Do you guys make your own Pokemon Sub-Catagories?

I just really want to know, because I've always done this. Stantler, Blitzle, Ponyta, Skiddo, Girafarig, and Mudbray are all grouped together for me as the "Hooves of Justice". I don't know why I picked that name, but it's fitting. Anybody else do this, or is it just me?

    It is clear that certain Pokémon fill certain nichés in their regional Pokédex or have similar inspirations.

    Every region has its own bird (Pidgy, Hoothoot, etc.) small mammal (Rattata, Bidoof, etc.), worms/caterpillars and so forth.

    Then there are Pikachu clones (Plusle/Minun, Emolga, etc.), mechanical Pokémon (Magnemite, Klink, etc.), pollution Pokémon (Grimer, Koffing, Trubbish, etc.) and a whole host of other recurring gimmicks.

    I have a worm and caterpillar category. It doesn't have a name but the pokemon caterpie, weedle, burmy, sewaddle, scatterbug, snom, and applin I find adorable.

    @tommyK2020 they aren't really include because they aren't a caterpillar or worm. They are cute though.

    I group Pika clones and Route 1 Pokémon, and also feminine 3-stage humanoid mons because there's a new one in every gen since Gen 3 (Roserade probably counts for Gen 4).
