Venonat (コンパン, Konpan?) (VENN-oh-nat[1]) is a Bug/Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

Venonat is covered in large, purple fur. The feet of Venonat are brown and are about half as long as Venonat itself with its hands being the same color but a third of the size. Venonat have two white antennae that stick out of their head. The most notable feature of Venonat is their large, red eyes. It also has a small nose just under its eyes.

Natural abilities[]

Venonat can have the ability Compoundeyes or the ability Tinted Lens. Compoundeyes increases Venonat's accuracy by 30%. Tinted Lens increases the power of not-very-effective moves by 1.5x. Venonat's eyes are very accurate: they enable Venonat to easily catch extremely small prey. Conway has a Venonat in the episode Camping It Up.

Evolution[]

Venonat evolves into Venomoth starting at level 31.

Trivia[]

Origin[]

Venonat resembles parasitic insects such as fleas and ticks, possibly based on the former due to its large feet which it uses to hop. It may also be based on a radar system as its eyes function like one and its antennae resemble those found on them.

Etymology[]

Venonat's name is derived from the words "venom" and "gnat".
