::I think catching Pokémon in the wild is more of a primary way of getting them than evolving. Otherwise Pokémon like {{p|Butterfree}} would tell you to evolve Metapod instead of catching it on {{rt|2|Kanto}}. And it is really obvious that you evolve Fenniken into Braixen. There are evolution templates on the pages. There are prev-next templates on the top and bottom of the pages, and Pokémon are next to their evolutionary relatives in the National Pokédex unless [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|separated by generation]]. The brief summary at the top often mentions its evolution. So there are plenty of links to {{p|Fennekin}} on {{p|Braixen}}'s page. And the area template only tells you to evolve if it was the only way in-game to do it. Completely removing Friend Safari from the area templates would be lying to people and making it harder to find the [[Friend Safari]] page.

:::Except that the Friend Safari technically isn't the wild. It's not a normal method of obtaining a Pokémon IMO because very specific qualifications need to be met in order to obtain it. On pages like Combusken, it says "Evolve Combusken" instead of Trade, because it's the most common way of obtaining it. What I'm trying to say is, the typical way of obtaining Braixen is through evolution, not the Friend Safari. The Friend Safari shouldn't override the evolution method.
