This would be better than what they currently do, which is just upsetting. For example, let's make a water-type panda Pokémon:

1. cute blue panda cub
2. darker blue panda, slightly bigger and with longer limbs, with lame attempt at giving it "attitude"
3. somebody's blue panda fursona with abs, pecs, and a crotch bulge

or
3. somebody's blue panda fursona with Pixar mom hips and a bust with a fur tuft on it
