Uh huh.
I don't think it makes them look bad at all. You're reading too much into it, this isn't a contest to see who can come up with the most original idea or something.
I don't think Raikou represents a tiger well at all, and Entei is even worse with the lion comparison. One could say you would look bad yourself for not pointing out Luxray which is also meant to be based on a lion (not myself because I really don't care to say someone looks bad for not mentioning a Pokemon, lol). I myself would love to have a lion/tiger Pokemon that was more directly based on the animal. Raikou/Entei are legendaries so it's understandable that they had to have designs more complex than a basic lion or tiger, but I don't think that does the majesty of those animals justice.
Typhlosion is considered to be based on a wolverine or a honey badger.I still think we need a honey badger Pokemon.
Uh huh.
Yeah, if you had looked through the posts you would see I mentioned that about Luxray just a few posts down.
You're just proving my point right now. If people looked at a few of the prior posts, then their questions would probably be answered.
Maybe you should think before you try to twist the words of people around.
Sure, warn me and call me rude because I said something you disagree with. Hypocrite.
You only mentioned Luxray once in passing as a feline Pokemon. I checked. Please watch your tone, this is a discussion, no reason to be rude to other people because they don't see the resemblance that you do or want a Pokemon to be based on something when one already has been. This is your warning.
I personally wouldn't like a Pokemon closer to the honey badger, especially considering it's only popular as an animal because of the meme. It just doesn't seem like it would make an interesting Pokemon unless they altered it drastically.
Adding the Platypus and Panda Bear animals, im pretty sure there isn't a Platypus pokemon yet and same with Panda. xD
Actually, Psyduck is very much considered a platypus (maybe a cross between a duck and platypus?), and there is Spinda. :P
spinda is more like Red panda... I think poster meant famous Giant Panda which looks NOTHING like spinda.
I'd have to go with a Giraffe or Zebra...
Teddiursa? Ursaring??? :s Not exactly panda but bear enough :/
Are these pokemon yet?
