>>37823753>and if they had a bottlenose dolphin pokemon but it still didnt look quite like a dolphin because of it's pokemon design, people would still keep asking for a dolphin.Case in point: Spritzee.
It's a flamingo. Objectively, actually. Everything about it screams flaming the moment you look at it with a flamingo in mind.
And it turns into a Flamenco dancer. It's a fucking pun. And prominently makes use of its legs now.
Yet people deny it, because it's a stupid blob shape characteristic of cutesy japanese monsters, that didn't emphasize the flamingo legs (even tho it did for the evolution, just not the right way). Plus, they emphasized the beaks and how those resemble those smelling salts things doctors used. People don't associate that with flamingos. Hell I don't think people even know what plague doctor masks are for, or even realize the aroma gimmick of spritzees. The beaks are even the correct flamingo beak.
BUT NO LEGS
THEREFORE NOT FLAMINGO
This is why we need a dolphin pokemon. Kyogre doesn't count. It's not a fucking dolphin until it looks dolphin.
