 ===Origin===
-Due to the mystery around Tangela's appearance under the {{wp|vines}}, it may be based on the {{wp|swamp monster}} from the short story "{{wp|It! (short story)|It!}}" by {{wp|Theodore Sturgeon}}, that is ultimately revealed to have formed around a human skeleton. In addition, it may also be inspired by Sargassum seaweed monsters written by the English writer {{wp|William Hope Hodgson}} that inspired monsters in Japanese pop culture.
