I think the only potential entry on Pokemon is Scorbunny since it looks a bit threatening. The FNAF one can be condensed into an entry on Bonnie's design and how it's used threateningly in various variants.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

Eh, I don't think that Scorbunny is even remotely close to "twisting the easily-recognized and almost universally-beloved form of the rabbit into something terrifying" as Hair-Raising Hare's description says.

Scorbunny is way too cute. The only "threatening" one in the line is Raboot, and that's only because he's an edgy teenager.

Should the Pokemon page be cutlisted then? And could a FNAF fan rewrite that game's examples?

I don't think any of the Pokémon examples count so I am good with cutting the page.

The IP thread provides additional consensus for cutlisting the FNAF page.

I put the Pokemon page on the cutlist, I think a FNAF fan should rewrite that page's examples before we cut it.

None of the bunny pokemon look even remotely scary. The fnaf bunnies can be pretty scary, though, and I used to be a fan of the series. I may a look at that

They're all just Bonnie, though.

An argument could be made that Springtrap and Vanny are sufficiently distinct to get their own separate examples. Or maybe they could all be incorporated into one example, since they're all based on Bonnie. Like I said, only a passing FNAF fan so whatever the fan thinks is better should happen.

I gave the page a look-over; it's defiantly not noteworthy enough to be it's own page. I think the page should be cut and it could just be added onto the main page for Hair-Raising Hare, perhaps with one bullet point for all bonnies, and separate bullet points for Springtrap and Vanny

Just cut it, an example for HairRaisingHare.Video Games can be written using a linked forum discussion as reference.

I attempted to write something, can any FNAF fans verify if this is good?

  • Throughout the Five Nights At Freddys games, there have been a few sinister bunnies.
    • The main one throughout the series, debuting in the first game, is Bonnie, an animatronic rabbit who is just as murderous as the others on account of being possessed by the vengeful ghost of a murdered child. Bonnie has many variations throughout the series, such as the deliberately Uncanny Valley-invoking Toy Bonnie, the severely-damaged yet deadly Withered Bonnie, and Nightmare Bonnie, who's Exactly What It Says on the Tin.
    • Springtrap, first introduced in Five Nights at Freddy's 3, is the worst rabbit animatronic by far. His body is tattered and has wires sticking out everywhere, its mouth has deteriorated into a permanent Slasher Smile, and, worst of all, William Afton's body is inside it, still alive and breathing! This is because the Springtrap suit (previously known as Spring Bonnie) was the one Afton used to lure his victims to their deaths before being killed by the suit itself.
    • Vanny, the Big Bad of Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach. She's been corrupted by Afton's influence, turning her into a Psycho Knife Nut who wears a creepy rabbit mask.

A significant improvement.

Exactly What It Says on the Tin looks odd, maybe it can be potholed under "is a literal nightmare" or some nightmare trope could be used. Maybe a pothole to Once per Episode under "many variations" can be suitable.

I think the last part would describe a "creepy rabbit fursuit" and not a mask.

Yeah, looks much better! And I agree with Amonimus’s ideas for changes; Vanny has a full suit, not just a mask.

I added the example with those changes to HairRaisingHare.Video Games and cutlisted the subpage.

Cut, so I'll lock this.
