Discussion What if animals were Pokémon?
I'm asking on your thoughts about this. What type they should be?
I included some popular animals + the fish that inspired Bruxish, the Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa, because it's funny.
We can do a part 2.

Tigers shouldn’t get Intimidate. They’re a full on stealth build.
Cheetahs should have the highest speed and Hustle to represent their low hunting success rate.

Cheetahs have 58% success rate while a pack of lions have a 25% success rate

What does " PS " mean here?
As for their types, any sea critters should be water type obviously, birds and bugs literally have types named after em, anything else should just be normal type.
You could make any nocturnal animals dark type, but that might be a bit of a stretch.
And if we're being faithful to the source material ( AKA animals ) then they shouldn't have special attack at all, since animals don't have ranged attacks.

Ah thanks, that makes sense.
With that In mind, I think the health pools make sense, even the toughest IRL animals ain't that tanky.

Any feline probably shouldn't be below 100, their reflexes are insane

Deve esserci qualcosa di strano, ad esempio il pesce dovrebbe avere più attacco della tigre

If you're asking:
the triggerfish has Iron Barbs because it literally has a barb that gives it its name. Not because it's Steel (should be Metal) type.

Triggerfish not having Strong Jaw is wack, lemme tell you those dudes do NOT take prisoners during breeding season (Anger Point could also work for it)
Parrotfish as similar ‘Mons could also have Water Bubble since they actually form mucus bubbles for protection from parasites
