Venusaur appears to be based primarily on {{wp|frogs}} with aspects of {{wp|dinosaurs}}.
Venusaur appears to be based primarily on some form of {{wp|reptile}}, specifically the {{wp|tuatara}} or any of the mammal-like reptiles known as ''{{wp|Dicynodonts}}'' from the {{wp|Permian}} period or the {{wp|Kannemeyeria}}'' from the {{wp|Triassic}} period.
 
Other than a lack of a tail, and with visible ears and no genuine metamorphosis stage (evolution aside), Venusaur does not have much in common with {{wp|amphibians}} like {{wp|frogs}} and {{wp|toads}} (which metamorphose from one definite creature into another as they mature as opposed to just growing into a larger adult version of itself the way that Venusaur does); instead, it more closely resembles reptiles like lizards and tuataras.
