Pokémonday voting 38 (10-2-2023) (early)
Added 2023-09-15 11:57:30 +0000 UTC(You're getting this one very early because I need to know the result of the poll in order to work ahead so I can go on holiday. Suggestions post will go up on the regular scheduled date, October 2nd)

Hi, welcome to the thirty-eighth Pokémonday voting post!
Last week's prompt was:
...a Pokémon that roams these grasslands:
This week I got a lot of suggestions of Pokémon that already exist, either as official Pokémon or ones we created ourselves. I suggest double-checking to see if your idea hasn't been done before! Anyways, check below to see the ideas I picked!
And now it's time to reveal last week's winner!
Prompt: Ideas for a Pokémon that disguises itself as a Poké Ball!
Winning idea: An armadillo that rolls up into a Poké Ball shape! (by Panini Cupcake, Aetos & Kenneth Parker)
Runner-ups:
2: An actual mimic with nasty teeth (by Plubcol & LuigiThunder25)
3: A pixie wearing Poké Ball halves as a hat (by Haelerin)
4: A snail that uses Poké Balls as its shells (by John Brito)


I kinda like this fella! I wonder why he's disguised as a Poké Ball though? Maybe he depends on Trainers throwing him to travel? Guess the Pokédex entry (written by one of you) will tell us, hahaha.
Thank you all for your creative ideas and good luck to the ideas in this poll! May the best idea win!
Here's some pictures of the ideas suggested:

Secretary bird

Dalecarlian horse

Yak

Cheetah

Since the secretary bird is actually closely related to raptors like eagles and hawks, making it a fighting type makes a lot more sense given its hunting style
