Thanks Galar. You've done a very nice job on your list, though I have some suggestions/corrections:
-I would say Persian should be classified as a "cat," like Meowth and the Skitty family. It's named after the Persian type of cat, though it really looks more like a siamese and it's referred to as a "classycat," by the Pokedex. Also, Espeon is a cat. It's based after the nekomata, or "demon cat." While Espeon looks a lot nicer than that, it does have many feline features, and the nekomata's split tail.
-Similarly, Dewgong is sea lion. This is backed up by the Pokedex, and even though Dewgong's name resembles dugong, it's modelled more after the much sleeker sea lion. Though Seel IS a seal and a cute one at that. ^.^ For that matter, Spheal and Sealeo look like sea lions but Walrein is named after/looks like a walrus.
-The Poliwag family should be split up into two sections, but that's getting really nitpicky. Technically, Poliwag, Poliwhirl and Poliwrath are tadpoles, the baby form of frogs. Politoed is the only true frog from the family.
-Pinsir is a stag beetle. This is also Pinsir's species. Speaking of which, Volbeat and Illumise are both listed as 'fireflies' for their species in the video game's Pokedex.
Your pics are sooooooooooooooooo cute!! But your dugong pictures show manatees! ^_^ But i don't know if they are the same thing or not, I dunno. Not to be mean, or anything! ^_^

Yes, dugongs and manatees are very closely related. They're from the same Sirenian order in scientific classification (actually, they're only members of this order besides the extinct sea cow); dugongs are just smaller than manatees. I don't know why they would name Dewgong after this because it's an obviously an sea lion. And I don't think it was a mistake because Dewgong's original English name was going to be "Manaty," or something equally silly looking.
Since I'm discussing marine animals, Pokemon needs an orca/killer whale. Yes, we have Wailmer/Wailord, but they're not the same, and orcas are cute. And other suggestions I have are dolphins (one that really looks like a dolphin, debate as many might on Gorebyss), flamingos, and otters.

I looked them up in the dictionary and I agree, they are very close.
Wailmer and Wailord are...what? Blue whales, Beluga, or Humpback? I think they are Blue. But they should definitely add an Orca/Killer whale! ^_^

I want a hamster Pokemon! That would be sooo gorgeous!! And it has to be Fire Type, because the Fire Type is cool, and there aren't enough of them (in my opinion)
I've made up heaps of Pokemon of my own, among them Peacock, Goat, Eagle and Dolphin Pokemon

I can't believe no one has mentioned that looks like an otter. I mean, just look at it. The long tail and cute short ears. And it's a water type!
As for , I'm thinking the creators were desperate for more pokemon and simply slapped a shell on its tail. But notice how it still stands upright...just like an otter! Muaha! XP

Wow. Now can I point something out to you?
Arcanine. Slap and "e" at the end and you have Arcane. Look the word up.
I'd like to see:
- Flea
- Beaver
- Swordfish(Steel/Water + high Atk + Spd + Water Veil = pokemon Seaking wishes it could be)
- A Gigas-like pokemon (maybe Rock/Fighting type?)
- Emo/Goth Kid-like pokemon (Dark/Psychic typing)
- Witch Doctor Troll-like pokemon (I'm thinking Dark with amazing Sp.Atk and HP with average Def and Sp.Def with low speed + Recover)
- A Succubus-like pokemon
- An EXTREMELY slow moving Electric/Grass-Type(I'm talking base 10 Speed) but extremely high Defenses and HP.
That last one could be a gorilla...or something.
Dude. Nidoking and Nidoqueen are...bunnies. Nidoran Male and Female are bunnies....they evolve into MONSTER BUNNIES!!

Does your Blaziken have large talons?
Some animals that I'd like to see:
Sabertoothed Tiger
Mountain Lion
Basically some more dangerous or predatory-looking feline besides a freakin' housecat like Persian and Skitty
Flounder (sure, Magikarp is useless, but it doesn't swim flat)
Tick
Wasp/Hornet (Beedrill is close, but no cigar)
Scarab Beetle
Ibis or Crane
Jackal (yes I know the Pokemon I take my name from comes close, but still no cigar)
Hippopotamus (yes I dig Egyptian Myth )
Heavy Horse, like a Clydesdale or Percheron and make them Normal type
Some of the more common Dog Breeds like German Shepherd, Mastiff, Labrador and the like
My ex-girlfriend
EDIT: Hey gang, isn't a Rabbit? Why are folks asking for a Rabbit type when there is one?

Ooh, that last one was cold
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Azumarill's species is rabbit something. And Whismur's pretty rabbit-ish too.
But I would still like to see a pokemon based on the Moon Rabbit. ^_^ It should know Pound, so it can pound mochi!
And since people said platypus, I thought, how about an echidna? Or is Sandslash an echidna? I dunno... ^^
Or what about a chicken? Hmm, I'm thinking there's got to be a chicken pokemon already, but I can't think of one. If there's not a chicken yet, there needs to be.

I really want a proper turtle, and not the Squirtle-stand-on-two-legs kinda turtle.
And the Torchic family are chickens, Yumecosmos.

No one gave any thought to smaller animals like ticks, mites, lice, etc. Although those probably won

Well, bugs might freak out little kids, but are you saying Dusclops and Mawile and *shudder* Glalie wouldn't. o.O; Glalie is scary lookin'
Whoops, I'm off topic. Anyway, I'd like to see a tiger or lion, or maybe a zebra. Or how about a weiner dog pokemon? Also, I think a unicorn would be neat!

Rapidash is a unicorn.
Torkoal is a proper turtle.
Psyduck is a platypus.
Raikou is a sabertooth tiger.
I can't agree on Slowpoke being an otter simply because it is kinda tubby while otters are slender. They remind me of hippos because of the teeth and the way their bodies look..until you reach the tail...so i dunno.
I'd like to see:
- a Tomato pokemon
- a ghost/fighting type of some sort(it would be a humanshape pokemon)
- a hydra

Rapidash is a unicorn, Entei and manectric (kinda) are lions.
But can't they make a decent, or at least a close imitation of a scorpion?? (gligar? pleease...)
What about an evolution line of electric birds other than Zapdos? Something like "Rayven" "Volture"... I don't know.

Just a few updates and modifications. My mods are in Red. There you go. BTW, I want a cute little Hamster and Naked Mole Rat pokemon. I have made so many of these that have been mentioned. I have made up at least 1000 pokemon.

AHHHHHHHHHHH *starts flailing about on the floor, all seizure-like*
Armaldo and Anorith aren't scorpions
They're like ancient shrimp or something, if that will help. (read the pokedex)
A cricket pokemon is still needed by the way...

Firstly, Psyduck is far from the platypus, IT'S A DUCK MAN!!!!!!! Is Psyduck a mammal? Does it have a beaver tail? No! The right anwser is duck. Secondly, (I'm not sure if it has been used), how about a humming bird?
