Two different names for the same thing. It has a lot of different names. Also, you could probably go with Volcarona or Mothim for a mothman.

On a related note, a sigbin Pokemon would be fucking awesome.

-Gyarados and Milotic (sea serpents)

-Regis trio, Golem and Golurk (golems)

-Zapdos (thunderbird)

-Nemelios (manticora)

abomasnow and craboninable are only named after an abominable snowman in english. Their actual designs have nothing to do with it. Mostly on account of Japan not giving a shit about yeti myths. Abomasnow's just a vaguely anthropomorphic pine tree, and Crabominable is just a yeti crab, and no, before someone's tiny brain stumbles on the word association, the fact that the crab is named after the yeti and the pokemon is based on the crab does not make it based on a yeti.

Sounds like a yeti to me. Seems like you have the tiny brain here if you can't get the joke they were trying to go with.

Hint: real life yeti crabs live near underwater volcanoes. The fact that Crabominable lives on an icy mountain is a reference to... you guessed it, yetis. I'm explaining the joke to you.

it's both a yeti and yeti crab. how that managed to go over your head is beyond me. it was also designed by james turner who is british, so japan not caring about yeti myths doesn't apply

you should check the tcg art, you would see you are completely wrong. the claws make yeti footprints.

Not really many cryptids, you named them all I think. But Rotom is a classic poltergeist, Mismagius is a bit of a witch, and Gyarados is a good sea serpent.

I want to make an /x/ team too.

Mawile is based on the futakuchi-onna and Frosslass being based on the Yukionna of Japanese mythology are pretty good ones. Maybe throw Whiscash who's based on the Japanese catfish Nazamu who causes earthquakes.
