>>30742522Speaking of cool birds that should be Pokemon. Check out the fucking Shrikes.
These adorable, pudgy little birds are extremely predatory and are known to fucking impale the corpses of animals onto branches and other things for territorial purposes and to save them for later consumption and are given the nickname "Butcher Birds" as a result.
These tiny little serial killers even go after things like toads and snakes and are known to viciously stab them to death before decorating the trees with their corpses.
These things would make wicked Dark/Flying types with an assassin theme.
