I tried searching for the minimize sprite so you could compare, but nothing came up. I'm not sure if anyone's actually ripped it from the game and posted it online at all.

Because tigers are awesome.Chinamen/taiwanese like tigers-dig their mythology for the proof)
And I don't think that all of this are supposed to be tigers,they are just...bad-drawn cats.

Lol at the Pidgeycuno. XD
(Poppofreeze? Jidongbo? o_0)

I also think the redrawn Dragonair (10,1) and Mr. Mime (8,4) are hilarious... And that silly Rhodanthe wannabe, too (1,10). XD

I see a guilmon, electrobuzz, huanter, dragonair, candlemon, magneton,
caterpie, and some type of squirtle wartortle hybrid. Also Gust and
the rock monster Digimon (forgot its name).

Looking at the screenshots and poster for Sheng Shou Wu Yu, it appears they've taken the designs of Bakemon from Digimon and Unicorn (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/File:Unicorn.JPG) from Devil Children. The orange moltres-like bird in the poster seems to be based on Simurgh (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Simurgh) from Devil Children as well.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of those small overworld sprites were from Digimon as well.

EDIT: There appears to be a Famicom version of Shui Hu Shen Shou: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=5972583467&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch8.taobao.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3D%25CB%25AE%259DG%25C9%25F1%25ABF%26commend%3Dall%26ssid%3Ds5-e%26pid%3Dmm_14507416_2297358_8935934&ali_trackid=2:mm_14507416_2297358_8935934,0:1328999468_4z4_1858766254

As usual with bootlegs, there's an alternate cartridge design as well: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=10945053454&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch8.taobao.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3D%25CB%25AE%259DG%25C9%25F1%25ABF%26commend%3Dall%26ssid%3Ds5-e%26pid%3Dmm_14507416_2297358_8935934&ali_trackid=2:mm_14507416_2297358_8935934,0:1328999493_4k1_1158392854

Here's scans of the guidebook for Shui Hu Shen Shou: http://postimage.org/gallery/78zdggc/92579196/

There's quite a few pages, so be sure to click 'next page' at the bottom to see the rest.

Hah I must admit I like their attack list format, showing what all of them look like XP

My favourite attack is the one that says HOW ARE YOU in capitals. I have no idea why they chose that particular phrase for an attack, but it's really funny that they did.

The pink griffon-like creature on the cover art is apparently called the 'Jade Unicorn' and makes an appearance in another Vast Fame game called Xin Feng Shen Bang (which is also really good too): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJrNY73M_kE
