One would expect the fossil record to be discrete. Fossilization is phenomenon that is extremely rare and reliant on very specific environmental and geologic circumstances.

On the contrary, evolution is quite adequate for explaining the vast variety of living creatures on Earth. It is a method to the madness.

You apparently don't understand what it means to say that the fossil record is "discrete."

So? "Explanatory power" is not an indicator of factuality.
