So, Familiar Bond gives you a familiar, but without a lot of the familiar abilites such as deliver touch spells, scry on familiar, share spells, speak with animals of its kind, and spell resistance special abilities. There is Improved Familiar Bond to gain these abilities, but it's basically impossible to get both of these feats at the same time.
Meanwhile familiar archetypes trade out many of these missing abilities, so can a Familiar Bond familiar take an archetype that trades out one of these abilities? Do they just not get the traded abilities? I'm assuming they don't just get a free ride of getting abilities without giving up something.
