That sort of reminded me of a theory I once heard about Butterfree and Venomoth. Supposedly Venomoth was supposed to be Metapod's evolution, and Butterfree was supposed to be Venonat's evolution. Why the two were switched is unknown, but a lot of people theorize that cause of the eyes of both Butterfree and Venomoth matching Venonat and Metapod respectively.
