This is a list of Pokémon by their evolution family. That is, it is a list of Pokémon in their [[National Pokédex]] [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|order]], however, it includes [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|later-released]] [[evolution]]s and [[Baby Pokémon|pre-evolutions]] closer to the first Pokémon in their family to be released. This means that {{p|Pichu}} will appear before {{p|Pikachu}}, instead of at its National Pokédex position of 172, and {{p|Magby}} and {{p|Magmortar}} will appear next to {{p|Magmar}}. Evolution families are named by their basic evolutionary form. For example, although {{p|Azurill}} is the lowest Pokémon in its evolutionary line, it is still known as the {{p|Marill}} family, because Marill was released first. | This is a list of Pokémon by their evolution family.

*[[Professor Rowan]] is said in the games to have studied Pokémon evolution and determined that 90% of all Pokémon are related in some way by evolution. As of [[Generation VI]], with 110 (59 normal, 51 legendary) Pokémon out of 718 total not evolving, this is quite accurate, as a little over 84% of all Pokémon undergo at least one evolution before being fully evolved. Excluding legendaries, which do not evolve as a rule, brings this percentage to just over 91%.
