>>44517337>The most important difference is the lack of referenceIt's a fawn/nymph, they're nature spirits hence the grass typing. Following past examples by GF you don't need to be more specific than that.
>your pic related>no clear conceptIf you don't see it's a fawn you're simply uncultered. Nobody outside of nipland knows about all the Yōkai pokemon are based on but that doesn't invalidate their designs.
>no reference to real physical traits or behavior of the animal or the plantFawns aren't animals per se, see above. The plant part, also see above, they aren't plants as much as they control plantlife. Delphox isn't made of fire but is still a firetype because it controls fire.
>attention to detail on this aspect betrays artist's perversionThe result is hardly more risqué than some 90's kids shows. I understand that you're gay and don't want media to turn your wife's son heterosexual, I don't agree but I understand.
