If we go with the platypus we should do something interesting with its tail
We could do a kappa even though I guess ludicolo is, but he doesn't look much like one
Or we could be dumb and do something like dolphin-garchomp
I just checked that desman thing and it has some pretty neat features. Its weird nose thing could shoot out water or something, if I looked at the picture right.

It doesnt have a beaver like tail, has ducklike, scaly webbed feet, and it's the duck pokemon. It even has the word duck in its name. I dont see how it could be considered a platypus, sans the claws
Looked up what a desman is, thatd be way cooler than a platypus

It has to be a duck, I think the only types of ducks that don't fly are "farm" ducks. anyways...
there has to be some animal thats not a fish, yet lives near/in water...also, before anyone says it, I wouldn't go with a frog, they made so many over they years...just my opinion though...
I'll bite. How is Psyduck in any way a platypus? He has "duck" right in his name. He lacks fur, the tail, the poison barb. He's a duck.

How about a mythological creature, that isn't a fish.

So far all the water starters have been based on real things, but maybe we could make an exception

psyduck is a platypus because of golduck, which has similarities to a platypus and kappa.
farfetch'd was the true duck of gen 1, just throwing that out there.
anyway good luck on this dex and just add in what makes sense, gen V gave a new route for us, take advantage of it

Perhaps we could take the evolution of cetaceans into consideration.
After all, once upon a time dolphins walked on land.

Can't we just make it...float? Swim through the air? After all, it is a video game.

That's an idea. I mean, if you look on Pokémon Battle Revolution most of the Water Pokémon float
3rd form of the ram should look like Pan from Pan's Labyrinth. Just sayin'.

Not the starters. The starters were always these Pokemon that could follow you around side by side, my buddy type of thing. Like Dawn's Piplup and Ash's Pikachu.
Unfortunately SengirDev I don't think the list is ready. Well... I'm not happy with them.

Do you have any ideas then, Koopaul?
These are some ideas:
Crustacean, maybe a crab or lobster
Seal
Sea bird, maybe an albatross or puffin
Isopod
Desman
Platypus
Cetacean
Octopus
Walrus
Sea Lion
Crawfish
Starfish
Polar Bear (can be considered a marine animal, look it up if you don't believe me)
These are all just suggestions
