The intend seems to be animal + Rider, where the animal is just an animal, not necessarily anything to do with the Rider.

I guess I'm assuming it's either just based on what they thought was visually interesting combos between animals and riders, or maybe the animals are meant to reflect the personality of the riders? It honestly seems kind of random to me at the moment (maybe it'll all make sense later?)

I guess it is possible it could actually have been picked totally randomly or for some weird or benign reason, i know toei does a lot of focus testing so that could be source of the animals chosen?

Remember Gaim is only an orange because oranges were the fruit kids liked most in focus testing (banana came in second, which gave us Baron), so clearly focus groups have a big impact on shows when it comes to themes and designs

maybe once we have the show it'll be possible to figure out the reasoning, but we also may never know tbh
