stories about domesticated animals that upon entering the forest become wild and eventually become one with it.
