Anorith does look like one but I dislike how the actual animal looks more interesting than the stylized pokémon design. Five eyes and a claw in the tip of the trunk? Would look great, but that's my opinion. The fact is that some pokemon aren't made with only one animal in mind. They mix two related animals (such as in this case, anomalocaris and opabinia) to create one character. So, this means there are few remaining 'pure' animals to base pokemon on.
While typing that, I wondered if stromatolite pokemon can be considered as 'animals'. Either way, a walking rock wth wind-based attacks would be somewhat cool if done right, i think.
