Pokemon you thought were based off something else than what they were really

So, when you saw a Pokemon at first, did you think it was really something else until you found out what it was really based off? For me, Groudon. It's a LOBSTER with a buzzer for a tail.

I only made a small mistake, I though Magikarp was based of a Carp (Y'know, the name and all), turns out its based of a koi (S'pose it makes sense, it is a Japanese game).
