Daylight causes Zubat to become unhealthy, and prolong exposure can tied burn its clamber. however, captured and coach Zubat have been recorded as being much more coherent in the day, even when immediately exposed to sunbeams. In cold conditions, Zubat gathers with others of its kind for warmheartedness.

triviality
- No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Zubat and its evolved forms.
- Zubat’s evolutionary family has several similarities with Woobat’s. All of the members of both lines are called the Bat Pokémon (excluding Swoobat), live in caves or other dark places, and have no visible eyes at their respective unevolved states; furthermore, members of both lines reach their respective fully-evolved forms by friendship, and both have similar Shiny forms (with green main bodies). Also, Zubat and Woobat have somewhat similar English names, both having rhyming prefixes and bat as a suffix.
- Zubat and its evolved forms share their category with Woobat. They are all known as the Bat Pokémon.
- Despite its lack of eyes, Zubat is still capable of learning Mean Look.
- Zubat can be seen as a parallel to Noibat, as they are both Flying-type Pokémon based on bats and can have Infiltrator as a possible Ability. They also share the same base stats, with their Attack and Special Attack switched around.
- Zubat and its following evolutionary forms are the only Pokémon (other than Mew) that are capable of learning Brave Bird whose designs aren’t at least partially inspired by birds.
- Zubat and its evolved forms are the only Poison-type Pokémon in the Flying Egg Group.
origin
Zubat seems to be based on a bat, particularly vampire bats, which bite early animals to feed on their rake. Its Poison-type may be inspired by either the anticoagulant properties of vampire bat saliva or the fact that bats are ill-famed for spreading deadly diseases such as rabies. Its lack of eyes could be a reference to troglomorphism and may additionally be influenced by the misconception that bats are blind due to their consumption of echolocation to navigate. The claim that Zubat will suffer burns when exposed to sunlight may be inspired by fabulous vampires .
name origin
Zubat may be a combination of bat and ずばっと zubatto ( piercingly ) .
