Its body is covered with shaggy yellow fur and has several, zigzagging brown stripes. The female has thinner stripes than the male. It has large, green hands with two black lines on its palms.

Trivia
- Ludicolo and its pre-evolutions, Lotad and Lombre, have several unique attributes:
- They have a unique type combination.
- They are the only Pokémon with a dual Egg Group of Water 1 and Grass.
- They are the only Pokémon that can have the Ability Rain Dish without it being their Hidden Ability.
- Ludicolo's evolutionary line are very similar with Shiftry's family. Both of them are part Grass-type, they first evolve at level 14, a respective evolutionary stone is used to reach the final stage, are version-exclusive between Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, and are based on japanese legendary creatures or yokai: Ludicolo's family are based on the kappa and Shiftry's is based on the tengu. They both also have fur or hair covering portions of their bodies.
Origin
Ludicolo may be based on a duck, platypus, kappa, and a giant colocynth or pineapple. With its sombrero-shaped head, poncho-like body hair, and association with music and dance, it also seems to be based on a stereotypical Mexican dancer.
Name origin
Ludicolo may be a combination of ludic (aimlessly playful) or ludicrous (laughable or absurd) and colocynth (a plant that bears a round, yellow and green fruit). Colo may be an anagram of loco, the Spanish word for crazy.
Alternatively, it may be a reference to the Spanish word ridículo meaning ridiculous, just as Lombre is a reference to the Spanish word hombre.
Runpappa may be a combination of ルンルン runrun (happy or bouncy) and pappa (the sound of a rapid drumbeat). It may also be a combination of rumba and kappa.
