My computer is sorta running again. I've had the idea to do an amphibian Dragonite for weeks without the the means to execute it. Upon research I've discovered that Dratini looks suspiciously like a salamander tadpole, everything just fits into place. Pretty much the only time in nature a vaguely serpentine creature transforms into a reptilian looking critter.
The way I was looking at it is that Dragonites are very rare in the wild as it reaches maturity at around 55 years old. They can be trained into maturity much faster than they grow in nature. Dragonites are exceptional swimmer and are very strong ambush predators, using their powerful legs or tail to propel themselves at prey. They often are mistaken for taking flight when really they just jump great heights.

The anime version of the dragonite line look like western style dragons while this interpretation takes more from an eastern style.Β

It was a very good idea to represent Dragonite as a salamander, the pre-evolutions coincide with tadpole stages.

I went through most of these. You've done a pretty good job translating the pokemon into something that looks like an actual animal. Excellent, keep it up!

That is one BigΒ axolotl. Damn Mexico in the Pokemon universe must be like AmericaΒ there.

It isn't too strange since the Japanese giant salamander can reach around six feet in length.

This is random, but I had a dream today where I was a underwater Chinese dragon, and I was in this group of other Chinese dragons and we swam around underwater... until Goku came out of nowhere and killed all the other dragons. Yeah, he came out of nowhere.
But my dream was really fun. And I must admit that that wasn't the whole dream. Just before all that happened, I dreamed that I was an eagle with surprisingly clean and shiny feathers. I got to fly around and stuff, but I was being chased by this random dude and his girl friend.
