Description Venonat are interesting creatures.
Nocturnal by nature, during the day they live in large hollowed out trees or caves. At night they emerge and eat tiny insects and plants.
In some parts of Kanto you can find them still out in the early light, however it is rare to see them during the day.

Venonat have very large eyes, that are actually a cluster of millions of tiny eyes that allow it to be wary of predators. It also uses its eyes to hunt. At night You might see small pulses of red light if you live near an area where Venonat lives because their eyes can emmit small amounts of light, symilar to how sonar works with sound, the light bounces off things in the dark and comes back to the eyes, giving it the ability to seek out and find insects. The light that it emmits allows the Venonat to see in a very differnt way to many other species as they can find things many animals could not see with their plain eyes, even in sunlight as it creates a 3D map in their head. Study of venonats is still taking place as scientists are desperatly trying to utalise this process.
Thier eyes are very sensitive to sunlight and trainers are warned to slowly introduce them to battling in light.
Their 'fur' are made of two layers, a brittle outer layer which makes it dificult for predators to eat them whole, and a second finer layer that can break off, these are soaked in poisen and can cause extreamly bad irritation to the skin. In some cases people and animals are allergic and can even cause death.
Hope you like it

I'll keep in mind not to use "bite" against these things.

...So, I guess venonat isn't an actual insect. With four limbs and one body segment. Or are there extra segments and limbs under all that fur?

JoshuaDunlop In reply to Octoboy-the-8th [2009-08-21 08:23:02 +0000 UTC]

Its actually a caterpillar, so under that fur is a short fat worm-like body, true it only has four limbs, but that because it has evolved that way because the others became useless

Octoboy-the-8th In reply to JoshuaDunlop [2009-08-24 20:03:03 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, but you know what might make more sense? If each of its fingers was actually a leg, and the feet were fake legs. I've looked up caterpillars, and real ones walk on knoblike feet which aren't real legs, and have real legs turned into hands.

Cool idea with the light radar.

Great work, as always. Keep 'em coming, bro.

Random fact: When Satoshi Tajiri and Ken Sugimori were first designing the Pokemon, Venonat was originally supposed to evolve into what is now Butterfree. This fact has been confirmed, and explains why they look so much alike.

JoshuaDunlop In reply to SUP3R-N3RD-B3N [2009-07-02 22:15:24 +0000 UTC]

yer thats true they do look alike? i wonder why they decided to go for caterpie instead? or why venonat doesnt have a cacoon form?

SUP3R-N3RD-B3N In reply to JoshuaDunlop [2009-07-08 18:16:29 +0000 UTC]

I truly do not understand. It was originally Venonat --> Butterfree and Caterpie --> Metapod --> Venomoth. The names of the final stages (both in English and the original Japanese) probably were switched as well.

JoshuaDunlop In reply to SUP3R-N3RD-B3N [2009-07-08 21:18:37 +0000 UTC]

lol no, originally it was venonat (then called caterpie)-- Metapod -- Butterfree and Venomoth on its own. then they wanted caterpie to look more like a caterpiller i guess so they changed the design, but still liking the other design they stuck it on venomoth cos they were both purple and called it venonat. shows why venomoth has no cacoon stage

Oh yeah, sorry. Got a little confused - a word of warning: avoid situations like this by not DAing while you're on facebook chat. That causes a host of problems.
