Sableye is kinda one, but there's always room for more Americana folklore monsters.

Would've been perfect for Unova too unless there's another Murika region but w/e

Bigfoot and Yeti are different creatures though, with completely different lore surrounding them. It's like western dragons vs. eastern dragons.

Exactly. They're both fruit, BUT they're clearly two different things.

A yeti and a bigfoot aren't the same thing. They have superficial similarities, but someone who studies folklore would be able to tell you they're definitely not the same creature. Bigfoots (bigfeet?) are like apples, and yetis are like oranges and ogres are like onions.

Bigfoot and Yeti are both described as large apelike creatures with brown/reddish hair that live in secluded areas.

This is more like comparing a Red Delicious to a Granny Smith.

I've literally never heard Yetis described as any color but white. They live in the Himalayas, and have shaggy white fur.

Bigfoot are North American and dwell in evergreen forests around the US/Canadian border.

You know what, I bet Bigfoot was just some skinny New Yorker seeing a Canadian for the first time. :B

So? I don't know why nerds love to shit on "pop culture" and try to invalidate it based on its popularity. It's popular for a reason.

Who should I trust? Popular fantasy writers like Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett? Or some country bumpkin from bumfuck Bhutan?
