From what Reav3 responded as follows

Reav3 continued, reminding Evelynn's update is currently in development: "Quote: Has her vgu already started? Yes, it started like 4 months ago :)"

Just my curious that how could they started the work such early considering Galio just released this month? Ok the team could finish working on him before March but is shouldn't be earlier than Feb? Did Reav3 included Exploration stage in 4 months too?

He's including what you call Exploration stage, aka pre-production, aka the Core Pod, aka the DNA pod. Wow, we have too many terms for this... but it's when a designer, artist, and writer get together and start planning the new version of the champion. While JohnODyin and LoneWingy were wrapping up work on Galio, they also started working on Evelynn.

I know I've said this a million times by now but I'm really impressed by the rate at which you guys have been knocking out these awesome VGUs. Please know we appreciate the love being given to these champs (even if, as mains of these characters, we don't always see eye-to-eye with your decisions) and do keep up the hard work. ^-^

You guys really need to do a tour video of Riot. Bonus points if you make your own parody of The Office.

I'm positive there was a video about it, but I can't find it right off. Here's the related article with pics though:

We have "exploration" teams that start work on potential future VGU's that start WAY earlier then the main production team. This consists of a Writer,Designer, artists and producer. This is the point when a project can easily be canceled or "ice boxed" so we don't talk about it until we are sure we have a solid core to go into full production with.

For example, while we have Urgot and Evelynn in full production now, we have 2 exploration teams working on whats next after Evelynn & Urgot.

Is hesitant to get his hopes up gets excited anyways

Can I just say that the last few reworks were absolutely Amazing? Yorick, Galio and Warwick have all become champions I thoroughly enjoy and I would even call the latter two my "mains" alongside the big Metal man. At this rate I can't be regarded as a One trick anymore...

All new content is too good. I have gotten so many new mains lately. Au sol, Kled, Yorick, Camille, Talon, WW and ofc Galio. I wouldn't call all them mains but thouse are the champs I have enjoyed the most. Though my latest mains are Au sol (last summer), Yorick (just after the rework), Kled (in the absolute end of season 6) and Galio (last week). I have also mained Trundle a Little bit inbetween everyone since he was my first main and first to get to lvl 7. Just wp VGU team, champ team and roster update team!

I'm still pretty partial to the poppy update. Soooo freakin good.

So, is she going to be a sexy big-tittied lady whose theme is "female sexuality is evil and dangerous"? I kinda thought Elise already filled that part.

you already talked about future champion reworks, but i still wonder if at any point the exploration team will ever work on Sona? Thing is master tier Sona mains+challenger+LCS players are in a delicate position as playing Sona is painful here, but work perfectly in any tier below

logically since riot wants a champion to work in all elos she should be reworked (if we also take 5 other arguments that she needs a rework) but riot never did anything "serious" to her so i wonder if at one point she would be reworked

Any chance Evelynn gets a traditional skin?

Any way we can see some art concepts for Evelynn ?

As long as she doesn't have tentacles I'll (probably) be okay with her.

Riot has really pushed Evelynn's design. It's the most innovative before You thought Sona had big boobs? You thought Miss fortune had big boobs!? YOU JUST WAIT! EVELYNN'S BOOBS ARE SO HUGE IT BLOWS COMPREHENSION!!
