Speaking about the platypus...
But I do believe that God made this creature this way so that the theory of evolution could not explain the evolution tree of this species.

Its a marsupial, like most of the indiginous species in Australia. Very few marsupials are found elsewhere.
Therefore this actually proves evolution.
Actually, inmate:
The platypus is one of the two animals in the order Monotremata. It is the only member of the mammal family Ornithorhynchidae.

But yea, science has actually defined its evolutionary tree pretty well.
Real fundies don't believe god created the platypus, because that would mean god has a sense of humor, and, as we all no, fundies are fundamentally against humor.
No, evolution has no problem with it. How do fundies explain how a pair of these fresh-water animals, so sensitive to their environment that it was years before a zoo was able to keep them without killing them, left the ark, padded across the deserts of the Negev on their webbed feet, wandered through India, down the Malay peninsula and swam across the salt water sea to Australia?
Like when you use your own perception of order to prove it, you use yor own perception of a "strange creature" to prove it doesn't fit in with creatures YOU PERCEIVE as "normal".
Science doesn't... ah, to hell with it.
Unlike religon, which generally states God did and we will never know why, science has been using evolution along with all the avaliable evidence to construct the massive taxonmy tree that lists every single species and their ancestors. AND WE DO HAVE PLATYPUS ON THERE. They may look bizzare but there are actually evoluntionary advantages to their adaptations.
So, wait, God specifically predicted that people would come up with the ToE and created the Platypus to disprove it?
Couldn't he have, like, not created the Earth using material that shows up as billions of years old when tested? That seems easier. Or perhaps just not created life in such a way as to totally go against the creation story.

Monotremes. That, and the Echidna. Both Marsupials.
Question: if Labradors and Poodles are not indigenous to Australia - and of couuuuuuurse all creatures just appeared, 'poofed' into being, as is, 6,000 years ago, as per the literal 'Word of God', and of course by defibnition all of said creatures are un changing as that wou;d prove the existence of Evolution (and Hybridisation/Crossbreeding IS Evolution; all you Cre(a)ti(o)nists claim that DNA doesn't exist, as it isn't mentioned in the Bible), why did the Labradoodle not exist until 1988 CE in that country?
NEXT!
God didn't create the Platypus.
Satan put lust into the hearts of a duck and a beaver. The animals acted out their perversion, and Voila, platypus.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
