Sobble appears to be based on the {{wp|veiled chameleon}} due to its color scheme being similar to that of the males. The way this species collects water droplets from its casque (the helmet-like protrusion on top of its head) into its mouth could resemble tears which could explain the tear-like patches on Sobble's face, its actual tears when crying, and its {{t|Water}} typing. Its typing, in addition to the crest on its head, suggests it may be partly inspired by the {{wp|Basiliscus (genus)|basilisk lizard}} as well.
