What Animal/Item do you want a new pokemon to be based off ?

There are a lot of pokemon designs that are based of something such as how pikachu is based on a mouse and Growlithe as a puppy sometimes on my free time I like to combine a species of animal/insects are determine which pokemon it has the most similarities with.

Two days ago I looked at the Tenrec which is found in Madagascar, Africa kinda looks like a porcupine whats cool about this is that its the only mammal that uses stridulation to make sound like how crickets make noise rubbing their legs together. I looked at its appearance and thought of it has Heliolisk since of a similar color pattern also made me remember how people theory-ed a new type called Sound Type.
What pokemon do you think the Tenrec has the most connections with ? :)

A mermaid/merman pokemon would be cool, maybe water versions of thundurus and tornadus :D
Nice idea Vaporeon kinda looks like a mermaid some people even confuse it as a mermaid according to a pokedex entry. do you mean a pokemon based off a mermaid/merman that looks human like such as pkmn like mr.mime if that was an actual pokemon am sure it will be very popular with a good design especially :)

What about having a new type altogether, since we have fairy types why not make a demon type? It would make the game a lot more interesting imo.

I think a Demon type is very unlikely to happen seeing as we already have the Dark type. :/ What I would like to ser is an Air type, for pokemon tjat are'nt flying but still deal with the element of air. I am surprised that is'nt in the game already since they have the other elements.

Today I looked at Pidgey and how its based off the Sparrow they look very similar and have similar characteristics while hunting for food there behavior closely matches one another using their claws to move dirt in search of worms and other insects. :)

It could be interesting if we get to see humanoid like pokemon similar to Gardevoir and Gallade but with unhuman like features such as wings or horns

Yeah that would been nice pokemon designers use a process called humanfication or personification too make animation/designs human like to make it more appealing for the viewers and help make connections such as finding nemo and how they gave Nemo big eyes to express emotions and such :)

komodo dragon for sureeeee

Defiantly am glad you commented that Komodo dragons have a lot of inspiration for a pokemon to be based of it I mean just look at it :D

True there are pokemon such as Fearaligatr who may possibly be based off a Komodo Dragon but when I imagine a Pokemon based off a Komodo dragon I think of it more as having the Dragon and Poison typing, my reasoning is because Komodo dragon's have venomous glands and a horrible odor they carry bacteria in their mouth and its extremely hazardous and corrosive if they bite so a poison and dragon typing makes sense :]

You have the fact right, and it would be a interesting pokemon but what would its ability be exactly? Since poison touch would be out of the question as the komodo dragon's venom gland located in the same location as a venomous snakes.

Thank You am enjoying this conversation as for an ability I would choose to make a brand new ability to fit the pokemon and the Komodo Dragon's behavior but if I had to choose from existing abilities that would make sense I would probably choose shed skin because Komodo Dragons are reptiles and they shed their skin frequently throughout a week however this would be a horrible ability on this competitive wise.
