Venonat (Japanese: コンパン Kongpang) is a dual-type Bug/Poison Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves into Venomoth starting at level 31.

Biology

Venonat using its "Radar Eye" to find Team Rocket's truck

Venonat has a round body covered in purple fur. Poison oozes from all over its fuzzy body. A pincer-like mouth, stubby forepaws, and a pair of clodhopper feet are visible through its fur. There is also a pair of white antennae sprouting from the top of its head. However, the most prominent feature on its face are its large, red eyes. Venonat's highly developed eyes help it find suitable prey and can shoot powerful beams.

Venonat can be found in dense forests, where it will sleep in the hole of a tree until nightfall. It sleeps throughout the day because the small insects it feeds on appear only at night. Both Venonat and its prey are attracted to bright lights.

Trivia

Origin

In spite of Venonat's name it is not similar to a gnat in size, physiology or behavior, other than on its compound eyes. It is likely also based on a mite, which also sucks blood, is round, and has a pincer-like mouth.

Name origin

Venonat is likely a combination of venom and gnat (a small insect).

Kongpang is possibly a combination of こんちゅう konchū (insect) and pang (the sound that a radar makes, referring to its radar-like eyes). It could also be a shortening of コンパウンド アイ compound eye, both referring to its eyes and its Ability.
