What dino Pokemon do you want to see?

Why there's no stegosaur ;(

>>58013761 (OP)
Sceptile is Dilophosaurus

Also, I'd want to see a real raptor since we only got a partial one with the Galar fossils.

Spino would be cool with how much its reconstruction changed over the years. It could evolve from a design more similar to the early "upright liyzard with semicircle on the back" through a "jurassic park 3" midstage and into a final stage based on modern reconstructions with the short legs, eel tail and weird sail shape.

Not a real Spino, but in a world where mammoths are pigs, it's the best we've got.

Imagine a Baxcalibur hunting, sliding under the snow.

With its stubby dragonite-like body, when we could have a proper spinosaurus with a long snout and tail, more fluid motions, generally a body type more interesting than generic gen1 cartoon dino...

>>58013842
Actually, now that we're talking carcharodontosauridae, an acrocanthosaurus would be cool

>Why there's no stegosaur
cuz my funny reference, you get it?

>>58013761 (OP)
Carnotaurus and Parasurolophus would be an ideal pair for me.

>>58013761 (OP)
Kommo-o is no ankylosaur

>>58013781
Based. Also, not sure if this is a hot take but assuming it will be a fossil mon, just make it part water. It's a cool element, it's a perfectly good fit for an aquatic dinosaur, and adding "cool" types to it like dragon or dark is unoriginal at this point.

Perhaps OP is comparing its tail to Stegouros's, but it's true that Pokémon is based on a mythological Hawaiian lizard, and its design reminds me of more modern reconstructions of Iguanadon.

As an additional detail, the mythological animal may or may not be a collective remnant of the memory of a Megalania from the oral tradition of the Maori people.

>Moʻo are often referred to as lizard beings or “dragons” but, according to our oral traditions, moʻo are more like shapeshifters. In some tales, one may find the abode of the moʻo near a body of water. In our moʻolelo, our stories, most moʻo are female deities.

>They take on the form of a beautiful woman who takes a male a companion as a lover or as a meal. In both cases, the man ends up dead.

>Moʻo deities are benevolent to those families who revere them as ʻaumakua. In return, the moʻo deity sees to the succession of their moʻokūʻauhau, or genealogy. If they guard a fish pond, they see to its harvest and that its waters are clear and nurturing.

Sounds like Salazzle may also be based on this

I love this version, it mixes elements of flute and ocarina with the dinosaur's resonating chamber.

Saved, nice art.

>>58013842
Good image, Baxcalibur is one of my all-time favorite designs and has an awesome background.

I knew it, that's why its mouth didn't look like a Komodo dragon, even the pose is similar to an iguanodon

I wished she looked that cool ingame

>>58014430
Honest question, would it be very difficult to animate those snowy areas? Like if the dragon were swimming in the snow and only its fin was visible occasionally?

>>58014430
>>58014453
NTA but it probably would have been. In both the desert and the snow, you only see Pokemon that pop up, Orthworm and Greavard respectively. I don't recall any that move along under the surface. Garchomp is a sand shark but instead of having it similarly swimming in the sand they have it just flying over the Area Zero ridges.

Give early bird

Kommo-o, bro. It's in the name
