So hey, we've never talked about the tiger fire starter.

We have the kiwi that has parts of a, well, kiwi fruit, and we have the iguana that'll become a prehistoric reptile (DIBS ON OURANOSAURUS/DIMETRODON).

So, would the tiger have some elements from Hindu/Chinese mythology?

I say we go with the wiki page's thing.
"The Chinese call an able general a "tiger general" and a brave soldier, a "tiger warrior".

In Chinese folk tales, tigers kill evil men and protect good men. Tiger charms are used to keep away disease and evil, and babies are given colourfully embroidered tiger shoes for protection."

Also, it says
"The Chinese system of feng shui (geomancy) requires that a burial site be higher on the right side, the stronger side of the body, so that the White Tiger can guard it; the Azure Dragon guards the left side, the body's weaker side."

We could make the water type a pseudo dragon and keep the theme with both of them.
