:::According to the wikipedia article, groundhogs are relativity the same size and weight of swinub. Swinub are adapt to digging just like groundhogs. swinub is a pig pokemon and a ground type and hog is is another word for pig. So far we have 3 things that makes it look like Groundhog is the animal they're based on from a wordplay angle. Also groundhogs are given a frosted appearance which could be why swinub has the ice type.

::::Wikipedia sucks, end of story. Sure, "groundhog" in Japanese is "グラウンドホッグ", but I ''really'' doubt they made Swinub based on that fact. That's like saying Raichu is based on thunder and lightning more than a mouse.
