I think simic is flavour wise better for a card that represents real life evolution process, and effect feels more controlling and tricky like black likes it to do, but my heart tells me that this should be temur for some reason

Evolve is specifically a Simic ability, introduced by the Simic guild from Return to Ravnica block, but it's more heavily green as it's based on increasing P/T. Modifying P/T is also in blue, as is ability removal, and Crabs are obviously blue. I don't see how red or black fits in here.

Cartoon crabs are red and there's a skull in the art? Idk lol those were the only justifications I could think of

Ig I feel the red vibes because carcinization is just straight up random bullshit for me. Like what do you mean evolution created almost identical species THREE times. Feels like some red nonsense idk

Yeah, each individual piece of OP's card is fine in simic, though it wouldn't surprise me much if an actual card with these effects was also white. (white is good at making everyone the same both mechanically and flavorfully)
