<p>Almost all Pokemon based on animal, that we're familiar with, or even animal that we doesn't know before.</p>

<p>Many of them are combined from two species at once, like Eevee's evolution that have some characteristic of Canidae and Felidae, so I put it on one of the family.</p>

@SamHendriks yeah I know, just like I said, Mudkip and Whooper are based on more than one animal. Mudkip based on mudskipper but also have some trait with salamander and axolotl because it's gills, and Whooper also true based on axolotl but also salamander moreover, Quagsire, Whooper's evolution is based on giant salamander

Can you also mention which Pokemon is based on this animal? As it is, it's just a big list of animals so it's hard to relate it back to Pokemon.

<p>I have been thinking about this question for a while now. Since many Pokemon  are based around animals, which animals are Pokemon based on? I ask for the family of the animals, such as dogs, cats, mice and so on. The complete definition is in <a href="http://a-z-animals.com/reference/animal-classification/" rel="nofollow">this link</a>.</p>

<p><strong>I would like a complete list if possible.</strong></p>

note for future readers, my comment above was made before the edit, and the original question asked about what animal that doesn't have a Pokemon version of it, hence, my comment. But since the OP decide to change the question, my comment becomes obsolete, however, I decide to keep it because it has an interesting article about some animals that haven't been made into Pokémon.

Almost all Pokemon based on animal, that we're familiar with, or even animal that we doesn't know before.

Many of them are combined from two species at once, like Eevee's evolution that have some characteristic of Canidae and Felidae, so I put it on one of the family.

> **username_4** (2016-08-30): mudkip is a mudskipper while whooper is based on a axolotl  
> **username_2** (2016-08-31): @SamHendriks yeah I know, just like I said, Mudkip and Whooper are based on more than one animal. Mudkip based on mudskipper but also have some trait with salamander and axolotl because it's gills, and Whooper also true based on axolotl but also salamander moreover, Quagsire, Whooper's evolution is based on giant salamander
