Seriously, the first time I played emerald, i never would have imagined that Shuppet evolves into Banette. It's such a weird evolution and I don't find any similarites and any connections at all. o.o;;

Oh and Trapinch into Vibrava which turns into a Flygon. Seriously, a erm, crap thingy turned into a bug-dragon thing which sprouts huge wings that can levitate? o.o;;

And Remoraid into Octillery. How can a fish, turns into an Octopus? unless... Remoraid isn't a fish?

Okay, now that actually makes perfect sense (now that I think about it, I learned a lot of important life skills and developed a lot when I was Lv15............I mean 15 years old).

I'm pretty sure Wynaut is not a puppy :/
Oh man, can I PLEASE put this in my signature?!?!?

Anyway...


Snorunt > Froslass
There is a familiar story associated with this, I just can't remember what.

Gastly > Haunter > Gengar
Spirit, sprouts arms and spikes, then sprouts legs. It's the struggle of a soul to become closer to real again.


Natu > Xatu

A small bird wished to know all, to fly higher, to look down upon those who cannot. It's wish came true, and saw the future and past, and flew higher with its larger, more magnificent wings.

I realize that, but insulting him won't solve anything, and will only get you in trouble (which I will be getting into as well if I don't get back on topic) Personally, I'm religion, if only because of my parents, but I still believe in evolution.

Back on topic, Drowzee ---> Hypno was a bit odd...What happened, did he get old and lose weight lol?

I mean how can a vegetative fish develop into a (flying?) thrashing sea dragon?

"Magikarp is based on a legend about how carp that leapt over the Dragon Gate would become dragons. Several waterfalls and cataracts in China are believed to be the location of the Dragon Gate. This legend is an allegory of the drive and efforts needed to overcome obstacles. "

Exeggcute isn't (or aren't) actually eggs. They are seeds. Which look like eggs.

But it's still wierd...



5 eggs > one coconut tree with 3 heads.


Where do you suppose the other two are?
There are 6 eggs and Exeggutor is supposed to have 6 heads, but they vanished some time before 2gen I think.

That is weird. How can a thing that feeds on the bad emotions of people [Shuppet] evolve into a doll that was thrown away? [Banette] Unless Shuppet saw a kid throw a doll away and seeped inside the thing, I don't understand the connection either.

But then again, who said Pokemon has to make sense? :-D

Graveller > Golem (where did the extra arms go?)
Dowzee > Hypno (seriously, how does a trunk become a nose like that?)
Exeggcute > Exeggutor (eggs don't turn into coconuts, c'mon!)
Dragonair > Dragonite (so much difference...)
Sentret > Furret (racoon turns into ferret: interesting!)
Snorunt > Glalie/Froslass (hat becomes glacier/girl?)

But I still like them all. :D
In what way is Sentret a raccoon? I don't think having a striped tail is enough to qualify it as a raccoon. It seems more like some kind of weird flying squirrel, to me. If any Pokemon is based off of raccoons, it'd be Zigzagoon. It is kind of weird that both Sentret and Zigzagoon's evolutions are kind of a different species, though, whereas Rattata and Bidoof essentially just get bigger/fiercer.

And I agree about Dragonair and Dragonite. Sure, they're both dragons, but they're pretty much on opposite ends of the dragon spectrum. It would be cool if Dragonair got an alt. evolution that was a bit more elegant looking. A gender based difference in evolution would make sense there, with Dragonite being the male, and the more elegant one being the female. Doubt that'll happen, though.

And I know it's been brought up, but Octillery and Remoraid really puzzle me. I didn't even realize they were at all related until I was trying to fill up my Pokedex in Emerald and got to them.

I can see the connections between Shuppet and Banette, although it is weird that they gave Banette a sort of backstory that Shuppet doesn't necessarily fit into. Then again, Shuppet = puppet, so that makes more sense than simply going off its description does.

Well, I also kinda find Tangela > Tangrowth weird.

A plant which is kinda like a seaweed? Turns into a plant monster. o.o;;

Here...

Plant has tangled vines, grows more tangled vines, and eventually has some longer vines that turn into arms.

Not too weird to me.

Yup. It would be Trapinch & Vibrava. I mean, a large mouth Pokemon that bites hell turn into a bug like dragon!?!?! Come on!
...Flygon is still based on a dragonfly. o_O; And if not, Vibrava definitely is and they're making a gesture toward the fact that it's a dragonfly with the final evolution. Everyone else already covered the ant-lion thing.
Half-Dozen Eggs > Coconut Tree.
We have a winner. :( This always bugged me as a kid. I don't think they're seeds though since Exeggcute lives in a nest. 8|

Forgive me but... what? :| The Chicken learning to fight makes no sense to me. I like a lot of your explanations but... what. XD;

As for Drowzee and Hypno, yeah that's what they do but I (along with many others) still don't get the specific relation of looks between Drowzee and Hypno. o_O

:P Or maybe Tangela had arms all along and it only managed to get them untangled when it evolves.

Of course you can, you don't have to ask. ;)

Your spoiler is starting more **** then anyone else here, that is very offensive, and can I mention very partisan and biased. Seriously, leave him alone, its his own opinion, don't attack him on it.

Blegh, leave him be. I don't think he openly insulted anyone who believed in evolution, so he's not exactly at fault. He's just expressing his opinion.
Amen to dat mah brotha.

[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I was going to put (?) but I forgot. It may be a mix of a fighting chicken a legend I heard about a giant fire chicken but I didn't read it all the way through so I'll have to check.

There both tapirs and bakus, which look a lot like tapirs.
Although I must admit hypno doesn't look as much of a tapir as drowzee (although at an angle hypno does look like one) but that may due to hypno also mixed with a hypnotist.

Shuppet-Banette
Spirit that possess dolls becomes more powerful.

If anybody has any other questions of the reasons for these evolutions please tell me because some of them are much more complicated then what I've said.

Magnetic compass rock grows, has three rock fetuses around it, adds magnetism under the nose, iron fillings from Mt. Coronet attached to under the nose.

Overall: still wierd
