How does that relate to my post, like...at all?
Why not prove it, then, instead of making vague references to it?
So, you think it's more likely that Game Freak would need ideas for what to base a Pokemon on, but they could handle being totally original from there? Why would they go to the trouble of looking through forums to find an idea if all they were going to use was the real-life basis? Why would it be easier to look through fan forums and say "Oh, I like this suggestion of a teapot Pokemon" instead of just looking at teapots and saying "I bet I could make a Pokemon out of this"?
First of all and to be clear, when I say people, I'm not thinking of GF as a company doing it or endorsing. I'm speaking about indiduals.
I can't say if it's easier to do one or the other, but there may be an instance where one cannot even come up with a basis for a Pkmn or think about what to be inspired. Picking ypur example, someone could have explored their teapot Pkmn but though that it wans't good, went to the internet and found a better ideia, perhaps both visually and pertaining types.
