BlockedA friend of a friend dropped the idea that Hisuian Arcanine is gonna resemble a shishi statue, and as someone with a great affection for those statues I got excited at the prospect. I really it happens

MemberConsidering there were Growlithe statues from a Gen 2 beta dump that looked like said statues, this is very likely.
Bongani
MemberWell, Growlithe/Arcanine are based on shisaa, so it'd make sense they'd be based on the Chinese variant thereof.

BlockedThat's funny, it feels like Game Freak is going back and reworking old, cancelled/shelved ideas
bumblebitch
Memberkinda makes sense for a game meant to take place in the past, huh?
NightLord14
BlockedI mean in general since they did bring back a few old ideas (like reviving that farfetch'd evolution), but that is a good point! I only have one question tho: How do these guys go extinct?
Fr tho, these guys are old Pokémon, and yet they're not anywhere in the modern Pokémon world. I've already started thinking about them like mammoths or aurochs, animals that were once contemporary with human but went extinct for one reason or another
Bongani
MemberIt's possible they're a dodo/great auk situation (i.e. caused by humans).
NightLord14
BlockedThat's a sad thing to think, considering the depth of the connection between humans and Pokémon, both in the past and in the modern day world in the Pokémon universe
