What real life animal would you like to have a pokemon counterpart?

It occurred to me today just how much I would love a Beluga Pokemon with Water/Ice typing.

Dolphin - Water or Water/Ice
Peacock - Normal/Flying or Psychic/Flying
A three stage evolution line: Budgerigar -> Parrot/Parakeet -> Macaw/Cockatoo - Grass/Flying
Three stage evolution line: Quail -> Grouse -> Capercaillie - Normal/Flying
Great White Shark - A proper looking shark, not Sharpedo which looks like it's been cut in half.
Bigfoot/Sasquatch - Normal/Grass or Normal/Dark
Velociraptor - Rock/Dark
Barn Owl - Normal/Flying or Psychic/Flying
Flamingo - Water/Flying
Toucan - Grass/Flying
A better giraffe Pokemon than Girafarig
Hyena - Dark. I know Poochyena and Mightyena have Hyena in their names but they look nothing like hyenas.
Chupacabra - Dark
Tiger - Not sure about type but as a sort of counterpart to Litleo and Pyroar.

Heads up Arcanine and Growlithe kind of are a counterpart to Litleo and Pyroar but still a proper tiger Pokemon would be appreciated instead of a Ligerdog (cause Arcanine and Growlithe have a tiger pelt and a lion mane and a dogs body).

A Fire/Ground Meekrat with Adaptability would be nice

A lot of this reminds me of the Pokemon designs in the fangame Pokemon Solar Light & Lunar Dark. One of which happened to be a peacock which was a Normal/Flying evolving into a Psychic/Flying. There was also a dolphin Pokemon, a seaweed, a surfer, a Fighting-type kangaroo, an Egyptian mummy, a Lapras-like one with an island theme, a Mermaid with gender-based evolution, and a Grass/Flying bird Pokemon.

Speaking of which, I do want a Fairy/Flying flamingo. Spritzee was a missed opportunity.

As said above, i really do want a somewhat fighting type kangaroo pokemon - Kangaskhan not really counting in the sense.

Kangaroo

Type: Ground/Fighting

Why? I'm from Australia and the lack of Australian animals used in Pokemon games has genuinely annoyed me for a long time. It could be the regional fighting Pokemon or something, and you can have branched evolution since red and grey kangaroos are quite different from each other.

I pretty much have the one I want, which is a Houndoom. I love doberman dogs, so I would definitely choose to have one.

 

[Fen-Fen]

A dolphin like Pokemon. Dolphins are pretty cool animals and could be potentially good Pokemon design.

We don't even have any actual wolf Pokémon. :c
