Discuss things that haven't been made into Pokemon.
I'm surprised that after six generations, we still don't have a dolphin, a koala, or a flamingo Pokemon.
EDIT: I just realized that I accidentally posted this in the wrong section. Could someone move it to General Pokemon for me?
Been asking for a chicken for years now, and so far Game Freak's pretended not to hear any of it 
I'd like to see another chicken, even though we already have the Blaziken line, because chickens. Also a "real" phoenix, since Moltres and Ho-oh really didn't end up looking anything like phoenixes. Maybe mountain trolls and pixies and traditional fairies, or something also, that's a whole realm they never really went when creating Pokémon designs.
Also it's about time they start mocking themselves with the man-made Pokémon thing. When do I get to battle with something that looks like a Game Boy with googly eyes?
2 – Dragonite, KavemanPatrat is pretty close to a chipmunk, and there are two squirrels (of which chipmunks are): Pachirisu (literally, "sparking squirrel") and Emolga (a flying squirrel).
Doduo and Dodrio are partially based on ostrichies.

I would like to see prehistoric mammals of some sort as fossils in the coming generations...

Someone mentioned Flygon somewhere and that made me think of a type combination rather than a specific animal. Until recently, Dragon's secondary type representation has been pretty bad (only Flying, Water, Fire, Ground, Steel, Psychic and Ghost until Gen V came along). What about things like Dragon/Fighting and Dragon/Bug and maybe even Dragon/Normal, and maybe a some more variety from Dragon/Grass or Dragon/Steel? With all the myths and legends about dragons that are out and about you'd think they'd be able to do better than slugs and seaweed.
From here:
- Komodo Dragons - THEY BLOODY WELL HAVE THE WORD "DRAGON" IN THEIR NAME. Come on, people. I could see this as pure Dragon, /Grass, /Ground, /Fighting, or if you want to exaggerate their rough skin a bit /Steel. Monitor lizards are similar animals.
- Spitting cobras - Snakes are really awesome animals, and according to most they're pretty scary. Speaking of which, we could use some better snakes than Arbok and Seviper. Dragon/Poison.
- Salamanders - "Salamence" and "Charmander" sounds kind of like they were named after "salamander," but they really don't look the part. Dragon/Water, easy. Beef them up a bit and you have /Dark or /Fighting.
- Mythical Leviathan - supposedly Kyogre and Gyarados are based on this, but I didn't get that until I Google'd it just now. They really could do something a little more obvious. Another Dragon/Water.
Also, most modern movies and things with dragons make them look like armor-plated tanks. It's weird that the only Dragon/Steel they've made (Dialga) looks more like a dinosaur than anything else.
If they ever made Mega Yanmega, they should make that Dragon/Bug, considering Yanma/Yanmega looks like a dragonfly. If not, any other dragonfly Pokemon needs to be Dragon/Bug, or else I'd cry in a corner. And I'd love to see a Pokemon based off of a Komodo dragon, I could see great possibilities design-wise, same goes with snakes.
1 – DragoniteNot my idea, but for what it's worth back before even Black and White were a thing one of my friends drew up a fakemon starter trio that was fire pig (a few years later, we got Tepig) and a grass goat (and a few years after that, we got Gogoat). Don't remember what the water one was.
I'm still observing the noticeable lack of dolphin-ish Pokémon, though, so I'm going to go suggest that. Water/Psychic, I guess, specializes in special attack and special defense.
We need actual Samurai-like pokemon (Oshawatt's final stage isnt really this). Heck we have a ninja pokemon now, so why not a samuari.
Also maybe a robot pokemon? Like go like Porygon was but make actual robomon.
1 – KavemanGalvantula's actually pretty strong, its Compoundeyes Thunder is one of the scariest thints that can happen to a water or flying type. It also has the benefit of being rarely seen, so a lot of people in the higher tiers have a habit of underestimating its destructive powers.
. . . it's just that like 80% of the rest of the fully evolved metagame is even stronger.

2 – Dragonite, PHANTOMxTRAINERI'm thinking of an orca (killer whale), perhaps with moves and abilities similar to a cross between Wailord and Sharpedo.
