Evolve without an evolutionary stone: Difference between revisions

#A PokemonPokémon that evolves by evolution stone, such as Clefairy, Staryu, or Pikachu, etc, as the first Pokemon in your party.

1.#The Getplayer has to get into a trainer battle.

2.#Switch Haveout the first Pokémon in your party,that the oneplayer youris trying to evolve, gainand aput levelthe Pokémon that corresponds to the necessary evolution stone.

This glitch can also be done when encountering a wild Pokémon. Have the Pokémon your trying to evolve start the battle and then change Pokémon and place the Pokémon that corresponds to the required evolution stone in battle. Have the Pokémon end the battle. Both Pokémon will gain experience and for the glitch to work, the Pokémon yourthe player is trying to evolve will need to gain a level from the experience it gains.

One should be precautious not to let this glitch happen to the starter Pikachu on Pokémon Yellow because it will force it to evolve regardless of the fact that this is normally impossible as it refuses to take the Thunderstone. However, onethe player could always purposely evolve the Pikachu to make either gameplay easier or fill in Raichu's Pokédex entry but a Raichu with the player's OT will ''not'' follow the trainer.
