Monotremes are a type of mammal! A very strange type, and less related to us than any other type of mammal, but mammals nonetheless and thus more related to us than all non-mammals.

The only non-Eutheria mammals are the marsupials (Metatheria, "changed beasts") and the monotremes meaning... wait for it... "one-hole."😂

Bubbatreme is a water starter based on, of course, a platypus! They are a happy and playful pokemon with a puppy-like personality! They gather water around their neck to protect themselves. 💧💧💧
The name comes from bubble and monotreme ☺

According to the official bios, the Marsupilami is fictional species of monotreme. So here's a take on him where he shares their physical traits. (Such as a beak and webbed paws with spurs on the heels)

Scourge's green coloration was inspired by Ashura and Dr. Starline's entire palette and name are inspired by wechnia (wechnia's actual name being **********, a line of stars) while also being essentially an alternate Finitevus since echidna and platypus are the only monotremes

Words cannot describe how ready I am for it. It’s finally coming home-

also I really wanted the Platypus monster concept to be reused because I loved the idea of 2 magical monsters being based off of monotremes being it and Peckidna.

that echidnas (monotreme order of egg-laying mammals)are named after Echidna, a beast from Greek mythology who was half-woman, half-snake. This is because the animal was perceived to have qualities of both mammals & reptiles. Echidna's closes relatives are platypuses.
