always thought a tanuki would make a fantastic flying eeveelution. they've got really nice face markings and they could give it two big bushy tails as a subtle giant ball sack reference.

Quoted By:

eccentric flints would make a nice rock line. they're odd intricately carved maya artefacts containing many profile images of animal and human heads as well as numerous bladed edges. they are of uncertain purpose, far too delicate for any practical use but some are shaped in a way that suggests they were mounted on staffs. the leading theories are that they were ceremonial (the old archeological fuck-if-i-know standby) or that they were practice/display pieces that showed off the skill of the maker.
they'd make an interesting line, they could incorporate features of different animals at different stages.

When SM had its first real trailer I thought Solgaleo and Lunala were supposed to be Barong and Rangda.

Wouldn't doubt that the influence is there, at the very least.

The problem is that the tanuki theme is completely gone in Furret. That's the case in a lot of lines, actually. Like, we have a rattlesnake pokemon in the face of Ekans, but it's unusable and evolves into a completely different snake. Or how Lombre is pretty much a canonical kappa, but evolves into weird fat pineapple thing.

Yeah the first two gens weren't so much focusing on a specific Pokémon's niche people wanted to see. So you get mons with neat, layered designs like Sentret, Mareep, and Wooper that drop their concepts when they evolve.

Kyogre is a dolphin, but not really the bottlenosed kind most people think of when they hear about one.

Passimian fits the second part of it though; they'll probably make mons related to other sports in the near future.
