At most, they're expies. A purple thing that runs around flinging poison, that also gives out power extract. A red creepy monster which shoots electricity. A quadrupedal wyvern with high agility and jumps around a lot (it doesn't anymore). A lava monster shooting heat rays plus hard (or temporarily hard) armor. A loner that has one creepily haunting rage mode, and is the bane of many hunters. Ice mammal that throws snowballs. Many more. At least most of these "ripoffs" have excellent movesets different from their conceptual origins.
