New ImPokédex - Shinx

It's a shame that Shinx and company are such common Pokémon D/P, considering how they're based on such a mythical creature in the Sphinx. On the other hand, unicorns kinda got a raw deal too.

  1. ... I'm fairly sure it's not a sphinx.
    The name comes from shine and probably lux, because it can make its fur shine with electricity.

    On another note, I never noticed the increasing leg-stripes before.

  2. ...Also on a different note, Squirtle isn't actually a turtle like you suggest. It's from Squirt and Fertile, duh.

  3. Haha, I'm serious though. The only thing it has in common with a sphinx is, well, being a lion.

  4. Yeah, on second thought, the Sphinx didn't even have a mane.

  5. A sphinx Pokémon would probably be pretty cool though. Ground/Psychic maybe?
