Staraptor is a grayish-brown, avian Pokémon similar to a large bird of prey. It has small, red eyes and a thin, yellow beak with a black tip. There is a circular white patch on its forehead, which is smaller on the female. Larger white markings cover the front of its throat and chest, separated by a black ruff encircling the shoulders. A red-tipped black crest extends over its head, nearly reaching the tip of its beak. Staraptor is fussy about the shape of this comb, which it uses to appear larger and frighten enemies. It has large wings, five black-tipped tail feathers, and yellow feet with black talons. Its powerful wing and leg muscles allow it to fly effortlessly while carrying other Pokémon, small or large.
In Lost Leader Strategy!, Reggie's Staraptor was the final Pokémon he used in his battle with Ash; it was defeated by Pikachu's Volt Tackle. In Crossing the Battle Line!, Staraptor taught Ash's Staravia Brave Bird. It reappeared in Aiding the Enemy and Saving the World From Ruins!.

A Staraptor is one of the Pokémon used by the Advanced level Grunt of Team Galactic. It was first used to take the Grunt to the destroyed camera machine used by Saturn in his fight against Paka and Uji. It was later used in the mugging of Mr. Berlitz and later to battle Diamond at the Galactic HQ. It first appeared in Great Gible.
A Staraptor was used by Darach in his battle against Platinum in Getting the Drop on Gallade II. It used a combination of Double Team and Roost to tire Platinum's Empoleon, but Empoleon's Blizzard eventually won out.
Staraptor is based on the white-cheeked starling, a common species of bird found throughout Asia, combined with a bird of prey. Although it largely resembles the starling in appearance, much of its inspiration comes from hawks and falcons, particularly its predatory nature and aerial speed. It also has strong similarities to the harpy eagle. The feathers hanging over its face are similar to the long-crested eagle.

Ever since Jurassic Park made Velociraptor a household name, its iconic image — a man-sized, intelligent, vicious, toothy, scaly killer — has appeared countless times in popular culture, usually as a Shout-Out to Jurassic Park.
Velociraptor, while still believed to be an agile and clever predator in its own right, was actually a bird-of-prey-like hunter about the size of a turkey. The actual inspiration for the creatures found in the book and film is its larger cousin Deinonychus. Later books and films also pull in elements of Utahraptor, The Big Guy of the family which actually exceeds the size and build of the creatures in the film.
Besides Velociraptor, Deinonychus and Utahraptor, this trope potentially encompasses all portrayals of other deinonychosaurian dinosaurs in media as well, such as the dromaeosaurids and troodontids. In reality, the group is made up of many species with various hunting strategies ranging from tiny to huge in size, sharing traits like their famous sickle claws, carnivorous diet, bipedal stance, and recently discovered feathers. In fiction, however, the family shares traits like near-human intelligence, green or brown scaly skin, roughly human size, an insatiable desire to kill, and the name Velociraptor.
Science Marches On has further complicated things. At the time Michael Crichton wrote Jurassic Park, the dromaeosaurid subfamily Velociraptorinae was classified as a large collection of species resembling its namesake member, which included Deinonychus. Thus this species was at the time considered to technically be a velociraptorine, note Including in reference books such as Gregory Paul's Predatory Dinosaurs of the World, which was a major reference source for Michael Crichton while writing Jurassic Park, and the Rule of Cool dictated Crichton use the name that could be shortened to "raptor".
This is no longer the case, however, thanks to some shuffling of classifications. Deinonychus is no longer a velociraptorine. There are analyses that suggest troodontids and dromaeosaurids were not close relatives at all, and/or that some groups traditionally considered to be dromaeosaurids were not, instead being closer to modern birds (although others maintain the traditional view). Some recent analyses also suggest that the so-called "first bird" Archaeopteryx may either be a deinonychosaur as well (in other words, closer to Velociraptor than to modern birds), or farther from modern birds than deinonychosaurs are. This has even led to speculation that traditional dromaeosaurids may have had ancestors who became flightless. And in a final hilarious twist, there is still no universal agreement on where Deinonychus fits in the raptor's Tangled Family Tree.
It's worth noting that before Jurassic Park made Velociraptor famous, Deinonychus was the most frequently-seen dromaeosaur in pop-culture. Many dinosaur-themed works of fiction from the 1970s and 1980s feature Deinonychus as the token dromaeosaur.
Usually an example of Artistic License – Paleontology, what with Jurassic Park being the Trope Codifier, and sometimes of Rule of Cool, if raptors are added just for coolness. See also Ptero Soarer and T. Rexpy. 2ff7e9595c
