What are all of the Pokemon that evolve from one creature into a totally different creature?

2 minute read

The couple that come to mind:

Remoraid (remora) - Octillery (Octopus)Carvanha (piranha) - Sharpedo (Shark)

I guess this really only involves animal-based Pokemon.

One that is kind of pushing it is Rookidee (Chickadee) - Corviknight (Raven) I can kind of see how they would evolve though.

Pokemon like the Charmander line, (Lizard to Dragon,) don’t count because they evolved to have wings and be more powerful.
