Croagunk is based off of a poison dart frog, according to its origin on this site. Besides, we can never determine what the creator of the Pokemon used for inspiration, unless they explicitly tell us, so we just have to go with our best educated guess as a group. Assuming they did I halfway decent job with the design, we should be able to figure out what they were going for. Finally, I never said their wasn't a difference between frogs and toads (a primary one is toads are more land dwellers, while frogs prefer being in the water more), but, regardless, I do think Froakie is based on a frog (specifically of the tree variety), so I'm not arguing against you there. | Croagunk is based off of a poison dart frog, according to its origin on this site.

:* I think the point was that it could be any frog. It could be based off of a bullfrog for all we know right now. Either that or I am misreading Doggy567123's comment as sarcasm. (also, I thought toads were "wartier" than most frogs or something like that; looking this up there are exceptions to the "wart" rule and the "prefers water to land" or "land to water" rule) Also, {{p|Croagunk}} '''maybe''' based off of a poison dart frog. But if you ask me, it is based off of one and the same with {{p|Toxicroak}}, though one of their abilities is {{a|Dry Skin}} and toads are associated with having drier skin, still many things can be argued about this and I'm digressing. Froakie looks like a frog-like amphibian, it could be based off of any species of frog or toad for all we know (guessing more frog because of the whole "water-type" thing, and it doesn't look like a {{wp|fire-bellied toad}}). ----[[User:NateVirus|<span style="color:blue">NateVirus</span>]]<small>''([[User talk:NateVirus|<span style="color:green">Talk</span>]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|<span style="color:red">Contributions</span>]]''</small>) 02:28, 14 January 2013 (UTC) | |||
