While I like the idea of having something original, and something you fully own, I feel like a few things are being removed with the move from a pokemon to a normal animal. No longer there is the plant theming that Snivy has.
What about the "grass moves" that a snivy can learn and use? Can he do something similar to those?
Moreover, is there something that he can do that his snivy counterpart can't? I'd be interested to see if he's got something new we haven't seen yet.

Constriction--
He's more meant to be a bit more level and "normal" . Consider this a more sfw version of Shane as well. I really needed something I could show to normal people without them going "Why's he got a bulge the size of a beachball?"

He's still sort of a work in progress, meant less as a character and more as just pure self insert with some extra stuff

Also, thanks for taking the time to comment, I find input from others really valuable and its cool to get some feedback

You're welcome, I'm glad I could help, and I'm looking forward for the stuff you get in the future.

Cool to see I've got you as a fan, who knows, might come to you to draw either him or his doppelganger~ I'm certain you'd do him super well!
