To be totally nitpicky shouldnt this be backwards?

If we're going by real-world evolution rules, OP is the next evolutionary stage compared to their dad, who is in turn the next stage compared to grandpa.

Pokemon "evolution" is more like irl metamorphosis

Sure, I'm just saying that's why I imagine, they put it this way around. I do agree that it's weird. You'd expect grandpa to be level 70, so he definitely shouldn't be a baby dino anymore.

Asbestos and lead are too dense, thus preventing flight.

I think they meant the placement of the text, switching places between the "grandpop" and the "me". Would make more sens to me.

Right, but I think we're the final evolution, because you don't get Charizard without Charmander.

But also you aren't born a Charizard but rather Charmander and evolve (get older) towards Charizard.
