Animals to Pokemon

[Macawmoses]

A number of animals commonly make Pokemon....you have your snake, your amphibian, your dogs and domestic cats (and those of the psychic variety) but there are some that are missing completely, and would fit in.

For one, I think Pokemon could develop well with the addition of more dinosaurs, Tropius seems to fit in well, but I could imagine a Stegosaurus (a more real one) being devastating. Rampardos and Shieldon are cool, but there are a lot of unexplored dinos.

Tigers definitely need in, though...there are lions...so, why no tigers?

Elephants would be pretty awesome too; the only pachyderm rep is Donphan/Phanphy, and they aren't all that popular.

This will seem weird, too, but I think a Rooster would be badass, much like Miltank.....farm animals rule.

So, which animals do you think need more rep in PKMN?

Hamsters and Flamingos.

I've also always wanted to see a Plant like Grass type/Fire Type.

It would make for an awesome Type combination.  Much better than that Ice/Grass.

We need better rabbits.  Buneary's voice from the dub makes me want to kill someone and Lopunny is for furries.

Raikou is a tiger.

Raikou is a tiger.

An awesome tiger.

I'd like to see a sea urchin. Cloyster is a clam I think.

Platypus. I'm not joking. And Dugtrio/diglet are sad excuses or moles. And some worm pokemon would be cool.

Weedle/Caterpie are worms. Do you mean like an earthworm?

[Macawmoses]

Dunsparce is a worm...right?

[JrDude]

Raikou's a Tiger? I thought he was a legendary dog...

Has a porqupine(SP?) been used? I'd like to see one if there hasn't been one.
More dinos would be cool too.
Maybe mutations of animals (EX: half dog half cat?).
Chicken/Rooster would be cool, even though Torchic/Combusken are kinda like them...
Platypus is also a good idea.
Maybe a bigfoot Pokémon (who has a different fur color when found in a snowy area [stays the same color once caught and won't change]).

Raikou being a DOG is stupid. He looks WAY more like a saber tooth tiger.

Yeah, I mean earth worms.

Werd. Entei & Raikou are much more like large cats, but Suicune is a dog. Which is why I called the Legendary Beasts.
As for an animal that'd make a good pokemon... Idk. They've done the good ones I can think of.

[Lotos]

Turantula
Hornet (Beedrill is a bee)
Mosquito
Cockroach
Termite

[Sgt.Chilly]

I'd also like to see an Armadillo that's a Steel/Ground type.

how about an Opossum?
