As the title suggests, which real-life organisms and objects would you like to see become the basis for Pokémon? What would be their types, attacks, and stats? Evolutions?

I would LOVE to see a Pokémon based on a betta. As the fish are fairly aggressive (which turns into very aggressive with two or more males together), I could imagine the Pokémon being a fighting/water dual-type.

A cheetah would be cool; it could have the highest speed stat of any Pokémon.

A skunk? Giant panda? Kangaroo?
 
A Dolphin, A Squid, A Cell, A Stegosauraus, A Tumbleweed, and a traditional Lion.
 
I'd actually like to see an orca become a pokemon if it hasn't already. XD It'd probably be a Water type, maybe ice type too. It'd most likely have high defence, then a mid attack and speed. Special could be in the middle too, with higher sp. attack then defense.
 
Hm, well, I would like a urbanish rock pokemon. I usually imagine it as a wall pokemon, but it ends up looking too much like a whomp. But whomps are inspired from legend so maybe they could use it.

I kind of want an ant pokemon, I had this entire set up based on titles. Like two common folk are these tiny ants. Females evolve into queens at extremely high levels and male into knights at fairly reasonable levels. Yeah, they looked okay as an idea. Probably sounds a bit strange here, but really no point telling all my ideas.
 
I think that an awesome legendary would be the Kraken. The Kraken is a giant squid in Norse legends. btw, it would be water.
 
Technically most animals show up in one way or another, but I do know what I want to see from my past fan arts:

Polar Bear that was Ice and Steel.
Flying fox that is maybe Plant and Dragon with a flight characteristic. To fit like the animal it would need to be an opposite to Crobat.

A regular Penguin (maybe Emperor Penguin) Over Delibird. It wouldn't be an original type, like Ice and Water, but I think it'd be cool crossed with a torpedo such that it would not use beam or projectile attacks. This would mean that there would need to be ice physical attacks added (outside of Ice punch), but that'd make it more original.

A walking stick That would be something with bug.

Cuddlefish also might be intresting as Psychic and Water type. It could use fisherman tacktics, with a lure coming out of it and the ability to shoot its spear-like tenticles outward. It would be a fast monster, but would have a low special attack

I dunno what else. I'm pretty much satisfied with most monsters after R/S, but it would be nice to have more Jungle themed Monsters and maybe one more desert monster (like a more common weak one). A road runner would be cool.

A swan that can both swim with someone on its back and fly with someone on its back. And a beautiful, graceful bird-of-prey. And a snow owl. And the four Chinese gods (tortoise, dragon, phoenix, tiger). And two humanoid legendary pokemon (Metwo, Deoxys, Lucario) - one female moon-based one and one male sun-based one. And a squid. And a squirrel. And a peacock. And a dove.

Well, Ho-oh was suppose to be the Pheonix from that... And it use to be Lugia as the dragon... but now it seems like its Rayqueza... The god Legendaries are getting confusing now.. However if they introduce a Tiger and Turtle god Legendary that would be cool... but then there's Raiko and what is Groundon and Kyogre suppose to represent mythologically. (though I remember some tales on Ocra). Maybe Groundon could be the turtle, but its the wrong type and characteristic, plus a lot wrong with it.

Actually... what ever happened to that old topic when everyone was trying to figure out what legendaries match to what legends and myths.

I think a flying squirrel would be cool though. I also think the two humanoid legendaries of sun and moon sounds really cool though.

I also think the Snow Owl is cool, but I'd want a peregrine falcon also, though it wouldn't have to be legendary.
 
Yeah, but those four pokemon aren't associated with each other. I'm talking about a quartet that leaves no question.

And I think Ho-oh and Lugia were based on a different legend (something about the Emporor and Empress of China or something). Although I don't really know much about Chinese mythology, someone will have to correct me I'm sure.
 
We need a Dark type Legendary to counter all the Psychics. Look at all the Psychic legends out there. Mewtwo, Mew, Lugia, Celebi, Latias, Latios, Jirachi, and Deoxys.
 
...the only Pokémon to survive a nuclear attack.

I would have suggested an otter Pokémon...but that's already been made. :D

The best I can think of is an evolved form of Arcanine (based on Cerebrus, maybe :D) that gives it a bigger movepool.

And Tropius. Because it's cool.

Poliwrath is a water/fighting type.

I'd like to see one based on a cockroach. They have like 8 brains and they can survive atomic bomb blasts and intense radiation.

Or maybe a waterbear. (Those are microscopic creatures that feed on the juices of moss.) They're awesome! They can live in temperatures as high as 400 degrees and as low as -300 degrees, and can survive 1200 times as much radiation as humans can! The best part is that they can survive without water for 120 YEARS!!!! Talk about invinceable!
 
How about a beaver pokemon? Or a ghost-type snake (snakes are pretty ghost-like, if you think about it. So are cats)
 
I have always wanted a ghost/dragon or a dark/dragon type both preferably non-legendary.
 
I'd like a legendary Normal type, just for irony.

A Ghost/Electric type would also be interesting.

sponge, goat, evolution of Dunsparse, amoeba, and dolphin also have my vote.
