wow. literally ENDLESS thread, huh?
i want to add something. it is infernape. surely it is sun wukong. but sometimes pokemon are mix of a lot of things. i believe it is mix between sun wukong with hanuman. hanuman is hindu diety. hanuman is also white, pretty much like infernape. and they look alike too. if you know the story of "epic ramayana", it even explain the fire type infernape has.
hanuman and sun wukong might originated from a common source...in fact, the Journey to the West is linked to India although it features buddhism rather than hinduism...there is also a hanuman langur (literally named after the hindu god) a monkey which infernpe resembles...infernape also looks like a yellow baboon...

I think a "raptor sabertooth tiger great white and cassiweary frill lizard" would be a chimera.

That's alot of things I don't know anything about. Since I don't have the book (nor do wikipedia have an article) I found this site to help me and maybe other to know what those things are http://www.mythbeasts.com/menu.php?menu=Fearsome+Critters
Going to add them soon.
EDIT: Isn't haxorus some sort of axe-headed hound as both have axe heads and slender bodies. What is a diamond jacket, if I may ask? Flitterick seemed kind of unnesecary as it is just a fast flying squirrel, the Humility just seemed that a fast eagly too. Long gar, from the name just sounds like a long gar?
However, I found the Dingbat, Billdad, Funeral Mountain Terrashot, Goofang interesting
Bare with me but I didn't bother looking up anything after Santer, and just copy-pasted the rest into their right place.
Yeah, it's quite alot of work, and it is still growing. Adding Hanumanwow. literally ENDLESS thread, huh?

I should have seen the mental image I got right now.
But on a little more serious note, Grovyle is debatably a velociraptor and Archen is based on raptors and other small dinosaurs that grew wings. Raikou is a saber tooth. Sharpedo might be a Great White Shark. Hey, even some people say Dodrio is partly cassowarry, but I personaly don't see it. Scrafty might be based on a Frilled lizard.
No shit Sherlock
Seriously, I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry. However obviously the completely obvious needs to be stated. I added rock with some of the pokemon that are clearly based on rocks.
Everything between this and the last update is now added, pluss dachshound which I have somehow not noticed.

The book I have been referencing is called "The Element Encyclopedia of Magical Creatures." However, even that book doesn't describe all of the creatures on that list; there are some that it does expand upon, but about half of them are only mentioned by name with no further information.

I always saw haxorus as a double-bladed halberd or battle axe mixed with a generic lizard design for the 'dragon' part. I don't know of any dinosaur that has tusks that would resemble what that line has.
I always saw Haxorus as some kind of generic double-bladed axe mixed with Scutosaurus. When we see the skull, it looks somewhat like cheek blades.

Jellyfish don't have solid, elongated tentacles, they don't have claw-beaks and they don't have solid, conical heads, all of which the two Tentas have.
They're squid/jellyfish hybrids if you must, but at the very least, it's inaccurate to claim there are no squids in the bestiary.

1) Tentacool and Tentacruel aren't even close to conical; they have bell-shaped heads
2) How do you know how solid the tentacles on the Tentas are?
3) I don't know what you mean by "elongated" in this context, and even if I did I'm sure the Portuguese Man-of-war would fit the bill
4) Tentacool doesn't have a beak
5) Tentacruel's "beak" doesn't even look remotely similar to the one on an octopus or squid.
6) The Tentas can't shoot ink like squids can
7) The Tentas are part Poison-type; squids aren't venomous but jellyfish are
8) Squids have 8 tentacles and 2 much longer arms which are rounded at the end; all of the tentacles on the Tentas are the same length
9) the Tentas don't have suction cups on their tentacles
10) Squids can change colors; the Tentas and jellyfish can't
See? Everything about the Tentas that relates to squids also relates to jellyfish, plus there are many more things that they have in common with jellyfish but not with squid.

Please end this debate. We ALL know the tentas represent a generic medusa-sea-creature and can be any or all of them - just as Doduo/drio is a generic flightless bird that represents any and all of the flightless birds until Gamefreak decides to make one more specific (like Butterfree versus Beautifly).
On topic: Grapes would be nice. Could be an angry grass-type that knows thrash and rage. ;p

yes, it could be the "rape" pokemon

I dont think there is a goat, or in my opinion, a cool duck. Maybe not a beaver but I couldnt imagine that.
