Pokemon hair?

[MantisboyN]

So It just donned on me that most Pokemon should have hair. I just can't picture something like a Diglett or Zubat having hair. And what really made me wonder, was that most Pokemon lay eggs, so they must all be like the Platypus or Echidna. Thus I really can't picture most Pokemon with hair.. except for the obvious ones like Jynx.

i always felt like this is a hair too

 

[Empathy]

Well, to be honest I have never even thought about this before. I always think of some pokemon's forms of fur or hair as what type they are;

Bird: Feathers.
Dog/Cat: Fur.
Bats: The little hairs that might pop out - hair.
Bugs: Never seen one with fur.

etc.

And no, I couldn't picture some pokemon having hair either, maybe because everyone here is so used to playing the games and used to the originals.

Here's one I don't get. It's like...hair...with teeth.

 

[Yoshikko]

Loool yeah I agree on the Pidgeot line XD

[...]
Bugs: Never seen one with fur.

Also on the bugs that have no fur: see Volcarona, it's covered in it lol. And let's not forget Jynx. UHH sorry I didn't see that you mentioned her already in the OP haha, anyways this picture is still awesome so it's staying.

 

[MantisboyN]

Yeah, Jynx is definitely one with hair. And that is an awesome pic.
But are pokemon supposed to be soft? Like, what would a diglett feel like, versus a poochyena or something. I just can't picture it.

Diglett... I like to think it's a mole or something. Or a furry stump. I mean I can't imagine it with like a leathery body. Not exactly soft because it hangs out in the dirt, but not calloused.

Probably a body that feels like metal but isn't?
Speaking of which that would be weird to touch a metallic body that breathes.

I don't think Pokemon are supposed to have hair (and by hair I mean hair like humans!). Though I believe they have the same characteristics with animals, thus having furs, feathers, scales, and the likes. That's probably the closest thing you'll get to "hair".

 

[Mechanic]

But isn't digglet supposed to be some sort of worm? So it would be squishy-ish of sorts?

 

[Alternative]

This is an interesting point you make here. I know in Johto there were a few brothers who would offer to give your Pokemon a haircut in exchange for money. I can't see Pokemon having hair, but it makes sense. Think of it like a dog or cat: it's not exactly hair, but you can get it cut. Some Pokemon like Ratatta or Growlithe would be capable of receiving such a haircut.

I just can't picture something like a Diglett or Zubat having hair.

How's that for a picture lol. This took awhile to make, but at least now we know what a Diglett with hair would look like.......maybe xD

 

[lloebet]

Blaziken has hair :0 lol hes a blonde.

 

[The Nightmare]

Here's one I don't get. It's like...hair...with teeth.

Same, But I don't thats suppose to be hair and its more like a mouth than hair.

 

[arbok]

Here's one I don't get. It's like...hair...with teeth.

Mawlie is based on a myth in Japan when women who are starved grow a mouth in the back of their head to help eat more. It later changed into stories of pretty women who eat men with their hair.

 

[Legobricks]

I just can't picture something like a Diglett [...] having hair.

It's covered in only sparse, fine hairs; observe this TCG card:

i always felt like this is a hair too

Blaziken has hair :0 lol hes a blonde.

Both monsters supposedly have crests of feathers, not hair.

 

[Skymin]

Here's one I don't get. It's like...hair...with teeth.

Not quite.

Emerald PokéDex Entry:

"Its giant jaws are actually steel horns that transformed. It fools foes into complacency with its adorable gestures, then chomps them with its huge jaws."​

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Mawile's skin is made of steel. Which sounds weird.

You are my hero! Lol I want all the little digletts to look like this!
