 ===Origin===
 {{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Woobat}}
-With its light-colored fur, prominent nose and round shape, Woobat appears to be based on {{wp|Honduran white bat}}s. In particular, their shape resembles how these bats look when they're curled up together. Sunlight filters through the leaves these bats sleep on and make their white fur appear green during the day, which would mirror Woobat's {{Shiny}} form.

 It may also be a literal interpretation of a {{wp|heart-nosed bat}}. The hair covering its eyes may be a reference to the myth of bats being blind or having extremely poor eyesight. Woobat's nose resembles a rubber stamp, befitting its signature move, {{m|Heart Stamp}}. Its round nose leaf and sharp central tooth may be inspired by {{wp|vampire bats}}; this tooth also resembles a baby tooth, which may allude to its status as a first-stage Pokémon with low base stats.
