Problems with characters and character relations

Pokemon: Pokemon have different stages of evolution. Each evolution would need its own database entry and a relation "evolved form of" would be needed. A Pokemon should be shown with its evolved and pre-evolutionary forms on one page.

Digimon: Digimon are even worse than Pokemon. Not only can they evolve to a higher digitation but they can also combine/fuse with each other to create new Digimon.

Ranma 1/2: Ranma transforms into a girl, his dad into a panda, and so on. Each transformed should get its own character entry and a "same character as" relation. All characters linked by a "same character as" relations should be shown on one page.

Sailormoon / Wedding Peach: Basically the same situation as with Ranma 1/2. Each transformation should get its own character entry and a "same character as" relation should be set.
