Animals that aren't Pokemon yet...

They should make a cricket Pokemon
[PokeCommunity.com] Animals that aren't Pokemon yet...

What about a Great white shark or a Hammerhead?
A Hammerhead would be nice but...
[PokeCommunity.com] Animals that aren't Pokemon yet...

A Meerkat even?
[PokeCommunity.com] Animals that aren't Pokemon yet...

... Okay he's not a COMPLETE Meerkat his anatomy looks close to one.

I think there are plenty of animals that aren't Pokemon... Yet. (Oh god)

Something I would love to see as a Pokemon is the Two-Headed Skink:
[PokeCommunity.com] Animals that aren't Pokemon yet...

This would be an awesome Pokemon concept. It could even have an ability which cuts accuracy or something.
 
Dolphin - Gorebyss

Have you...seen a Dolphin? Gorebyss looks nothing like one.

I would love an Ice/Dark snow leopard though, or a Water/Electric swordfish.
 
an Ankylosaurus,.

I know it's mostly turtle, but I would say that Torterra has some rather Ankylosaurus-like characteristics (that's why I named mine Kylo.)

Zigzagoon is a raccoon, hence the name . . . And Zoroark is a wolf.

Zoroark is a fox. His species is actually listed as "Illusion Fox."

An honest to goodness spotted Hyena. Mightyena isn't a spotted Hyena; I don't know what species of Hyena it's supposed to be but it looks like a wolf. If they were going to make my favorite animal into a Pokemon it should be a ghost type.

Mightyena is based off of a striped hyena. I agree a real spotted hyena would be good. Especially since they made Mightyena a sort of hyena/wolf thing, and hyenas aren't canids.

They did sort of the same thing with Watchog. It's like a groundhog and a meerkat, which leads most people to think that meerkats are rodents. In actuality they're closer to mongooses, and would probably eat rodents.

Why is it that mongoose relatives are so prone to being mistaken for other species? lol.

A haunt would be cool
It's a venomous rabid ghost dog

Other ideas:
Cerberus
Kiwi
Dolphin
Lion
Tiger
Loch Ness Monster
Chimera
Krakken
Bunyip
Wolf
Headless Chicken- Ghost/Flying
Panda
Echidna
A Non Ninetailed fox(not including vulpix)

Luxray is a lion, Lapras is a Loch Ness Monster, and Cyndaquil is an echidna. A mostly tiger-based pokemon would be good. We have pokemon with tiger characteristics (Arcanine, Raikou) but not a tiger pokemon per-say.

Whoever mentioned frogs, we have frogs: Croagunk and Toxicroak.

I want a sabertooth cat (as already mentioned, besides Raikou) and a triceratops fossil pokemon. Bastiodon doesn't count in my books.

A kangaroo pokemon that's more kangaroo-like than Kanghaskhan and Honey Badger would be awesome.

Also, a cerebrus, preferably as an evolution to Houndoom.

I think we have a 3 headed dragon/cerberus thing already. Houndoom would be the one most likely to get a Cerberus evolution but I can kinda see Mightiena getting one. Then again, gamelore says that Eevee's DNA is unstable as hell so its possible for it to get some sort of a Cerberus evolution.

Do we have a elephant pokemon?

Mightyena is a sort of early-route-pokémon and probably won't be getting another evo. (well, Poochyena is the early-route-thing)

Also, yes. We have Phanpy and Donphan. And to some extent Mamoswine, although it's more of a Mammoth of course :3 Maybe there are even more elephant pokémon? Can't remember right now.
 
We do indeed have a three-headed dragon (Hydreigon, not my favorite pokemon personally) but not a cerberus.

Early-route thing aside, I don't think it would make sense for Mightyena to evolve into something resembling a cerberus. Cerberus is a mythological three-headed dog that guards the gates of the underworld, under the control of Hades.

Houndoom is based off of a Hellhound, which is a mythological dog also assigned to guard the entrance to the world of the dead. They're pretty much the same sort of thing, except one has more heads.

Mightyena is just a pokemon with characteristics of wolves and hyenas.

I was thinking with the Lion make it more lion like with the male/female differences,So it's a lioness if it's female. I was thought Cyndaquil more of a porcupine because of it's spikes how they aren't always there but with an Echinda they are.

Other ideas i have:
Dingo
Box Jellyfish
Tasmanian Devils
Possum
Emu
Frilled-neck Lizard
Kookaburra
Lyrebird
Tasmanian Tiger

Going for an aussie theme here haha :P
 
Tiger
Jaguar
Armadillo
Opossum
Wolf (Maybe Mightyena.. But name and appearance hints more to Hyena)
Unicorn
Dolphin
Koala
Fennec (Maybe Eevee..)
Squid
Goat
Kangaroo
Panda


That's all I can think of.
 
Well they have Rapidash and Keldeo for unicorns.

Also, am I the only one who thinks the 2 headed skink looks like a doggy poo?

= Unicorn

= Saola

Unicorns are over done. Rapidash should've been the only one. Keldeo is way pushing it.
 
That Pokemon is pretty obviously a Zebra, imo. It just has a spiky mane to look like thunderbolts because of its typing.
 
Lol those are Zebras, totally. Nothing else.

How is Keldeo a unicorn? Doesn't it have two horns?

It's still more strongly based on the kelpie, a water pony legend, than a unicorn though. The horn is the only thing that makes it somewhat based on a unicorn.
 
How about a fiery Pegasus? This could be an evolved form of Rapidash. It becomes Fire/Flying. Very similar to the Yu-Gi-Oh card Firewing Pegasus, but I still think it would be a great concept. Here's the card for those of you who are unfamiliar:

they could make this little dude into a pokémon..
