I tried to come up with a way to write it on the page, but it's all in codes and I don't want to mess up the page. Somebody has to do this because this is clearly a problem.

== Am I the only one who can't really see the resemblance to theropod dinosaurs? == | |||
The origin section claims that Groudon might be based on a Tyrannosaurus rex but besides a vague similarity with regards to the shape of Groudon's skull, I can't really see anything else that points to Groudon being based on T. rex let alone any other theropod dinosaur. The legs are wrong, the neck is too thick, the tail looks NOTHING like any theropod dinosaur's tail, and don't get me started on those arms... If anything I actually think it bears a slightly closer resemblance to ancient bipedal crocodilians like {{wp|Carnufex}}, obviously, Groudon isn't based on that particular species as it was only discovered in 2015 but I do believe there were other ancient members of the crocodile family discovered before Ruby and Sapphire were developed that could have inspired its body shape. | |||
