Evolution/Trivia


 * and are the only two Pokémon that reach their next evolutionary forms in multiple ways. Whereas in the handheld games, Eevee becomes  or  when leveled up with high friendship depending on the time of day, in  it evolves when leveled up with high friendship and the Sun Shard or Moon Shard in the Bag. This is because Pokémon XD, like  and, lacks a time function. Feebas, meanwhile, evolves into  when its Beauty condition is high, which cannot be done in the Generation V games or  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- and non-Mythical Pokémon, 90.87% are part of an evolutionary line.
 * Counting Legendary and Mythical Pokémon, 84.19% of all Pokémon are part of an evolutionary line.
 * Generation III introduced the most Pokémon that do not evolve, with 18.
 * Generations and  are tied for the fewest, with just five each.
 * In Generation VII, Alolan Pokémon and Pokémon that evolve into Alolan Pokémon have a different theme and a different colored background during evolution.
