Pug
Water, water everywhere… but not a drop to drink! There is a sheer abundance of pooch Pokemon to choose from, whether you want to go a classic standby like Growlithe or Houndour, or you’d prefer the modern options like Rockruff. Alas, all of them are inferior to this theoretical new creature, because none of them are modelled after pugs.
It’s an undeniable truth that pugs are hot property in 2017, and as such, a pug Pokemon (a Pugemon, if you will) would be a bonafide top seller. Obviously, it wouldn’t be very smart or good in a battle, but it would melt hearts with its vacant stare and keen ability to wear knitted sweaters. Some amongst you might be pointing at Snubbull as filling the pug quota, but don’t kid yourselves, we can aim higher than that.
Additionally, it would give you a chance to see how many creatively bankrupt trainers name it Frank. It may even give the Oranguru called Harambe a run for their money.
