The website description says "Not only is the fur that covers its body good insulation against the cold, but it also serves the purpose of storing electricity", which is a characteristic of the chinchilla, a rodent that lives in the Andes mountains. Additionally, the ears, tail, and the bulging fur around its legs greatly resembles the chinchilla.

:[https://pokewiki.de/Pamo Pawmi's page on Pokewiki.de] suggests that it may be based on a genus of voles known as ''{{wp|Microtus}}'' (they also suggested that's where the "mi" in Pawmi's name came from). personally i'm not too sure about this inspiration, though (Microtus literally means "small ears" and are named such because they have small ears, while Pawmi's ears are pretty big for its size).
