User blog comment:Lord Loss/Monster Hunter Theory... Blog/@comment-4212769-20120302173919

I have a theory about the evolutions in Mh:

First it goes like on Earth till the leviathans evolved. The leviathans soon came out of the water to live partly on land. Then came a deformity that a leviathan got a third pair of legs on the back but because they shouldn't be there they hadn't muscles so it couldn't move them. But because there wasn't a disadvantage of that it survived and it passes this deformation to its children. Generations later it evolved the necessary muscles to control them and after further generations the legs evolved to wings so it evolved the ability to fly and the possibility to live constantly on land. This was the ancestor of Wyverns and Elder Dragons.

Then it splat into two again. One descendant was the ancestor of the Wyverns the other of the Elder Dragons. First the Wyverns:

Its wings came nearer and nearer to the arms after generations so the Pseudowyverns were formed. The first Pseudowyvern is said to be Tigrex (the ancestor of all Wyverns) and the whole class is a link between other Wyverns and Elder Dragons what means that all Wyverns evolved from Elder Dragons (remember Tigrex as ancestor) and not vice versa.

The Flying Wyverns were formed as the Pseudowyverns lifted their arms and those evolved to full wings. The Piscine Wyverns were formed as Flying Wyverns got back to water forming fins.

The Brute Wyverns were formed as the Pseudowyverns completely lost every wing-like structure only arms left and started walking bipedal. Raptors evolved through specializing the Brute Wyverns' abilities to more agility than power. And the other Birdwyverns were formed when the Raptors became feathers and formed wings (again...).

Like I said before in the comments of this blog the Fanged Wyverns evolved from the Nargacuga ancestor that is the Pelagi ancestor as well. So they're still Wyverns but not fully and mixed with Pelagi abilities.

The other path describes the Elder Dragons. But that's not far anymore.

What do you think about my theory?
