*[[File:Body14.png|24px]] '''Pokémon with an insectoid body''': This body shape appears to be add legs and/or feet to [[File:Body08.png|16px]], in addition to other details. Some noteworthy characteristics are that Pokémon within this group tend to have 6-8 legs, segmented bodies, or both. It is also entirely composed of Pokémon based on arthropods. | *[[File:Body14.png|24px]] '''Pokémon with an insectoid body''': This body shape appears to be add legs and/or feet to [[File:Body08.png|16px]], in addition to other details.

*[[File:Body04.png|24px]] '''Pokémon consisting of a head and arms''': This body shape appears to be add arms to a base body ([[File:Body01.png|16px]], [[File:Body05.png|16px]], or [[File:Body02.png|16px]]). Arms are prehensile limbs that are used to grab primarily, attack secondarily, and can be used to propel the body finally. Some noteworthy characteristics are that Pokémon within this group tend to have no legs, or they have vestigial legs if they have any at all; as such, many of them travel by bouncing or floating. Curiously, almost none the Pokémon in this group use their arms as movement. | *[[File:Body04.png|24px]] '''Pokémon consisting of a head and arms''': This body shape appears to be add arms to a base body ([[File:Body01.png|16px]], [[File:Body05.png|16px]], or [[File:Body02.png|16px]]).

Wings are limbs that are used to propel the body off of the ground, also known as the XY axis, and allow movement in 3D spaces along the XYZ axis. If the limbs branch off from the pectoral area rather than the back, they can alternatively be seen as a distortion of [[File:Body04.png|16px]]. Some noteworthy characteristics are that Pokémon within this group tend to have feathered or membraneous wings, but this group also include Pokémon based on coleopterans—also known as the beetle family.{{tt|*|Coleopterans have four wings like other insects, but two of those wings are used to form an exoskeleton, while the other two are used for actual flight.}} | ||
*[[File:Body13.png|24px]] '''Pokémon with two or more pairs of wings''':This body shape appears to be add wings to [[File:Body09.png|16px]]. These extra limbs are usually used to accelerate flight and add more sharp, dynamic, and precise movement to the XYZ axis. These wings are often used to perform elaborate airborne dances for communication or to more profiently hunt and/or avoid others. | *[[File:Body13.png|24px]] '''Pokémon with two or more pairs of wings''':This body shape appears to be add wings to [[File:Body09.png|16px]].

Fins are limbs that are used to propel the body in liquids. There is no distinction between fins—pectoral fins, pelvic fins, dorsal fins, etc.—meaning this classification can be seen as a body distortion of [[File:Body04.png|16px]], [[File:Body07.png|16px]], or [[File:Body09.png|16px]], making it the vaguest form of classification. Some noteworthy characteristics are that Pokémon within this group tend to be based on piscine, cetacean, or pinniped creatures. | *[[File:Body03.png|24px]] '''Pokémon with fins''': This body shape appears to be add fins to a base body ([[File:Body01.png|16px]], [[File:Body05.png|16px]], or [[File:Body02.png|16px]]).
