Kung Fu Ferret
The Usurper
Speaking of various mythical creatures, Ammit the Devourer could make a very good Pokemon. Part crocodile, part lion, part hippo.

Pokémon based on periodic elements.

I’d love to see a lionfish Pokémon. Something that looks pretty to look at but dangerous to tough. Also would love to see something based on the sea snake.

What about a Pokemon that disguises itself as a sandwich!

A fossil based on the Entelodont would be very interesting. A predatory ancestor of modern pigs, it's just squealing to be made into a Pokémon!

Sabre-toothed tiger, perhaps?

Somebody in another thread suggested a platypus. I expanded on this and suggested a water/fighting platypus with poison point. Could be fun.
Also, if some of the stirrings I've heard are true about a "Canada-esque locale", a proper moose would be in order. Maybe grass/normal with the sticky ability that prevents item knock off?

There are a lot of periodic elements to pick, like sulfur and mercury. But a lot that no-one would care for, like yttrium. FYI, sulfur and mercury are instant choices for Poison type. Poison/Steel for a mercury-based Pokemon, Poison/Rock for a sulfur-based Pokemon
Fomantis and Lurantis?
Raikou. (I'm in the crowd of they're cats, not dogs.)

I want a Water/Ice platypus that has the males being able to learn Poison attacks through level up and TMs while female learn more Psychic moves annd Soft Boiled to correlate with their real life counterparts. The name I came up with is Platyce. (Pronounced as Plat-Ice)

While we've had Pokemon based on bats before, we've never had a Pokemon truly based on a bat pup. I'd like that as the Fire starter in the G8 games, it would lack the secondary Flying-type to start, but by the time it fully evolves (the adult bat stage), it has it.

Technically they aren't based on leaf or stick insects, but I see what you mean. I believe there's a species of snake that pretends to be a more poisonous snake, that'd be a good Dark type

More common elements should of course be the priority. But after those, there could be Pokémon based on less common ones. The Pokémon would be cryptic and hard to figure out, but that's what could make them cool.
As for some possible well-known elements:
- Lead (Steel/Poison)
- Uranium (Poison)
- Carbon (Steel/Rock)
- Oxygen (Flying)
- Hydrogen (Water/Flying)

But how to deal with a Pokemon you can't defeat?
