Reminder that Pokémon are a single species with 14 different subspecies based around egg groups.

This is from back when there were regular animals existing alongside Pokemon, and Pokemon were considered mysterious.

Now that regular animals have never existed in the Pokemon world, the idea of Pokemon being understudied is laughable and has been retconned.

They're still mysterious. It's canon that people have no idea how they reproduce or if eggs are even eggs. Masuda also said that the way we classify animals in the real world doesn't work as it does in Pokemon and he implied they are the same species or something along those lines. Given that how Pokémon breeding works, at least as far as we know, it's not a stretch to assume Pokémon are a single species, especially since they can all breed with ditto, or 14 different closely related species divided by egg groups.

Rhydon was one of the best bipedal gen 1 designs (along Charizard and Nidoking). Too bad Rhyperior looks like being from a completely different line.

Even tho it ruined Rhyhorn by being bipedal.
And Rhyperior is based on Rhydon, so it's clearly it who's the problem in this line.
Delete it and you can have a real Evolution for Rhyhorn and a cute pre-evo for Rhyperior (Maybe two and it become a Pseudo-Legendary. Or none and it's a Heatran equivalent)

>based around egg groups
It doesn't say that, and egg groups were added in gen 2 so it's not even true to what they intended in this image.

It's possible the subspecies concept evolved into what we know as egg groups today.

and so possible you're a pretentious liar by saying egg groups are the subspecies
