Skeleton Wolf Type

Yes I know - many people have asked for this before.

But I think a skeleton wolf would be a great addition to go alongside the 8 new wolf types!

Not only would it look great, but I imagine it can provide some more functionality to other features of the game:

For example, summoning/finding the skeleton wolf could somehow be tied to the new archaeology system, adding a greater incentive for players to brush at some suspicious sand.

It could also be tied to the nether, maybe found rarely in the soulsand valleys, or within bastions as another exclusive mob.

  Love this idea. I think it would be super cool if the skeleton wolf worked like the skeleton horse and is created by lightning striking a regular wolf (but I also love the idea of finding them in the soul sand valley because it would make me hate that biome way less and want to go there to get a skeleton wolf so I’m torn on how it should spawn).

  I would like the mob to be hostile until you tame it. (It would be cool to have a hostile mob that is tameable). Also would like the skeleton wolf to be classified as undead (so it is healed by potions of harming and harmed by potions of healing) while also being immune to sunlight and able to walk/run on the ocean floor (or underwater in general) the way skeleton horses are.

  Would also want a wither skeleton wolf variant. I think it could be created by breeding 2 skeleton wolves in a nether fortress (this would make it hard to get and fun for people who like collecting rare mobs like the brown mushroom and rare blue+orange axolotl). The wither skeleton dog would give the wither effect to stuff it attacks (like the wither skeleton does) and would be immune to fire and lava damage because it is a nether mob. I feel like those two features would make wither skeleton dogs very desirable for players who love combat or pvp because the wither effect and immunity to burning would make them tough and better fighting companions then regular wolves.
