Are there any non bug type Pokemon that are still technically insect-like?

Sep. 2, 2013

Some examples are: Drapion, Flygon, Tyranitar, Dusknoir…This seems really weird, but I’m doing research for a fanfic I’m writing…

There is actually a Pokedex attribute organizing system that includes in one of its categories Pokemon with an insectoid body style.

The non-Bug types listed under this are:

-Krabby-Kingler-Kabuto-Corsola-Lotad-Trapinch-Corphish-Crawdaunt-Shellos-Gastrodon-Drapion-Cressalia

I also think Vibrava and Flygon look a lot like insects.

Granted, I don’t see it in Corsola and Cressalia (maybe it’s because Cressalia kinda has a butterfly look going for it?) Lotad doesn’t look the part, but further research shows it to be likely based off an insect. Krabby, Kingler, Corphish, and Crawdaunt look like crabs/lobsters of course, but I guess you can say crabs and lobsters are pretty similar looking to insects.

There is Gligar, Trapinch and a couple others.If you want to know more try thislink.Some aren’t in the group so check the water groups.
