If the real world worked like Pokémon, what animal would evolve into what animal?

Caterpillar > Cocoon > Butterfly / Moth

Wait...

The moth transformation occurs when the cocoon is near a lamp.

Hamster Guinea Pig Capybara

For sure guinea pigs would evolve into capybaras

And hamsters into guinea pigs.

Gary Newman -> Gary Oldman

Lemming > Chihuahua > Honey Badger

Just angrier and angrier all the way through

What level do we all evolve at?

Shrimp > Prawn > Lobster

Aren't shrimp and prawn already the exact same thing?
Like mountain lions and cougars.
- Shrimp vs prawn is colloquial, not a scientific classification, so it varies from place to place and person to person, and depending on the specific animal we're talking about, but in general
  The ones we call shrimp tend to:
  Live in salt water
  Be smaller
  Have curled bodies
  Belong to the sub-order pleocytema
  Have plate-like ~~girls~~ * gills*
  And the ones we call prawns tend to:
  Live in fresh water
  Be larger
  Have straight bodies
  Helong to the sub-order dendrobranghiata
  Have branching ~~hills~~ gills

Tapir - Rhinoceros - Elephant

Tapirs are one of those animals I always forget exist and am delighted when I am reminded of them.
- That’s shrews for me. They’re like rodents, but way cuter.

Ferret > Badger > Bear

Female/Male Maine coon cat into male lion look with mane

Mane equity!
also 😸

Corgi into German Shepherd into Wolf

Quokka > Wallaby > Kangaroo

Vulture > ostrich

Kanye West -> Kanye East

this is only possible by trading the Kanye
- But also evolvable with the rare item: Kanye Shoes.

Camels -> giraffes

Alpaca > Llama > Camel

Yeast > Mold > Brie Rind > Chanterelle

Algae > Fern > Sunflower > Eucalyptus Tree

Squirrel > Raccoon > Bear

Deer > Elk/Caribou > Moose

Cow > Yak > Bison

Magpie > Crow > Raven

Ant > Termite > Bee > Hornet

Tick > Spider > Crab

Fox > Coyote > Wolf

Pillbug > Horseshoe Crab > Armadillo

Salamander -> Turtle -> Seaturtle

Duck -> Flamingo -> Ostriche

Pidgeon -> Parrot -> Turkey

Hamster -> Ferret -> Prairie Dog

Chameleon -> Komodo Dragon -> Alligator

Mosquito -> Anteater -> Elephant

Anchovies -> Salmon -> Dolphin

Fox -> Wolf -> Bear

Cat -> Cheetah -> Mountain Lion -> Tiger

Worm -> Eel -> Snake -> Anaconda

Mosquito
I see what you did there.
Pidgeon -> Parrot -> Turkey
I think it would be Pigeon -> Parrot -> Pheasant -> Peacock, but then I don't know a lot about Pokemon.
Duck-goose-swan imo...

Llama > Alpaca > Camel

That one is kinda dumb but it's all I can think of right now.

- Thanks for fixing it for me. :)
  Wait, what would it look like with 3 humps?

Goldfish Swordfish Megalodon

Duck --> Crocoduck --> Crocodile

Remember when creationism was the dumbest thing on the internet?
Wasn't that nice?

Monkey > Great Ape > Human

Leeches -> businessmen

Landlords > Leeches
Leechalot -> Landlawd -> Ceeyeeo
Here's another one: Contractworka -> Fulltyme -> Letgoh

Beetle -> slightly bigger beetle -> slightly bigger beetle

-> Paul Harrison -> John Lennon

Kiwi > Emu > Cassowary

Chimp to Orang utan to gorilla

Weasel to ferret to mink.

Here's a freaky one : Jaguar > Cow > Giraffe

Hmm… maybe Zebra > Okapi > Giraffe?
"Why does this Cow know Slash?"
"... why does this Giraffe know Milk Drink?!"

Waterbug -> Cricket -> Locust

Fun fact actually, crickets already evolve into locusts in the actual animal kingdom

Fun fact actually, crickets already evolve into locusts
No they don't. Are you thinking of grasshoppers, maybe? Although that's not exactly true either.
- Yes, sorry. But yeah, a grasshopper will, during a fertility shortage, go through a transformation and seek out a swarm of its brethren, forming what we call locusts.
  They say there used to be more locusts in the US and Mexico than there were in the Sahara, but that when the Gold Rush happened, so many people passed along where the grasshoppers lived that the necessary numbers needed to make locust swarms was reduced by the constant tramplings of passerbies.

Anole > Iguana > Alligator

Mouse > Rat > Opossum

Armadillo > Pangolin

Fish Shark Whale

Domestic housecat -> all big cats (like Eevee)

Now I want to go do an ask pokemon on "if your house cat or dog were an eevee, what would it evolve to?"
Cheetah > Puma > Jaguar > Panther > Tiger > Leopard > Leopard (snow variant) > Lion > Lion (mountain variant) > Maverick-
Oh wait, that doesn't work that way at all.
- Lion (mountain variant)
  The thing you call a "mountain lion" over there in the US isn't a lion. It's a cougar.

Fish would absolutely evolve into octopi.

Cuttlefish -> Octopi

Pomeranian -> Shiba Inu -> Akita Inu (or maybe Malamute)

I don't know, but you know that big Agra is going to develop synthetic evolution stones to artificialy grow plants and livestock.

Rare candy?

Pheasant evolves into Peacock or Turkey depending on evolution stone.

Isopod -> pangolin -> armadillo

Single scoop ice cream to double scoop ice cream to triple scoop ice cream

...What do you mean that's already a pokemon evolution??

Wait, for real?
Edit: fucking hell it's true. And its name is fucking Vanillite, smh. And I also see a whip cream pokemon, too. Why everyone still buying that shit is beyond me.

Frog -> Gecko -> Bird

Bonus - baby evolutionary form prior to frog: Axolotl

(Hyperlinks to specific species)

Axolotl > salamander > giant Salamander

Mankey -> NPC

I think the biological evolution tree or whatever is the name would essentially showcase every evolution known so far 🤔🤔🤔
