Wurmple will [[Evolution|evolve]] into either {{p|Silcoon}} or {{p|Cascoon}} starting at [[level]] 7 depending on its [[personality value]]. As personality values cannot be influenced or seen by the player, what a given Wurmple will evolve into is essentially random. From there, the Silcoon or Cascoon will evolve again starting at level 10 into {{p|Beautifly}} or {{p|Dustox}} respectively.

** Pokémon whose evolution are influenced by their [[gender]] also evolve based on their personality value, although, unlike Wurmple, their determined evolution can be known in advance.  
** By evolving Wurmple to Silcoon or Cascoon, and then exiting the game without saving, it is possible to learn which form Wurmple will take without irreversibly evolving it. As the [[personality value]] is a static value, [[Soft resetting]] to revert it back to a Wurmple and evolving that same Wurmple again will never result in a different evolution from the prior attempt.
