I would swap skunk and raccoon, personally. Skunks shoot liquid at you, and I imagine of the three that the raccoon would be most likely to burn down a building, it if could.

Skunks really tend more toward a toxic/poison element/type. By DnD standards, their self-defense is somewhere between Acid Spray and Stinking Cloud.

The actual skunk Pokemon is Poison/Dark type.

Liquid attacks can still count as poison. See the move "acid".

Agreed, I would not have swapped them if you’d said poison, it was just the fire that I thought didn’t quite fit the skunk (:

They would evolve into a Fire/Poison skunk with explosive gas, since methane is flammable. I'm aware that skunk spray is actually liquid, but the idea that it isn't is a popular trope that they could do something with.
