  • No other Pokémon has the same type combination as the Zubat evolutionary family.
  • Zubat's evolutionary line seems to have a connection with Woobat's family. All the members of both lines are Bat Pokémon species (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 evolutionary relatives share their category with Woobat. They are all known as the Bat Pokémon.
  • Zubat, along with Golbat, has appeared in every regional Pokédex. This is due to the Unova Pokédex's expansion in Black 2 and White 2.
  • Zubat and Golbat are the only Pokémon to appear in the lineup of every villainous team in the main series games.
  • 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.
