Lizard type pokemon, and I can't find any examples of this one being shown differently.

I still think that we should just tag pokemon species as just their pokemon species instead of real life ones that look similar.

Denied: because it's been decided that implicating pokemon to other species isn't a good idea. They are their own species. Despite often being inspired by real life species, or a mix of them, the resemblance isn't always very strong. Even when a feral version is similar enough to another real life species, implicating them would cause tagging problems whenever a pokemon was being drawn as a different species or as a human. Pokemon tags are also unique from most other species tags, because they are both a name and a species.
Now, the wikis for them can include a link to the pokemon or real life species that's similar-ish in the "see also" section, as a related tag. But we've found that creating actual implications between them and a real life species that's sorta-similar just doesn't work very well in practice because pokemon tags just function a little differently to other species tags.

There's a few species (braixen, fennekin, ninetales, mightena, ponyta, arcanine, dewott, rattata, pachirisu, and probably a few others) that are currently implicated to species. Are there any current plans to unimplicate them, or is this a "we'll figure it out later, but we're at least not making the problem worse for now" sort of thing?
Edit: Never mind, I found your post in forum #140910.
