** In [[Generation II]], the [[Upgrade]] was the only item with no other use than triggering a trade evolution, while the [[Dragon Scale]], [[King's Rock]], and [[Metal Coat]] also had some in-battle effects unrelated to evolution. However, the Dragon Scale had the in-battle effect originally intended for [[Dragon Fang]] due to [[List of battle glitches (Generation II)#Dragon Fang effect|an oversight]]. This was fixed from [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] onwards, rendering the Dragon Scale with no effect other than being used for evolution.
