Very nice. I never really noticed it till a friend brought it up, but besides their typing and being based off of rocks, Graveler and Golem look NOTHING alike in the least. How the heck does it go from a rock monster with 4 arms to a dinosaur-like creature emerging from a boulder(which btw is way different rock material than Graveler's), and why does it lose 2 of its arms?
This makes a lot more sense, really. If Graveler evolved into the final form demonstrated in the top row, and Golem was either just a standalone Pokemon, or was part of it's own 3 stage evolution chain. It'd be a lot better overall. Obviously, Nintendo or Game Freak won't change it any longer now, but it'd be better if it was a thing from the get-go.

No problem! 
Believe me, gen 1 had way too many Pokemon of that repeated typing, lol...the Geodude line, Onix, the Rhydon line...and now a mini-Golem line too...too many OHKOs by Surf or Razor Leaf, lmao.

Agreed. Even as a kid, I felt that Golem's design based on his prior forms made no goddamn sense.

Yup, lmfao. I just go along with it anyway because it's freaking Pokemon, but if I could go back to the past and change some Pokemon I sure as hell would.
The ones from gen 2 onwards tend to make sense, but some of the gen 1 ones really don't...
Golem we already tackled. Dragonair to Dragonite...why...at least leave the color the same, I like blue a lot more than orange. Pidgeot...I used to think it was cool till I realized it's just a bigger Pidgeotto with a mullet, lmao. Mega Pidgeot is what regular Pidgeot should've already been, it's MUCH better. The Dewgong line...it looks cool but a bit too plain. I wish they at least gave it a huge horn to make it look more like a magical narwhal than just a tiny one that barely makes a difference in the design. And so on and so forth.
I love gen 1, don't get me wrong, but...some of the designs are a bit...boring or nonsensical, lol.

I don't blame you. One of the best designs from Gen 2 is Feraligatr in terms of consistency in the evolutionary line.

I was just thinking how Geodude, Graveller, and Golem don’t really look much alike enough to be related. Geodude and Graveller a maybe but Golem, as much as I love him, doesn’t seem to fit.

I mean Geodude to Graveler makes sense, as Geodude is literally just a rock with arms, and Graveler actually looks somewhat decent. Otherwise, Geodude's evolution would just literally be a bigger rock with arms...which would be unbelievably lame. I kind of hate Geodude's design before evolving, really. Just a rock with arms...too unrealistic to be a real creature or animal, but too mundane to exist in a fantasy world.
I agree with you on the Golem, though...it just doesn't fit in, lol.

Top row: I agree with that. Graveler evolved into a totally different looking final form and lost two arms in the process.

OMGGGGGGGGG now I'm so salty the top Golem isn't real arghhhhhhh

They're all amazing.
The detail and how they all flow and seem believable evolutions

Yeah, Golem was one of the weirder shifts, along with the Dragonite Chain and a few others. Kind of interesting in a way (a few too many Pokemon were just "like the first one, but bigger- Muk/Grimer, Krabby/Kingler, etc.), but... why did Golem lose two of the arms if he was an evolution of Graveler, y'know?

Exactly, didnt make sense

The geodude -> graveller -> golem lineage was one of absolute favorites as a kid. 9 year old me would lose his mind if he could see this. Shame it's not official concept art.

You've created a way for Pokemon to make more sense. Man. I so wish this were real.

I did alternate evolutions of Remoraid and Octillery if they help with any ideas:

Remoraid Alt. Evolution
I love your work so I don't mind if you borrow my ideas or not, yours will turn out better anyway XD

I wonder what they'll look like in their Alolan Formes.
