Some Pokémon evolve when they are leveled up while holding a specific [[evolution-inducing held item]]. If a Pokémon evolves this way, the item disappears upon completion of the evolution; the item is not consumed if the evolution is cancelled. This evolutionary requirement was introduced in [[Generation IV]].

All Pokémon that evolve this way also require that they be leveled up at a specific time of day to be evolved.

Some evolutions require an item in addition to the Candy cost. All evolutions that require an [[evolution-inducing held item]] (except {{p|Feebas}} and {{p|Clamperl}}) or [[Sun Stone]] to evolve in the core series require an item to be spent in Pokémon GO. For evolutions introduced in Generation II, the item required is the same as in the core series. All [[cross-generational evolution]]s introduced in [[Generation IV]] require a [[Sinnoh Stone]] to evolve. All evolutions introduced in Generation V that require an evolutionary stone in the core series (except a Sun Stone) require a [[Unova Stone]] in Pokémon GO; Generation V evolutions that require a Sun Stone in the core series also require it in Pokémon GO.

{{main|Evolution Item (Pinball)}}
In [[Pokémon Pinball]] and [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]], once the Evolution Mode or Evo Mode starts and the player chooses a Pokémon to evolve, then three instances of the same [[Evolution Item (Pinball)|Evolution Item]] appear somewhere on the table, one at a time. The player is required to get the three repeated Evolution Items before the time runs up in order to evolve the chosen Pokémon. For instance, if the player attempts to evolve a {{p|Vulpix}} into {{p|Ninetales}}, they will be required to find three [[Fire Stone|Fire Stones]] on the table. Most available Pokémon evolve by [[experience]], which requires getting three "Ex" Evolution Items. If the Pokémon evolves by [[trade]] in the core series, then the player needs to get three [[Game Link Cable|Link Cable]] Evolution Items.
