On one hand it doesn't make sense that these pokemon aren't related to these other pokemon, but on the other hand, it makes complete sense. After all, it's not like there's just the one species of cactus, or bovine in the real world.

>>15830443 I like the idea that because Unova is considered to be a long way away (maybe the other side of the world) from the other regions it means that some species have developed to be similar but not identical to the ones we're used to.

How about the fact that Maractus looks nothing like Cacnea/Cacturne (beyond the obvious and necessary cacti similarities) and the fact that, I dunno, they're not fucking related?
>The eye is pretty much literally an Unown. Not only that but it has the same concept, being based on ancient markings Nazca lines =/= the alphabet. The concepts are actually very different, so naturally the Pokemon should be different. One can infer that marking-based Pokemon might have the eye thing going on, but really, there is no need for the alphabet Pokemon to be related to the fucking condor Nazca line.
>They are both pink heart-shaped fish. They have almost exactly the same concept, Alomomola just gains design aspects that take the concept further. This one I'll give you, but honestly, it's not that big a deal for a few reasons. First, the "hand" thing is such a huge part of Alomaloma's design that it not being present in its prevo's would be incredibly jarring. And second, it's just not that big a god damn deal for two Pokemon to have similar concepts. Go look at real fish for a minute. Should nature have made all similar fish into one species?
>There have been bigger stretches. Not only that but they have almost the exact body shape and colouring. I'd be more inclined to believe this being an alt evo from a potential Miltank/Tauros prevo. They have a similar body shape/coloring because they're both based off of fucking bovines. In terms of actual design, they actually look really freaking different.
And again, just because something has a similar real world basis does not mean that they should all be related. Variety is a good thing, forcing all Pokemon to be related just because they look kind of similar or have the same origin is not.

Sigilyph probably has a relation to the Unown. It's subtlety, they don't have to flat out tell you the thing with a fucking unown on it is related to the Unown.

Remoraid:
Teppouo may be a combination of 鉄砲 teppō (gun, as in water gun) and 魚 uo (fish). 鉄砲魚 teppōuo is also the Japanese name for the archerfish.
In english, obviously it can be remora + raid or also an allusion to remington and raids. It's a water gun themed pokemon.
As for OcTILLERY that one should be more obvious. He's heavy artillery. He's named as a tank in japanese, and his signature move is firing a heavy cannon or bazooka at the enemy.
So yeah, they are legit gun themed, that's not brainwash bs.
