Hey I have an idea. Maybe instead of Dinosaur fossils, we could do Megafauna fossils?
(Or have a region of the game where Megafauna pokemon spawn)
It's pretty Australia unique and there's plenty of cool choice.
Right off the top of my head:
The Giant Ground Sloth is one big cute critter, it even looks like a pokemon already.
Maybe a Ground/Normal with two evolutions?
A small cuter one, with three little nub claws per hand, and then a much larger one with a rack of much bigger claws (Maybe mix it in with the Therizinosaur for the huge claws?)
As well as this, maybe a Bunyip (Which turned out to be a real animal called the Ripper Lizard) pokemon. It's basically a giant Goanna that buried itself near waterways to ambush prey. Maybe a ground/water? Its first evolution could be a regular goanna, though maybe with a sail-tailed basilisk sail, and then the Ripper Lizard could have a low sail across its whole body.
We could call it the Goayip? Or maybe the Burroanna?
You could actually even make a Pseudo-legendary, as it's that in real life, maybe give it a real high level for the evolution (So you really have to stick with Goanna, maybe even a preevolution that's Frill Neck lizard)
Thoughts?
