>>20747623>Cubone is in fact an abandoned child of KhengiskanThis is an exceptionally POPULAR rumor, but it is of course false. To put it in simple terms and to explain why this rumor is so popular: Cubone and Kangaskhan are in the Egg Monster family. Marrowack, Kangaskan, Tyranitar, and Aggron all specifically though share their own family of "up-right, Therapod monster" Pokemon. It's all in the Egg groups. Snorlax and Lickitung are ALSO in the Monster egg group, but they are more closely related to one another than they are to the "other" pokemon in their egg group.
>It's also been theorized that the Musharna line is the result of aborted Hypno line eggsThis 'was' once a popular theory that even I humored at a time, but it was quickly dismissed when Musharna and Munna were found to not even share the same egg group. Hypno belongs to the Human-like or Humanoid family and Musharna and Munna belong to the "Field" family. Like I've said before: They are most likely a product of convergant evolution as they both eat dreams... musharna though just takes it far more "seriously".
