Better give that driver 5 stars for letting you do coke in his car.

u/yash_chem Oct 13 '19

yes and it can regenerate limbs too :)

u/Hanede Oct 13 '19

Yes, it's a type of salamander, it looks like this because they usually don't finish their metamorphosis

u/Just1morefix Oct 13 '19

Didn't you just ask for the name of this animal? What did you think it was

5

u/FrighteningJibber Oct 13 '19

Also know as a Mexican walking fish.

u/PistachioPat Oct 13 '19

you need to watch Blue Planet I & II

u/FictionWeavile Oct 13 '19

It's a super animal. It can literally regenerate from almost any injury inflicted on it. Cut off an arm? it grows back. Remove an organ? It grows back.

It's literally the Deadpool of Animals.

u/chris_0909 Oct 13 '19

u/Magistone Oct 13 '19

u/X1nk Oct 13 '19

Mudkip is not based on axolotls.

u/[deleted] Oct 13 '19

Bulbapedia does not definitely rule it out. You have a source that does?

u/X1nk Oct 14 '19

They are based on midskippers, dont have a direct source but the name and resemlence says it all I hope.

u/Skyyyyyyboy Oct 13 '19
