→‎Trivia: Eh... if we're calling Zygarde 50% Forme's stomach coloring a "pattern", then Dunsparce and Seviper also have coloration that can more or less equally be called "patterns". For all three, it's mostly just texture.

* Drampa, Druddigon, and Helioptile can learn this move, which is known as へびにらみ ''Hebinirami'' (Snake Glare) in Japanese, despite not being based on a snake. This may be because Western dragons and snakes are both sometimes depicted as being capable of influencing their victims with eye contact, either by using some magical ability to immobilize those that look into their eyes or simply paralyzing them with fear.

* The descriptions of the move in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} and [[Generation IV]] onwards state that "''The user intimidates the {{tt|target|foe in Generations III and IV}} with the pattern on its belly''", a description that seems to be intended specifically for Arbok; Zygarde 50% Forme is the only other Pokémon that learns Glare that has a pattern on its stomach area that could be used to intimidate. The anime, manga, and Pokémon Stadium series portray Glare as a literal glare at the opponent instead.
