>>38457489As a reference to "metal" music, I believe this is possible. However, I sincerely hope we don't get a Grass/Steel grookeyvolution simply because I don't want to get raped by a rival who picks scorbunny dear lord anything but that. Also, that would imply that Scorbunny is either Fire/Fighting or Fire/Fairy and Sobble is either Water/Fairy or Water/Dragon. It's possible, but dear god please no
>>38457521As far as extinct species go, there are multiple possibilities that would still fit Grookey's real-world references to Macaques. In order from greatest to least:
>Mesopithecus: extinct genus of old world monkey that inhabited Europe and western Asia 6-7 mya. Closely related to Macaques, snub nosed monkeys, and doucs>extinct species of primate which lived about 13 million years ago during the Miocene in what is now Hostalets de Pierola, Catalonia (Spain)>Gigantopithecus: THE absolute unit of all primate species. extinct genus of ape that existed from around 9mya to possibly 100k years ago. Inhabited what is now southeast asia>Australopithecus: What is largely regarded as one of the first actual hominids. They lived from 4-2mya in Africa, where they evolved into the "Homo" GenusThere are MANY extinct primate species that GF can choose from. The most well known of those I have listed are Australopithecus(for obvious reasons) and Gigantopithecus (Because it was the largest primate to ever exist and was also the base for King Louie in the recent Jungle Book adaptation)
For reference, I tried to pack some images into a quick paint canvas.
