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 your 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, one 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.
