Tyrantrum didn't live any where near Amaura/Aurorus, so it couldn't prey on them.

Shellder preys on Slowpoke tails.

Speaking of which, Mega Slowbro should have had the mutated Shellder on its tail evolve into Cloyster, if it's even still canonically a Shellder.

I think we also should take into account that all fossil pokemon may not have been alive at the same time. It's like how T Rex lived 65 million years ago and Stegosaurus lived 150 million years ago, and they didn't exist at the same time.

Your average food chain diagram has the prey pointed towards the predators.
>>
>>25956355
That is portrayed as a rivalry.

And while mongoose regularly eat cobras, they actually almost always die when they try to eat vipers.
>>
Obviously it's not confirmed, but I always imagined Pawniard/Bisharp would hunt Bouffalant.

Their dex talks about how Pawniard cling to large prey and weigh them down with wounds while the lead Bisharp deals the final blow in the end. Bouffalant is really the only nearby large animal in Unova that that strategy would seem effective with.

A tad head-cannony, but it's supported by evidence.

I actually thoroughly enjoy imagining ecological elements of pokemon based off of where theyre found in game. Half the reason I love the diversity in Safari zones.
>>
>>25956386
Depending on your definition of "large", Sawsbuck and Zebstrika could also serve as prey.

I like examining niches but the idea of Bisharp eating anything is very strange to me.
>>
>>25956386
It's cool when the less animalistic looking pokemon such as Pawniard and Metagross are still given animal traits.

Drifloon are too weak to steal children, and even then, they aren't eating them.

You'd be more accurate with Hypno, which kidnaps children and eats their dreams.

Did you fail middle school biology?

In food chains, arrows indicate the flow of energy. When a predator eats prey, the energy is transmitted from the prey to the predator.

You've seen nothing of him but that he knows more than you. What makes you think you know more than him, you have zero evidence.

But the other way round I have a proof that he is smarter that you.

Fuck off.

Hydreigon is the apex predator.

Pidgeotto is one of the most famous bird of prey
>>
>>25957918
When you trade them, Karrablast steals Shelmet's shell.

And then apparently learns honor and becomes a knight, while shelmet -disgraced- becomes a ronin/ninja.
So they essentially swap stat distribution, pretending that you never traded pokemon.

The Pokedex says Metagross hunts and eats prey, but what would a robot even eat? Steel and Rock Pokemon?
>>
>>25957223
Its more than likely that Hydreigon's the apex predator of it's area. I've always imagined it to be crocodile-esque, but more active. It will in fact attack anything when actively hunting, and pretty much anything that gets near it, it'll try and eat. Not a social animal, and really only respons with instant aggression.

It's pre-evo's imply that it has a super high metabolism too.

>>25958839
Well Metagross isn't literally a robot, just looks like a mecha tank. Dont know why, but I always imagined it eating flesh.

Why do the dex entries say so little? I wish we had longer entries like in RS and ORAS. It's unfair that only gens 1-3 mons and Hoopa get extended entries.

Not all mongoose are adapted for hunting snakes, and the ones that are are specialized to be resistant to cobra venom. Vipers also strike much faster, and have more potent venom in general; cobra venom is a neurotoxin, while viper venom is a hemotoxin which renders the blood unable to clot and can lead to necrosis.
>>
>>25961709
I'd imagine Skarmory's metal hide would protect it from even a dragon. They're pretty badass
