Pokemon Anatomy

I'd quite like to see those sketches, I remember someone posted one of Bulbasaur earlier in the thread, and it was interesting to see. Let me know if you do sketch any out, I'd very much like to see them.
Here's a question, what is it that causes Solrock and Lunatone to levitate? They don't have wings, or jet propulsion or anything, so what's the deal?

A simple explanation would be that it is connected to their typing as Psychic. As shown with the Abra line, Psychic types have levitating properties. Not to mention both of those Pokemon have the ability Levitate.

Perhaps something relating to the magnetic field of the earth, maybe they repel against it with some sort of field of their own.

EDIT: That or... psychic power

It would be to do with the gravitational field of the earth, not the magnetic field. And gravity cannot ever be repulsive or repelled, it only attracts. Hooray for A2 Physics!! So your psychic power answer is the most logical here, surprisingly. But then that leads to the obvious question - how do psychic pokemon create and utilise their powers?

I just asked the question about psychic types, hehe. But then the whole point of this thread is not to say, "it's ability is levitate", we need to biologically and anatomically explain why they can levitate. I open that one up to you all now.

Unlucky Pokemon anatomies.

Some Pokemon are just unlucky, anatomy wise. What are your thoughts on unlucky Pokemon anatomies?
Personally, I feel sorry for Scyther. Poor thing can't pick anything up...

How do water pokemon manage to use attacks like water gun seemingly indefinitely? Do they have a giant reservoir of water inside their stomach? If so, why aren't they all as big as Wailord?

Perhaps they take in moisture from the air and absorb it?

When you smile you use 17 muscles. And of course there's the muscle contraction and electric pulse to do so. That is why Stunfisk smiles while emitting electricity.

It could perhaps be that they're continuously reacting together elements within their body to create water. Be it Hydrogen and Oxygen, or a Hydroxide (OH) group with Hydrogen. Or maybe they respire at a greater rate. The equation for respiration (in words) is: Glucose + Oxygen --> Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy. In this manner, the water produced could be expelled from the body by the contraction of muscles, the energy produced being used to contract the muscles. Of course, this would mean an EXTREMELY high rate of respiration, but it's just a thought.
