I don't know where to put this, so I'll put it here. If Animals were pokemon, what abilities, types and moves would they have?
 
I know virtually nothing about Pokémon, but I guess animals would just have exaggerated powers of their existing powers eg. snow leopard long jumping
 
Some already are:

I think about this all the time lmao its such a fun concept. I've even gotten halfway through writing ''pokedex"es (encyclopedias I guess) of what animals would have what types in a North American region, African region, what can evolve into what, etc.

It's quite fun to assign yourself "teams" as well. Like I'd have a Nile crocodile (Water/dragon), Scottish wildcat (dark), Red-tailed hawk (fire/flying), etc etc
 
I'll start with some animals and their possible typings.
Red Kangaroo (Fighting/Ground)
Electric Eel (Water/Electric)
Polar Bear (Water/Ice)
Giant Panda (Grass/Fighting?)
American Crow (Dark/Flying)
Komodo Dragon (Dragon/Poison)
Mantis Shrimp (Water/Fighting)
These are just some of the obvious ones. I'm not good at creating moves and abilities.:(
 
I just made a list of a few marsupials and what I would type them as: I had red kangaroo as fire/fighting, but I could see ground as well! I would say Giant Panda would be grass/psychic, or just grass

I'm trying to place a type for an African elephant, but I can't really place one (Ground/rock? Rock/steel? Water? Grass?)

Honey Badger - Electric
African Lion - Fire (Fire/dark? Fire/electric?)
Bengal Tiger - Fire/Dark
Cheetah - Electric
Orangutan - Psychic
Chimpanzee - Dark/psychic or dark/fighting (maybe it could vary for male/female chimps)
Gorilla - Fighting
Cassowary - Dragon/fighting
 
I would likely use Okapi (Grass), Black Footed Cat (Rock/Dark), Honey Badger (Dark/Fairy?), Red River Hog (Water/Electric), and Trumpeter Hornbill (Normal/Flying)
 
If I had to make myself a team (this is really fun to do actually) I'd say:

Scottish Wildcat - Dark
-Crunch
-Hyper-fang
-Crush Claw
-Night Slash

African Elephant - Grass/Rock
-Woodhammer
-Mega Drain
-Earthquake
-Ancient Power

Bengal Tiger - Fire
-Fire Fang
-Flare Blitz
-Flamethrower
-Snarl

Eastern Gorilla - Fighting
-Seismic Toss
-Submission
-Dynamic Punch
-Superpower

BUT if this were actually like the games and I could only catch stuff that's like, within a walking distance/I've seen in the wild/my pets already, I'd go:

Bearded Dragon - Ground/Dragon
Schnoodle Dog - Normal/Fairy
European Badger - Dark/Ground
Common Buzzard - Flying
Roe Deer - Grass
Grey Heron - Water/Flying
