Trivia

Origin

Appearance-wise, it remembles the dinosaur known as the Dromaeosaurus. It is assumed that the dinosaur had feathers much like how Grovyle has leaves on its body.

Name origin

Grovyle's name is a combination of the words grove, meaning a group of trees, and possibly vile. Of course, -vyle could also refer to "reptile". Its Japanese name is based on reptile and jungle.
