So is it an armadillo or a hedgehog?
Yes.
No.
Maybe.
It's nothing like an armadillo.

armadillos don't have quills
there's also no 'armor' covering the face of the pokemon like how armadillos do
probably just based off a hedgehog + shaped spherically so they could slap on the steel type as it looks like a morning star
>pikaclone hedgehog
I'm naming mine Chris.

Hedgehog + Kangaroo Rat
People seem to forget Pokemon can be based on multiple animals

This is evidence that even Gamefreak regrets the very existence of the Shitpin line.

Chespin isn't a hedgehog
pachirusu's overweight brother/sister/cousin/whatever
Ryuku Spiny Rat
>>26918396
Can you repeat that question?
Striped Tenrec
It's an American Pikachu subspecies
porcupine
>>26918416
What about Cyndaquil and Shaymin?
>>26918476
Yes it is. The Chespin line are based on hedgehogs.
It's pretty clearly a hedgehog you imbecile
>>26918476
>Harimaron
>Not based on a Harinezumi
>>26919461
no it isnt
>>26919508
Harinezumi is synonymous with orcupine as well. The claws and tail of Chespin are from porcupines, whereas hedgehogs are distinguished by being cute and fluffy more like shaymin and this one. Though I'm sure there's also aspects of hedgehogs in the line as well, especially Quilladin. Doesn't change that there were was at least one hedgehog for sure previously, and it was also grass type, so the logic put forth doesn't make sense that this is evidence that Gamefreak regrets Chespin
>>26918577
hedgehog
>>26919563
The japanese word for Porcupine is Yamaarashi. Harinezumi means Hedgehog.
>hedgehogs are cute and fluffy
Hedgehogs' backs are completely covered in quills.
>Game Freak isn't allowed to make two pokemon based on the same animal
>>26919661
That is one word, but harinezumi applies to both as well. Yama arashi is much less common. Besides that "hari" is pretty much literally just spike so even if it weren't based on a porcupine based on its features, it could just have spike in its name.
I didn't mean LITERALLY cute and fluffy. You are dumb if you think that was the case. And I don't know where you got that I was implying Gamefreak isn't allowed to make more than one Pokemon based on the same kind of animal.
>>26919776
Misread your post, I thought you were the one who said Game Freak regrets Chespin, but you were arguing against that.
That said, Harinezumi almost always refers to Hedgehogs rather than porcupines. Try googling ハリネズミ and see how many hedgehogs you get vs porcupines.
It is true that Chespin's tail is longer than what a hedgehog has, but then again it looks nothing like a porcupine tail either. Chespin doesn't even have claws.
Just because it's not round doesn't mean it isn't a hedgehog. Sonic isn't round either.
>>26917709
Hedgehog.
