      Many Pleistocene hominin fossils discovered in China have been similarly difficult to classify, and were previously perceived to be anomalies, according to the study. However, this discovery, along with other recent research, is slowly changing what people know of the evolutionary pattern in the late Middle Pleistocene.

      It doesn’t seem to be just one anomaly, so it’s probably another addition to the human family tree. Not sure if scientists and paleoanthropologists still use the term “missing link” though, since it implies a linear progression of human evolution.

        I always thought it simply referred to a a suspiciously large gap where significant evolution happened rather then a specific Pokemon evolution.
