Gallade (SciiFii)

A gallade (Neoceratocephalus gallada) is a species of mammal and the only living member of the family, Gallaidae, most closely related to hyenas, civets, and mongooses, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii due to demand for real life Pokémon species. Gallades are common household pets throughout the world, however, they have established feral breeding populations throughout southeastern United States, California, China, and Japan, but there are no known impact the gallades have to the ecosystems of both areas they live in. Gallades are tall mammals, growing to be about 6 (1.8 meters) feet tall (not including the head crest) on average and weigh about 150 pounds on average. Unlike most of its relatives, the gallades are completely specialized at walking on their back legs, with their bodies being adapted to their bipedal locomotion, being very humanoid in posture and appearance. Gallades are omnivorous and can feed on just about every known edible food available, even pet food, without any negative side effects, unlike humans. The gallade is a nocturnal animal in the wild, most likely to avoid competition for food from bears, humans, and other large omnivores, using its large eyes and whiskers to find its way around in the dark. The gallades are solitary animals that usually live alone throughout most of their lives, but during breeding seasons, males challenge other males, using their green sword-like keratin on their elbows and red spines on their chests for fighting and tall, light green head crests to intimidate rival males. Both genders have white spikes in front of their small mongoose-like ears, presumably for protecting their ears from being bitten off by predators. The female gallades are almost identical to females, but they lack the head crests of males. They are often mistaken for male forms of gardevoirs due to the similar green and white colorations and, in North America, being known to live peacefully alongside their avian counterparts. The conservation status of the gallade in the wild is Least Concern due to its wide range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
