Seviper is based on a viper; specifically, the {{wp|habu}}, a type of venomous {{wp|snake}} that was often pitted against {{wp|mongoose}}s in roadside shows. This practice is now considered inhumane and is rarely seen today. Aside from its scars, the shape of its color pattern resembles that of the {{wp|Trimeresurus elegans | Sakishima habu}}. The rivalry it shares with Zangoose is based on the relationship between mongooses and snakes. | Seviper is based on a viper; specifically, the {{wp|habu}}, a type of venomous {{wp|snake}} that was often pitted against {{wp|mongoose}}s in roadside shows.
