It seems very poorly researched everywhere, but there might be some conditions in which the 49 HP damage criteria is met, but Yamask still cannot evolve. I had it faint and used a Revive, didn't evolve. Had it use Curse twice to get to 1 HP, still can't evolve. Is it the case that Yamask has to take direct damage to count? Has anyone else experienced this as well?

::I don't know when it was removed by I wrote it as one attack before. FWIW: | |||
<pre> | |||
What if you lose 48 HP in a single attack (and don't faint)? | |||
No evo | |||
...49 HP? | |||
Evo | |||
What if you lose >48 HP in multiple attacks and heal between? | |||
No evo | |||
What if you lose >48 HP in multiple attacks without healing between? | |||
? | |||
What if you lose 49 HP and a different Pokemon faints? | |||
Evo | |||
...What if a different Yamask faints? | |||
Evo | |||
Store Yamask for a bit? | |||
Evo | |||
...What if you lose 49 HP and then do another battle and DON'T faint still (...and go to another city or two with loading in between)? | |||
Evo | |||
Cancel evo, faint in a battle, and try again? | |||
No evo! | |||
What if you faint, Max Revive, and then lose 49 HP? | |||
No evo | |||
What if you lose 49 HP from Toxic or Curse? | |||
No evo | |||
(For Curse you'd need about 200 HP) | |||
What if you use Curse (to cut your own HP)? | |||
No evo | |||
What if an ally in a Double Battle does the damage? | |||
Evo | |||
What if you lose 49 HP from confusion damage? | |||
(High level, repeated Swagger...) | |||
? | |||
...Recoil? (High level, one move with low PP, Struggle (1/4 dmg)) | |||
No evo | |||
Other recoil moves? (Struggle is relatively weird) | |||
? | |||
What if you lose 49 HP from Pain Split (used against you)? | |||
No evo | |||
Half my remaining question is, does the damage have to come directly from a physical/special attack from an opponent (or just "not this Yamask"), or is there any way it can come from Yamask or a status move or anything else indirect. | |||
Indirect damage seems to be disproved by Curse effect damage | |||
Self-damage is probably disproved by Curse self-damage | |||
(Probably includes any recoil damage...) | |||
Pain Split may have been the only candidate for status moves | |||
So... | |||
Seems like, at least functionally, it has to be another Pokemon's physical/special attack | |||
You can cancel Yamask's evo and still be trigger it again just by immediately walking under the bridge | |||
