Not at all. I was hoping that Sharpedo's Mega would extend it to become a full-sized shark, but instead they just gave it a ton of spikes and it looks even worse.

Hopefully they'll give us a cool hammerhead shark Pokemon one day, though.

Yeah, but unfortunately it became Zangoose which is ugly and sucks

>>26671386
My favorite animals are elephants/mammoths/mastodons, hammerhead sharks, and moose (rhino gets an honorable mention)
So there's Mamoswine which I love, but without the trunk it's still not filling that mammoth sized hole in my heart.
Donphan who is amazing in aesthetic, maybe a bit too small, and not quite competitive enough to make any of my teams
Garchomp which is cool and all but not really close to the shark's body style enough for me to consider it a true representation
No moose as of yet, some of the deer are okay I guess
As for rhinoceroses: Nidoking, Rhyhorn and Rhydon (don't fucking mention the third evo) are pretty cool. Nidoking is definitely my favorite but he has so many source animals, that I can't really say he's solely a good adaptation without mentioning, Baragon, gorrillas, porcupines, or rabbits

Garchomp has shark traits, but it doesn't really feel like a full on shark.

It doesn't look that fluffy. And lots of animals have those, too.

>>26671386
My favourite animals are lynx, snails, pigs and cats (I like the whole range of them). The cat pokemon we have are all okay, but Litten reminds me the most of my newest cat, Jane. I would also love a calico because my first cat, Simba, had to be put down a few months ago (16 years).

I don't really like the pig pokemon we have so far. Emboar is probably my favourite out of the ones we do have.

I love Macargo though.

Basically if I could have a calico, lynx, and pig pokemon that is somehow /rock I'd die happy. I'm also glad we have a pokemon based off of ammonites, but I don't really care for it aesthetically speaking.

Same here. I think chances are good we'll get a capybara Pokemon eventually, it's just a matter of if it's in gen 7 or in gen 17.

If the pre-evo is a guinea pig I'd be extra happy, even if regional rodents aren't very useful. But if it knows surf it'd at least make a decent HM slave.

I have to disagree. Spinda is an awful design. And if it's supposed to be based off of a Red Panda, it failed even harder. Spinda's anatomy and behavior do not match that of the Red Panda either. Also, Red Pandas are not bi pedal.

>>26673858
As much as you're right about it not being a red panda, the bipedal thing is a horrible argument. Tapirs, rhinos, rabbits, dogs, cats, beetles and so on aren't bipedal either, yet there are pokémon based on them that are.

I just realized I don't actually have an answer to this question.

>>26674100
>not poison/dragon
You know how these fuckers kill their prey if they survive a chomp?
Research has discovered that the bite of the Komodo dragon delivers a powerful venom which actually thins the blood, increasing blood flow and creating a state of shock in the victim. The sharp, serrated teeth of a komodo dragon are used to open a gaping wound in its prey, enabling the venom to flow easily. It is not the spit that is venomous, and it cannot enter your bloodstream unless delivered via a sharp bite.

>>26679627
That's what they rely on. Their bite force is actually relatively weak, so most prey of decent size survives a chomp.

>>26679627
>Komodo Dragon Venom

A Komodo Dragon's mouth is home to massive colonies of bacteria, which make their bites toxic. Infant Komodo Dragons do not have this bacterial infestation, and gain it from eating from carcasses taken down by an adult with the bacteria. The bacteria is not stable in their ouths, but is restocked every time they kill something with it. In captivity, Komodo Dragons loose the infectious bite since they don't take down prey, they just eat. Many images of Komodo Dragons show them with a slime running from their mouths, which is a combination of drool and bacteria Disneyland.

Is it lazy to say dogs are my favorite animals? They are. To be more specific, I LOVE doberman pinschers. The closest we have is Houndour/Houndoom. Houndour is kinda weird looking, Houndoom is cool though. As for the other dogs, I like them all at least somewhat.

Killer Whales are the best animals, hands down. They're the apex predator of the entire ocean and are majestic af. They fuck around with people in the wild and have near-human intelligence. Gen 7 will be great if we get an orca pokemon. I'd even be happy with a dolphin pokemon or both :^).

Talonflame is literally the fastest fucking thing alive. It divebombs faster than your mom sucks another dick. How is that not good representation.

My favorite animal is the humpback whale, and while Wailord is alright, it being the sole representative of all cetaceans is an unspeakable crime.

Lanturn is a very friendly and not ugly Angler fish.

Samurott was better than I expected. I feel sorry for the SeaOtterfags though.
