It's amazing how Helicoprion was more related to Chimaeras than they are to actual Sharks!

Another classic! Dragon Quest's take on Chimaeras is so delightfully goofy and a really fun take on combining multiple different sorts of animals. I've always kinda liked the almost reclining pose of their bodies, or maybe it's like a cartoon insect coming in for a sting.

Due to their wings being valued throughout the world and many DQ games for convenient fast travel purposes, it is stated in this monster’s description in Dragon Quest 11 that the Chimaeras has developed a fear of being hunted.

Instead of Legendaries, we have Chimaeras. To get them, u need common Essentures parts and the Chimaera Head Bust, which can be obtained in quests, story, exploration, or epic battles against the Chimaera themselves!

Fun Fact:
Actually it is not a shark. Helicoprion was more closely related to modern chimaeras than sharks.

Todays first Ecological Horror is the Chimaera!

Chimaeras can be dangerous to humans, considering their single venomous spine on their dorsal fin. They mainly feed on bottom-dwelling invertebrates such as crabs, octopi, marine worms, etc.

Fantasy AU GIR!!!!!
A young chimaera and ZIMs "Knightley assistant" ZIM found him trapped in the garden rose bush when he was a pup and he's been by his side ever since (chimaeras in this AU come in all shapes and sizes btw)
