sometimes the inspiration changes through evolution (jigglypuff and wigglytuff, magikarp and gyarados, or need i mention dragonair dragonite, larvitar pupitar and so many more)

sometimes trying too hard to see something in the design has the opposite effect, also not everything has to have a Spanish relation, so there is no need to stick to concavenator, just because it happened to be discovered in Spain. arctibax ok, but the other two?

:Concavenator:
:* Has a fin on its back
:* The fin is said to regulate temperature
:* Has quills or feathers on its wrists
:* Was found in Spain
:All of these traits are shared with Frigibax and its evos (all of them have ice fins that can absorb heat, quills/feathers on their wrists, live in Paldea). That they share this many traits with each other means that the connection isn't a mere coincidence. Also lest we forget, a lot of kaiju are also based on dinosaurs in the first place.
:"But Frigibax doesn't look like a dinosaur at all" it's called stylization. Gible doesn't look like a shark either, for example.
:I also would like to remind you to not go overboard with putting pop-culture references in the origin sections. Pokémon is its own thing, first and foremost; referencing random pop culture things esp when they have nothing to do with the designs in question (eg. saying Pawmot is based on Iron Man) doesn't help anyone.
