Thread: New method of evolution?

I'm hoping they'll continue to expand the ways you can evolve Pokemon in Gen VI. Post suggestions of ways you'd like to see!

One I'd like to see is evolution by fainting. For instance, imagine if the first "lame mammal" pokemon you caught (i.e. Ratatta, Bidoof, Zigzagoon) started off Normal, but if it faints in Battle when above a certain level/happiness/a certain move or move type it evolves into a Ghost type?

Probably too dark for a supposed kid's game, but it'd be awesome.

Using an item a certain number of times?

I.e. you use 5 Casteliacones on Vanillite to make it evolve into Vanillish (because you are adding ice cream to its body, lol).



Or, defeating a certain opponent.

I.e. Riolu evolves into Lucario after defeating a dark type (and leveling up? idk)

I'd like to see more Mantyke-style evolutions (specific Pokemon must be in party to evolve), as it is quite forgettable on only Mantyke.

We've got Pokemon fusions with Kyurem now. Maybe we could have Shelder fusing with Slowpoke too?

Or have a Pokemon that only evolves when it faints?

Right when I heard Pokemon X & Y , I thought there might be a new Evolution method call ''Fusion Evolution''.

Fusion evolution would be nice. Id like to see other Pokemon than Kyurem be able to do this.

I want to see an evolution when a certain stat reaches a certain level. It can promote IV/EV training (which ever it is), and is simple to do.

I think it might be possible with steel type Pokemon .

A perfect evolution method was possible back when weather was introduced. Weather-induced evolution can still be a possibility for the new Pokemon though.

I do like the idea of weather evolution. Not like the Moss Rock or Icy Rock, but like, weather during battles + leveling up.

Don't we already have this because when slowpoke levels up to 37 it evolves into Slowbro or Slowking when traded holding a King's Rock. w

it should come with a built in digivice that plays the appropriate music when you warp digivole a digimon wih a pokemon.

i said this before i would like to talk to the pokemon "come on you can do it evolve for me please" the 3ds has a mic i think ? if not we just buy one £££

or if it evolves by feeding it certain food.

An evolution by leveling up with minimum happiness would be interesting, especially if the next stage gains a Dark typing in the process. The Pokemon could have a high base happiness to prevent this from being too easy.

The problem with fusion evolution, even in basic cases like Slowpoke + Shellder or Magnemite + Magnemite + Magnemite, is which pokemon is the "brain"? Meaning, which set of IVs, moves, happiness, and so on does the new Magneton keep?

The only way I could imagine this working is if you had, say, a Slowpoke in your party and there is a lab somewhere that offers to fuse it with a Shellder that you never owned.

The bigger problem with fusion is that it is unnatural. Just look back to the way Kyurem becomes black or white to see why it is unnatural.

Already done with Tyrogue. Whether or not he evolves into Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, or Hitmontop depends on his attack and defense stats. xP

Anyway, I don't really like the idea of fusing Pokemon besides the way Kyurem does it. I just don't see it working well. And as already stated, it's unnatural.
