 ===Origin===
-Zubat's design is inspired by {{wp|bat}}s, specifically {{wp|vampire bat}}s, which produce toxic saliva with {{wp|anticoagulant}} properties that is secreted when biting prey to draw blood. Zubat's lack of eyes is a reference to {{wp|troglomorphism}}, and may also be influenced by the misconception that bats are blind or primarily dependent on {{wp|Animal echolocation|echolocation}} to navigate. The claim that Zubat suffers harm, and even burns, when exposed to sunlight alludes to mythological {{wp|vampire}}s.
