    Its so nice that caterpillars just get to eat and eat and eat without worrying about becoming fat and at the end they turn into a gorgeous butterfly no mater how much they eat!!!

      Pokemon "evolution" it's just a glorified metamorphosis. True evolution takes millenia or even millions of years, and it has the purpose for a creature to adapt and survive, not just becoming bigger or stronger than before.

      In insects with simple metamorphosis the young look much like the adults, lacking only wings usually. Think of a tiny praying mantis. It looks like a praying mantis already. With beetles and butterflies they look totally different.

    I've kept Vapourer moths as "pets" before here in the UK, so I've seen a lot of this process - they, too, look cool as caterpillars, and the adults are quite interesting as the females just have tiny little wing stubs and sit on the cocoon emitting a pheromone to attract the males (hence, "vapourer" moth).
