Most Pokemon aren't all that inspired to begin with. At some point you run into kind of limited options to display "cat + fire" or "mouse + electricity" unless you wanna let go of design conventions wholesale
There’s a picture floating around comparing some of the original Pokémon to dragon quest designs from the time.
The concept of “original design” when it comes to a monster or ghost or animal is pretty dumb.
