Evolution: Difference between revisions

*{{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Feebas}} are the only two Pokémon that reach their next evolutionary forms in multiple ways. Whereas in the handheld games, Eevee becomes {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}} when leveled up with high [[friendship]] depending on the [[time]] of day, in {{Pokémon XD}} it evolves when leveled up with high friendship and the [[Sun and Moon Shards|Sun Shard or Moon Shard]] in the [[Bag]]. This is because Pokémon XD, like {{g|Colosseum}} and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, lacks a time function. Feebas, meanwhile, evolves into {{p|Milotic}} when its [[Beautiful (condition)|Beauty condition]] is high, which cannot be done in the [[Generation V]] games or {{g|X and Y}} unless the Feebas had its Beauty condition raised in [[Generation III]], [[Generation IV]], or [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] previously. Due to this, the [[Prism Scale]] was introduced, so that Feebas caught in the wild or bred in [[Generation V]] onward would be able to evolve freely.

* Of all non-{{pkmn2|Legendary}} and non-[[Mythical Pokémon]], 90.87%<!--607 / (721 - 53)--> are part of an evolutionary line.

* Out of all Pokémon that evolve by a set level, {{p|Larvesta}} evolves later than any other unevolved Pokémon, at level 59.

* Of all the Pokémon that evolve by leveling up, {{p|Hydreigon}} evolves from its {{p|Zweilous|pre-evolution}} later than any other Pokémon, at level 64.

* [[Generation III]] introduced the most Pokémon that do not evolve, with 18.

** Generations {{gen|IV}} and {{gen|VI}} are tied for the fewest, with just five each.
