I don't understand how we haven't gotten a lot of animals yet that have particular tropes attached to them:

Fighting type kangaroo with boxing gloves
Grass/Flying type bird with leaves as feathers
Steel type pangolin with metal plates as its body armor
Ghost type opossum that "plays dead"
Water/Psychic type dolphin or orca due to intelligence (if i must say so, a water/psychic would make a brilliant starter final evolution)
Fairy/Ground type jackalope for mythical desert origins
Grass type koala that eats its hair which is really eucalyptus leaves
Poison type platypus for its widely known poisonous claw in the real world
Ghost/Normal type black cat for bad luck yet being a household animal
SOME KIND OF Fire/Flying Gryphon because those are very well known mythical animals
Fire/Poison Manticore because of the utter disappointment that was Pyroar, and the type has not been done yet

And I agree Matleo, I want a proper Bug/Fighting praying mantis (why game freak has't yet I'll never know...)
 
bug/dark or bug/ghost black spider
poison/water platypus
electric/poison jellicent
bug/water mosquito
ghost/flying raven
fairy daschund or teckel dog. It can be more longer than the real ones, with a spring-like body.
fighting chess piece
flying origami crane



ice/water wolf as a starter
poison/fire snake as a starter
fire/fairy jackelop as a stater
 
A tornado like pokemon which looks like a tornado, it is pure Flying type.
A black hole like pokemon, looks like a black hole and is a Dark type.
A Komondo dragon that is Dragon type.
 
Since I'm such a sucker for extinct creatures, I am a bit disappointed that the following species aren't properly represented as Pokemon.

(note: Wikipedia is your friend!)

Liopleurodon
Elasmotherium
Parasaurolophus
Smilodon
Woolly Mammoth
Thylacine
Dimetrodon
Dodo
Irish Elk
Terror Bird
Psittacosaurus
Leptictidium
Stegosaurus
Velociraptor
Carnotaurus

I'd like to see wolf and tiger Pokemon sometime, showing at least some clear inspiration from the real life animals that isn't overshadowed by something else (yes, Manectric is based on a type of wolf but that's secondary to its lightning theming)

(and for the record, the plural of "motif" is just "motifs"....)

hope for more kinds o praying mantis one with fighting and one maybe with ghost and maybe one fairy? diffrent kinds. Like Scizor could have a mega bug/dragon.

Psychic/Poison basilisk. Toxic and Venoshock + status + Hex user, very defensive and mediocre special attack (the status move boosts would make it hit harder then, but it wouldn't normally die from one hit like most venoshock users do).
Ice/Dark horse with four legs but those legs change depending the weather (or enviroment?) - based on Sleipnir but different approach with the "eight legs". The legs altering form would alter the horse's secondary type!
Fighting/steel fighter robot, much like Lucario's typing and Golurk combined, but this would have Levitate.
Normal/ghost apparition, based on shadow people.

bug/water mosquito

...With 1 HP and Wonder Guard, this would be like equal to real life Mosquito. XD Imho it should evolve into a Pokemon based on horse-fly or deer fly, depending if offensive or defensive at some level (just like Hitmons evolve).
 
I think we really need a good bug type legendary. Some kind of giant millipede thing.
I'd also love to see some kind of megalodon from the fossils. There'd need to be something to set it apart from Sharpedo though...
A cute little drake like thing would be pretty cool too.

... Isn't Mightyena an obvious wolf with no overshadowing traits?
 
More musical/instrumental themed Pokemon would always make the music-major part of me happy.

Maybe a goat or other large-horned mammal with the horns reversed (so like the bell of the horn faces outward)

(Mega chimecho plzthnxs)

Other than that's there's a giant list of animals that could be used. Obvious ones like wolf, dolphin, koala, etc. people have covered those. But what about some different kinds of animals, like those freaky worm things that live in immense heat and pressure by undersea volcanoes? Maybe that ones a stretch. But there are plenty of lesser-known creatures that would make awesome Pokemon. Lemur, capibara, list goes on.

Not really, Mightyena's traits are slightly more indicative of the spotted hyena, especially with its name (even its Japanese name) ending in -yena. (To be fair, wolves are also pack animals known to pursue prey over distances, so the Mightyena family may be an amalgamation of both, like with the Luxray family being ambiguously lion and not explicitly lion.)
 
How about a living paradox legendary Pokémon parodying Lovecraft-like abominations? It could be a pure Normal-type Pokémon with one exception: it is unable to learn any kind of Normal-type moves, even though TMs. It could have a very strong desire to be a normal Pokémon even though it can't be, which is reflected in its type. However, its inability to achieve that goal is manifested though the complete absence of Normal-type moves from its roster.
 
a dragon/fairy dog but with fur coat? Never Ending Story

other motive Berserking(on berserker based)
(legendary or pseudolegendary, fighting/fairy, ability: Invulnerable: pokemon is immune to its own types and the types(if dual) of its target.
or Berserker: Pokemon can't faint till it uses once every move in moveslot(4 turns))

-electric/flying falcon faster then zapdos, something to counter Talonflame.

- a game card based humanoid pokemon, made of deck of regular cards, could be normal/fairy (like a soldier in Alice in Wondeland or a card tower)

-ice/poison Spur-winged goose.

- a new hyena normal/steel with strong jaw.
(or mega Mightyena steel/dark with Strong Jaw)
