 Some Pokémon evolve in other unique ways. If one trades a {{p|Karrablast}} for a {{p|Shelmet}}, they will evolve into {{p|Escavalier}} and {{p|Accelgor}}, respectively, though neither will evolve if one of them holds an {{evostone|Everstone}}. When {{p|Inkay}} reaches level 30, the player must hold the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] upside-down for it to evolve into {{p|Malamar}}. Also introduced was a weather-based evolution: {{p|Sliggoo}} will evolve into {{p|Goodra}} beginning at level 50 only if it is [[rain]]ing in the area that the player is in. Finally, {{p|Sylveon}} can only be obtained be leveling up an {{p|Eevee}} that knows any {{type|Fairy}}  moves and has at least two hearts of affection in [[Pokémon-Amie]].
+==In the side games==
+===Hey You, Pikachu!===
+Some missions [[Hey You, Pikachu!]] involve {{p|Pikachu}} interacting with other Pokémon in certain ways to cause their evolution. In ''Caring for {{p|Caterpie}}'', the player and Pikachu supervise a group of Caterpie, who will evolve into {{p|Metapod}} and then {{p|Butterfree}} if treated well. In ''Field Trip'', Pikachu can water wild {{p|Oddish}} and {{p|Gloom}}, causing them to evolve into Gloom and {{p|Vileplume}}, respectively.
+===Pokémon Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness===
+In {{g|Colosseum}} and {{pkmn|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, while evolution typically works as normal in the main series, [[Shadow Pokémon]] are incapable of evolving until they are [[Purification|purified]] and return to normal. In Pokémon XD: Gale of Dakrness, the player's {{p|Eevee}} is incapable of evolving into {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}} through normal methods, because the game does not have a [[Time]] mechanic. However, early in the game, the player is given their choice of evolution item to evolve it, including the [[Sun and Moon Shards]], [[key item]]s that will evolve Eevee into Espeon or Umbreon respectively after it levels up.
+===Pokémon Conquest===
+In {{g|Conquest}}, because the mechanics of [[level]]s, [[experience]], and [[friendship]] do not exist, Pokémon typically evolve once they reach a certain [[link]] threshold with their partnered [[Warrior]] or [[Warlord]]. Pokémon that normally evolve via high [[friendship]] in the main series games, such as {{p|Golbat}}, instead evolve after reaching a certain link percentage, usually between 60 and 70 percent. Pokémon that normally evolve at a set level instead evolve when a certain [[stat]] reaches a specific value. For example, {{p|Spheal}} evolves when its HP has reached a value of 138, which is partially determined by the link with its Warrior. Warriors with Pokémon that require an [[evolutionary stone]] to evolve must equip themselves with that item and then perform an action that causes their link to improve, such as completing a battle.
+===Pokémon Pinball series===
+In {{g|Pinball}} and {{g|Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire}}, the player can evolve Pokémon they caught in Catch 'Em Mode in a separate mode called Evolution Mode (EVO Mode in Pinball RS). In this mode the player selects an evolution-capable Pokémon in their possession, then guide their ball towards three symbols representative of their method of evolution in the main games, such as EX for [[Level]] evolution, or a [[Link Cable]] for Trade evolution. If the player collects the three symbols in time, they can bring their ball to the Center Hole to evolve their Pokémon, awarding them with their [[Pokédex]] entry and points.
+===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
+In the {{pkmn|Mystery Dungeon series}}, Evolution is restricted until the player complete the main scenario of the respective games. Evolution is typically done in a ritual held in several locations across the {{OBP|Pokémon world|Mystery Dungeon}}, including [[Luminous Cave]], the [[Luminous Spring]], or the Tree of Life. However, starting in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]], the player character and their partner may not evolve until they complete an additional scenario. Pokémon who evolve through unusual methods require an additional item to act as a catalyst.
+In later games in the series, enemy Pokémon may evolve at will after defeating a member of the player's party. In {{pkmn|Super Mystery Dungeon}}, the player character and their partner evolve into their final forms several times throughout the story. In addition, recruitable Pokémon that exist as NPCs in this game or previous games will refuse evolution. However, because all Pokémon can be recruited separately though the [[Connection Orb]], the player can still access their respective evolved forms in alternate ways.
+===Pokémon Snap===
+In {{g|Snap}}, the player can interact with Pokémon in certain ways that will make them evolve.
+* At the end of [[Pokémon Island]]'s [[Pokémon Island Tunnel|Tunnel]] stage, if the player lures the three {{p|Magnemite}} together, they will fuse and become a {{p|Magneton}}.
+* At the end of [[Pokémon Island Volcano|Volcano]] stage, if the player knocks a {{p|Charmeleon}} into the crater of magma it is circling around, it will evolve and come out as a {{p|Charizard}}.
+* Luring a {{p|Slowpoke}} to a fishing area along the [[Pokémon Island River|River]] will prompt it to fish with its tail, hooking a {{p|Shellder}}, causing it to evolve into {{p|Slowbro}}.
+* Hitting the {{p|Grimer}} in the [[Pokémon Island Cave|Cave]] three times with [[Pester Ball]]s will cause it to evolve into {{p|Muk}}.
+* In the [[Pokémon Island Valley|Valley]], completing a series of events will cause a {{p|Magikarp} to evolve into {{p|Gyarados}}.
