Slaking is the closest thing to a gorilla. It's more of a giant sloth with gorilla characteristics though.

I thought Darmanitan pretty much filled the gorilla spot for the most part despite being an orangutan (which is a species of gorilla anyway).

They never did an Okapi as far as I know. Or a Pangolin.

They haven't done a flying sandfish either.

Orangutans are apes, not gorillas o-O;

Oh, so apes and gorillas are not the same. Nevermind then.
RE: Name Any animal that Pokemon never did. - Tellis - 07-30-2012
What, no. Orangutans are apes, and gorillas are apes, but orangutans are not gorillas.

A Pokémon based around gold.

SOLID gold.
Wait, Cofagrigus is kind of gold, isn't he? Hmm...
Let's see, my next suggestion is... difficult to make, there's not a lot left, is there? How about a Chimera? Two animals that don't have a whole lot to do with each other combined into one, and give it two unique types.
RE: Name Any animal that Pokemon never did. - puggsoy - 07-30-2012
A chimera isn't an animal it's a mythical creature so it doesn't count.
Did they ever make a vulture Pokemon though?
RE: Name Any animal that Pokemon never did. - Tellis - 07-30-2012
Yeah, Vullaby and Mandibuzz, from Gen V. And honestly, the idea (or at least the spirit) behind the chimera is present throughout a ton of Pokemon, with mishmashed parts of tons of different species and whatnot.

technically they are real, but different than the mythological one to an extent

As the topic change suggests.
It bugged me since the topics no longer about just animals.
