I know that all pokemon are referred to as "mouse pokemon" or "seed pokemon", but that is not their species. Both Pikachu and Rattata are referred to as "Mouse Pokemon", but are they of the same pokemon species? Simply no. A pokemon species is the pokemon they are, not "mouse" or "fox" pokemon.

In a Pokémon's Pokédex information, the species (Japanese: 分類 classification) is a name which identifies the Pokémon based on one of its defining biological characteristics. Most often, the defining traits are part of the Pokémon's physiology, special abilities, or behavior. | |||
This term should not be confused with a Pokémon species, since several different Pokémon can be identified by the same species in the Pokédex, no matter how distantly related. This term should also not be confused with the real world definition of species, since it has nothing to do with which Pokémon are able to breed and produce fertile offspring; in fact, breeding among Pokémon can easily occur between species since it is controlled by egg groups. | |||

popular
Is there really any argument about Pikachu? It IS the most popular and well known Pokemon in the world. Zixor (talk) 08:39, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
A Sheep
Why did an admin just vandalize and protect the page? Zordon123456789mlw7 (talk) 06:00, April 1, 2010 (UTC)
- Because sheep are wooly. (Also, this.) Toomai Glittershine

- Don't you think that was a little too far? I went crazy thinking about it. Also I didn't consider that mostly because I live in a different time zone so it was still march when the post was made. Zordon123456789mlw7 (talk) 06:29, April 2, 2010 (UTC)
Species
I know that all pokemon are referred to as "mouse pokemon" or "seed pokemon", but that is not their species. Both Pikachu and Rattata are referred to as "Mouse Pokemon", but are they of the same pokemon species? Simply no. A pokemon species is the pokemon they are, not "mouse" or "fox" pokemon. As such, Pikachu is a member of the Pikachu species and Rattata is a member of the Rattata species. Omega Tyrant
