>cubones and marowaks live in small nomadic hunter tribes
>they hunt kangaskhan or some other shit and take their skulls
>when their tribes got too big they had to start wearing the skulls for identification
>baby cubones dont get a skull until their parents die
>they inherit their mothers skull and club and begin training to become a warrior for the tribe, kind of like batman except every cubone does it
>after they get their first kill and avenge their parents, they wear the skull of their first kill and wear it for the rest of their life
>its kind of like coming of age
>when it says they wear their mothers skull, it really means "the first skull their mother took"
>it makes sense and explains the cubone to marowak skull change

The design being the same is real, the in-universe explanation is not but has never been contradicted either making if just a crazy fan theory that might be true. Way to talk shit and shrug at backing it up by the way, faggot.
Both use the basic placeholder design from the early stages of gen 1 development, along with Rhydon which was the very first Pokemon to be finalized by slightly altering its shape from that and increasing the size.
You can try to explain it if you want, but its actually only a relic of the early sketches. Pic related in fact is the very first Pokemon art.
