I'll wildly guess 3 and 7:

> 3. [OE.] A ghost.

It feels like an animal of some sort. That's probably because of the Pokemon thing.

That said, the only reason I don't believe most of these is because we're in a situation where fully 92% are guaranteed false. Good job with the fakes.

So: 4 & 11

4.       The Barbary ape.
