A total of 63 votes!
About 9 people voted paraves, including me. While being massively beat out by the winning answer, twice the amount of people voted for it than any of the third place answers, so my theories might be having some influence.
About 4 people voted Scansoriopterygids.
About 3 voted for another maniraptor group.
About 5 voted for another theropod group.
About 2 voted other saurischian group, which is technically the canon answer.
One person voted silesauridae.
About 5 voted other Avemetatarsalian group.
About 4 voted other archosaur group.
One person voted Lepidosaurs.
About 5 voted synapsids which was surprising.
4 people voted parareptilia.
And about 20 voted multiple/other/nuance.
there isn’t a whole lot I can say here, since my post looking at the results of the bird wyvern poll links to posts talking about my purposed evolutionary history for the two groups and how I’d classify them.
I know many people think they aren’t a monophyletic grouping and typically exclude paolumu and the cave wyverns, which is fair. Although my own idea is that the cave wyverns, paolumu, and pukei are a group of paravian flying wyverns that ancestrally were brood parasites with a cloaca on their tail tip to make it easier to brood parasitize and had a more muscular face and inflatable neck sacks connected to their avian respiratory system. Pukei lost the neck sacks and muscular face while paolumu lost the brood parasitism, and the cave wyverns went all in on all three (and the neck sacks are how they extend their necks). The idea was inspired by @glavenychus’s own theory of Pukei being related to the cave wyverns.
As for finger numbers on flying wyverns (which I call the Wyvern Phalanges Problem), the only real way they can be maniraptors with that many fingers is if they have polydactyly or not all of their fingers are actually fingers, and I go with the latter idea. In various posts I’ve talked about how ancestrally flying and bird wyverns have only three fingers, and that their wings are mostly supported by jointed styliforms I’ve called “pseudophalanges”. Flying wyverns exhibit many different configurations of this, from the three free fingers and single styliform of tigrex to the more bird-like rathalos with a free thumb, fused second and third fingers forming the leading edge of the wings, and three styliforms.
Thank you everyone for voting!

Rathalaugust 2024 #1 - Legiana
A gorgeous monster I've actually been wanting to try for a while. I referenced an equally gorgeous photo of an osprey from this video for the pose.
I hope this thing returns to a new game someday. It's very specialized to the Coral Highlands, but... it's beautiful and its roar is iconic. They should just make it a new rich, updrafty habitat. :]

If not too much trouble could I request a legiana? She's my absolute favorite, and I hope they put her in wilds. The coral highlands is just a beautiful biome all around. Anyway, your art is super cute, and I love seeing all the silly little guys 💕
She's the prettiest princess at the party and absolutely knows it!!
