Global PokédeX Plus Forums _ Pokémon Debates _ Evolving or one offs

I'll ignore my worries and speak out.

If one thinks of it a lot of pokemon are in need of evolution inorder to get quite powerful and give hits to many pokemon you'd go against.

Example would be the pokemon Magikarp & Febass. *clear throat.* Pardon if I mispelled there. If Pokemon like tat go from frail and barely able to powerful and swift and dangerous. In fact we could go into other pokemon which are decent but then become highly powerful if it's given the power.

BUT...

There's pokemon that don't evolve yet got quite strong attack or the like. I'll go with...Zangoose, and Aerodactyl. Both of them got quite good power and seem quite bulky compared to the lowest evolved pokemon. Though the downer of that is the power is SET in rock so it won't evolve much or at all.

So... which would be perfered by you? (I like both of them though it's not an easy choice.)

I'm guessing you mean do I prefer evolved Pokemon in battle or non-evolved Pokemon. If that is the case, it depends on the Pokemon. Like Serperior, Pikachu, and Victini for example. I like using all of them, but they are all different. Serperior is fully evolved, while Pikachu is slightly evolved/non-evolved, but I like both of them because of other things, not if they're evolved or not. And then Victini. All legendaries don't evolve, and people usually have one Legendary on their team, so what are you supposed to say on that? By the way, it would be useful if you told us if this is about Pokemon you battle with, or Pokemon you like.

Yea. I been thinking of it since I try to battle with some of my favorites which a number of them don't evolve. (Smeargle, Zangoose, and Absol.) Though I will admit, do use evolved pokemon. (Nidoqueen, Blaziken, and Lucario.) Though I feel it's good in both ways. (And yes...it is though reason why is I noted lots of people, if they don't mention teirs which is another topic, use evolved pokemon to the point I could barely recall any single non evolving mon short of pokemon that are rare or event pokemon.)

I prefer pokemon that evolve. For some strange reason, I just find them easier to use. Wierd, I know. Maybe it is just because many of my favourites are evolved forms, anyway. However, there are many non-evolved pokemon I like, and I am happy to use them as well. (Chatot, Pachirisu, Absol, etc)

I don't usually go with non-evolvers - I tend to find them harder to raise. Plus, I like the satisfaction of seeing something I've raised evolve.

Hard to say, from my point of view...I mean I get where you're coming from, I think, but I believe its all personal preference, meaning which pokemon do you like to use. I mean I have a lot of favorite pokemon, and its difficult for me to choose which I like.

I use both kinds of pokemon

Posted by: Verinia May 17 2011, 02:33 AM

Me? I prefer evolved Pokémon. Though I still use unevolved ones such as Aerodactyl, Azelf, and Absol. Coincidentally, all of them start with a letter A.

Depends really, but I mostly use Pokemon that evolve.

I'm more comfortable with pokemon that are evolved. Since sometimes, their stats are greater.
I do like some non-evolving pokemon like Aerodactyl and Absol, though.

Posted by: SmugleafForever Jun 12 2011, 08:49 PM

I wonder. I like both.

The evolving Pokemon, like starters, they have horrible stats in the beginning, but they improve as they go on.

I like Zangoose, Absol, and the legendaries, of course though.

I prefer pokemon that evolve as their stats are usually higher in their final form, though they sometimes look ridiculous. Even though people dislike the look of ones like Garbodor, it is still much better to evolve them.

Onee of them must be Magikarp

I always feel a lot more comfortable with evolving pokemon because they give me some motivation to level them up. Even here in GPX+ I'm more likely to throw an evolving pokemon into the pokewalker than a non-evolving one, simply for the satisfaction of getting them to their final evolution stage. When I have a non-evolving pokemon in the pokewalker I feel less inclined to mass click.
