>>5295042>>5295043Sickled Kamikaze Shivralsa, have long thrived in their specialization as sole predator of Blimpahs, however this hunting strategy (while incredibly advantageous) is incredibly high risk, even compared to the Shivralsa's usual divebombing strategy: it requires the Shivralsa to leap from far higher up, at a far more unforgiving horizontal angle where gravity can't do all of the work for it. To help mitigate these problems the Shivralsa first developed longer limbs better oriented for leaping, and more noticeably it evolves it vestigial swimming membranes to stretch over said longer limbs, creating make shift gliders. While the Kamikaze can't "fly" perse, it can certainly glide, turn, and slow itself, while falling. This makes successful attacks far more likely, and failed attacks far less punishing.
On a side note, minor mistake in the dossier: Shivralsa's didn't evolve from Shivralikans. They share a common ancestor some where on the way back but I'm pretty sure the first Shivering Alsa's were on land before the first Shivralikans had even evolved.
t. guy mostly responsible for the evolution of both.
