Mandibuzz is based on an {{wp|Old World vulture}}, most closely resembling a {{wp|lappet-faced vulture}} with the prominent ruff of a {{wp|white-rumped vulture}}. Its design also bears resemblance to stereotypical "savages" or {{wp|barbarian}}s. The row of teeth around its waist resembles an apron.

According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Vullaby and Mandibuzz were added late into the development of {{2v2|Black|White}}. When Mandibuzz was originally created by [[James Turner]], it was unrelated to {{p|Braviary}}, but it was later decided to use its design as a counterpart to Braviary.
