Animals That Don't Have a Pokemon 'Counterpart'

[Gulpin]

You know how most Pokemon have an animal that it is based off of? Well, there are some animals that don't have a Pokemon 'Counterpart'. Let's think and name some animals that don't have a Pokemon 'Counterpart'. I say a Chinchilla.

 

[Oni Link]

:o is there not a Pokemon that's like a Chinchilla?!
Well, how about a Lion? That's pretty blatant, I'm surprised they haven't made one of them yet.

 

[geckoriot]

I think Luxray and its basic/secondary form are based on lions.
Similarly though, the tiger doesn't really have a blatant Pokemon counterpart? Growlithe and Arcanine's markings resemble that of a tiger, but they're obviously dogs. Raikou, sabre-toothed tiger, sure - but still seems a tad obscure. hmm, how about meerkats?
And they don't do many lizard-esque Pokemon; what about a ground-type monitor lizard? That'd be wicked.
And yarr, canine Pokemon have been done to death - but what about an arctic fox ice-type? d'aww!

 

[EmpoleMew]

The only animals I can think of that don't have a Pokemon counterpart are the star-nosed mole and the naked mole rat. Most Pokemon are based off of legends or historical figures.

 

[♥~*Abby*~♥]

How about a tiger? I'm pretty sure they covered a lion with Luxray, but what about a tiger?

 

[EmpoleMew]

Is there a Pokemon based on a warthog? I'm pretty sure I wouldn't of missed that one.

 

[Jonbo]

How about a tiger? I'm pretty sure they covered a lion with Luxray, but what about a tiger?

Ahem Arcanine *cough cough*

 

[EmpoleMew]

Arcanine is actually a dog with tiger markings. The name even plainly states "CANINE".
Tigers are FELINES.

Hmm. I don't think I've seen a prairie dog Pokemon.

common house pet for some people Cockroach, also a Snow Bear

[Jonbo]

hmmmm..... whata bout a flamingo? It seems that they would have made some rediculous falmingo based pokemon who is about as worthless as Stantler

 

[melod.ii ous demyx~♪]

A Moose.

and a Poodle.

I also agree with the tiger one.

 

[Virtual Chatot]

Turkey

and a Peacock

but what about an arctic fox ice-type? d'aww!

Like Glaceon?

I think there are a distinct lack of Slime Pokemon.

 

[geckoriot]

Kind of like Glaceon... but fluffier, with a 2/3-stage evolutionary line, without the negative connotations of being 'just another eeveelution'. To appeal to the lame girly population of the Pokemon fanbase such as myself

 

[Halcyon]

What about a snail?

Never seen one of those yet.

 

[airconditioning]

Remember Slugma and Magcargo?

 

[Halcyon]

Erm... Aren't Slugma and Magcargo slugs?

 

[Sushi.]
