Would someone mind testing if Kadabra evolves despite holding an Everstone in generation 3? I'm very sure I remember it doing so a few years ago, but I lost my link cable and can't test it myself.

==Weird Issue in Sun and Moon==
I noticed twice that in Sun and Moon, when it evolves into Abra at Level 16, it learns Kinesis, but it does not learn Confusion even though it is supposed to at that particular level. Anyone else encounter this problem? -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 18:36, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
:It's been made fairly widely known across sites like Reddit, although I'm not sure why it happens. I'm not sure it would be prudent for us to note until we can determine why it happens — whether it's due to a glitch or something else.

::Probably a glitch, but when the time is right, it should be noted as a trivia piece. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 19:22, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
:::It wouldn't be appropriate for trivia. If/when we find out why it happens, the proper place would probably be a note at the bottom of its learnset section. It's bad to just randomly dump things into trivia when they could fit fine in the main body of the page.

{{indent}} I believe it is a glitch. I tested, and found that when I evolved..
*Tentacool into {{p|Tentacruel}} at level 32, it learned Poison Jab;
*Magikarp into {{p|Gyarados}} at level 21, it learned Bite and Leer;
*Metapod into {{p|Butterfree}} at level 11, it learned Gust but not Confusion.
So I guess that upon evolution, Pokémon with evolution moves will not also learn other moves they also learn at level 1. (Note that I didn't completely rule out that all Pokémon will not learn any non-evolution move they also learn at level 1—there do not seem to be many examples, but I found Hypno level 53—, nor that they don't learn Confusion specifically upon evolution.)

== Makes no sense ==
"Yungerer is a corruption of Uri Geller (with リ ri replaced by the visually similar ン n), who claims to have the ability to bend spoons with his mind, as the Japanese names of the Abra line are based on famous mystics. As a result, Geller sued Nintendo of America for using his likeness in a character."
This makes no sense. It's the JAPANESE name, so why would they sue the AMERICAN Nintendo?
Just wanted to point that out.

:I cannot find any sources (I checked Google as well as all those cited on Wikipedia) that specify which part of Nintendo was sued; they all simply say he sued "Nintendo" with specification. I don't think we should be claiming it's specifically the American division without a source, so I'll revise it to simply "Nintendo".

:|The only account I can recall Israeli entertainer Uri Geller suing Nintendo is a [https://web.archive.org/web/20010426221708/http://www.tcom.co.uk:80/hpnet/pokemon_usatoday.htm USA Today article] saying that Geller plans to sue either in America or Japan or both.  [https://web.archive.org/web/20010426182423/http://www.tcom.co.uk:80/hpnet/enquirer.htm Other articles] mention that Geller does have a Japanese agent as well as an audience in Japan, so it is unlikely he wouldn't sue Nintendo of Japan.  In fact, according to [http://www.pokebeach.com/2008/07/second-pokemon-interview-with-masamitsu-hidaka-many-interesting-points the second interview with Masamitsu Hidaka], the Geller lawsuit did reached in Japan but the only information regarding the status of the lawsuit is that "the case had not been settled and was still going on, and that they were not allowed to use Kadabra on a card until an agreement was reached."  This was back in 2008 and the lawsuit wasn't resolved anytime soon at the time.
