Well, to answer the very first post, Karanakushi (now confirmed to be Snelios) and its evolution, Toritoidon, are not Lapras related at all. They are their own evolutionary line, and are based off of the sea slug. I know, it's weird that there aren't any Zebra pokémon, but there are lions (Rentorer) and they have a mosquito/bagworm moth (Garmeil, although it is mostly a bagworm moth). They now have honeybees (Mitsuhoney and Beequeen), hedgehogs (Sheimi), and even sea angels (Manaphy and Fione). They have dinosaurs that have control over the space-time continuum (Dialga and Palkia) and an equine being that is the god of all Pokémon (Arseus). They have the weirdest, most unique animals now for the 4th generation, like a Meganuirus, mammoth, and neon tetras. They have butterfly fish, a bipedal wolf, a Pachecephylasaurus, a Chasmasaurus, a monstrous scorpion, a line of penguins, crickets, and a raven. I can't think of anymore right now...
