>>55249172>There are literally 350000 species of beetles alone. It's just hard to find a unique take on themYou don't necessarily have to just make beetle but monster. You could do a lot with beetles. You could have a Bug/Ghost beetle wrestler with detached arms similar to Hoopa-U. You could do a beetle lamia that has a beetle larva as its lower half, or just a straight up Bug/Dragon beetle lamia.
Or, hell, you could do a Bug psuedo-legendary that's like Wishiwashi where it's actually a hivemind comprised of a bunch of tiny bugs that form a massive monster. You could make it Bug/Psychic since it'd be the Psychic hivemind controlling the whole being, or Bug/Dark like how Spiritomb is an amalgam of spirits and is Ghost/Dark.
