>tfw fire starter is a fucking cat and not in the Chinese

serves you right you fucking autists

>>26261418
Lol, you must be one of them denialfags pretending to be a zodiac fag. The bait is too obvious.

It's going to be a tiger

>>26261639
[damage control intensifies]

>Legends relating to the order of the Chinese zodiac often include stories as to why the cat was not included among the twelve. Because the Rat tricked the cat into missing the banquet with the Jade Emperor, the cat was not included and wasn't aware that the banquet was going on and was not given a year, thus began the antipathy between cats and Rats. It is possible domesticated cats had not proliferated through China at the zodiac's induction.

>W-who cares if it's not in the zodiac? I found this one legend that talks about the cat not being included, therefore it counts! R-right guys?

<le JUST man XDXDXDXDXDXD

>>26261418
if a fox can be a dog and a badger a mouse then a cat can be a tiger

>>26261418

fits better than gen 2 at least.

Too bad a fox isn't a dog. Too bad a badger isn't a mouse.

Gee, it's almost like tigers are big cats.

>>26261920
So we're just classifying them by their dex names now?

Because in that case your theory falls apart even more.

>>26262056
Are you pulling something out of nothing?

Yes, you are.

No, but you Zodiacfags are.

Every animal in the Felidae family is a cat.

Backpedaling and goalpost switching.

>Litten

The main legendary is a lion, this one will be a tiger

Possibly Electric if they do dual typings

>>26261418
It's pretty obvious it could evolve into a tiger.

>>26262230
>Charizard isn't a Chinese Dragon
>Foxes aren't Canids
>Fire Mouse isn't a Mouse

Totally not grasping.

>look at the dex classifications, except when it doesn't count
>look only at the unevolved forms, except when it doesn't count
>they're taking "creative license" with the designs, except when they're not
The amount of dogmatic thinking going on is hilarious. You start with the conclusion and work backwards. It doesn't matter how much the pattern you saw before is destroyed, you'll always find some way move the goalposts so that your conclusion always remains true.

>>26262196
I love this cop-out, since it can be used to justify so many things. Water starters are all weapon wielders. Blastoise has cannons, Feraligatr has claws which are another type of weapon, Swampert has giant hands so it's based on another type of hand-to-hand augment, Empoleon's wing looks like a shield, Samurott has a sword, and Greninja has those reverse-grip swords in Smash and also water shurikens.

>>26261418
What the fuck is a Tiger then

>>26263080
Not a kitten.

Even nips differentiate between cats and tigers you nignog.

>>26261418
Nice false flagging

>>26263261
Nice damage control.

Looks like you haven't seen Fruits Basket.

It's painfully obvious that it's going to be a tiger dumbass. Notice the stripes?

>>26263319
It may or may not evolve into a tiger. Hawaii doesn't have tigers, though, and not all striped cats are tigers, so signs are pointing to "probably not".

Honestly, if Fennekin was acceptable as a dog, then Litten being a Tiger is very reasonable

>>26263284
Nice meme

>>26263397
Hawaii also doesn't have bats that shoot moon beams but here we are now.

>>26263397
>Hawaii doesn't have tigers
And the USA doesn't have tapirs yet Musharna is in Unova

>>26263397
Japan doesn't have dinosaurs, either, yet we have shit like Chikorita.

>>26263400
>if Fennekin was acceptable as a dog

How new are you? It was NEVER acceptable to anyone who wasn't a desperate zodiacfag clinging to straws and constantly changing goalposts every step of the way.

>>26263463
But it does have soybeans.

>>26263397
yeah because france has luchadore birds you fucking faggot

>>26263480
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.

>>26263397

It's pattern kinda looks like that of a tiger already

>>26263480
Dogs and foxes are canines
>of, relating to, or resembling a dog or dogs.

>>26262110
I know you're shitposting, but Cats actually share like 98 or 99% of their DNA with Tigers.

Now if Litten was a Hyena you could troll people with that, since most people assume a Hyena is a dog, even though it's in the Cheetah family.

>>26263480
The only one that doesn't fit really is Cyndaquil, and it's Pokedex entry kind of fucks you on that despite it being more of a Shrew/Porcupine that turns into a Wolverine than a Mouse/Rat, regardless of it's Pokedex calling it a Mouse.

Stop this meme.

>>26263480
>>26263598
>>26263636
Aye. I think that overall the main problem with the pattern is Typhlosion being more Mustelidae (weasels) than Rodentia.

But then again, he was the second fire starter, so maybe they hadn't thought about setting up any kind of pattern at that point.
Redardless, once you got a Dragon, Chicken, Monkey, Pig and Dog(-ish) together, and now we're likely getting a Tiger, the pattern is pretty clearly there with just a sore outlier.

>>26263686
It lists Cyndaquil as Fire Mouse, but the evolutions are "Volcano" like how Charizard is "Flame" despite clearly having gone from a lizard to a dragon.
If you wanna call Cyndaquil out as the Rodent when it clearly becomes a wolverine/badger, then you have to accept people pointing out how Litten isn't a tiger yet.

>Owlposters switch and bait
Away with you

>>26263686
Well it's not, I was just saying that how Cyndaquil looks doesn't really make it appear as a Mouse is all.

>>26263652
I don't even care about the zodiac theory, I just want another tiger pokemon

>>26263598
Foxes are not canines. Repeating this a million times in a million threads isn't suddenly going to make it true.

>>26263991
Yes they are. Foxes are part of the Genus Vulpes, whereas Dogs, Wolves, etc. are part of the Genus Canis, both are part of the Family Canidae, otherwise known as Canines.

>>26263991
>>26264088
Rekt

>>26264088
No they're not. Canines are not canidae, canidae is a broad family that consists of dogs, wolves, coyotes, tanukis, etc.

Canines are a SUBFAMILY of canids which includes dogs. Vulpines are ANOTHER subfamily of canids which includes foxes.

Vulpines are also on the opposite end of the spectrum from canines on the branch.

>>26264352
See
>>26264123

>>26264088
You've actually got that wrong. The genus canis is what is otherwise known as canines, not the family canidae.

The split between canines and vulpines occurred 34 million years ago and they're not especially closely related.

>>26261639
/thread

>>26264463
Canidae, Caninae, Canis are all synonymous with Canine, and the only difference between Vulpes and Canis is the fact that Vulpus are smaller and have more flatter skulls.
