Evolution IMPORTANT question!!!

[EOJOMAMA]

Okay so this is my first post and i have a quick probably newbish question. Lets say I have a level 25 pikachu and I want to evolve it into a raichu. Will evolving the pikachu (or any pokemon for that matter) into a raichu earlier give it better stats later on if i want to lvl it to lvl 100 then if i lets say evolve a lvl 50 pikachu into raichu and lvl it to lvl 100? I never know what to do in this situation with my pokemon so please help my pokemon master friends! Will they both end up having same stats or which option is better?!

it depends like im not getting what you mean do you mean attacks as well like what they will learn or just stats

No. When you evolve a Pokémon has no effect on its end stats. Raichu doesn't get any of the level-up moves that Pikachu gets, so you may want to hold off for that reason.

If you want to learn what does effect a Pokémon's stats, read up on EVs.

it has no effect at all, just moves..check the R/S/E/F/L pokedex about Moves

No, it doesn't matter on which level you evolve it, once it gets to Lv 100 it will have the same stats.

The final stats will be the same.
So weither you evolve it at level 99 or 50 the final stats are the same.

dont evolve it! let it learn its best moves and evolve it once it has learned all the moves! it will still get the same stats when you evolve it!

It had no effect at all, even if you did evolve it at level 99 its stats would still be the same if you evolved it at tlevel 5.

Nope!You should evolve it until it learns more moves.

NO!!! You should evolve it on lv 26!! then he learns THUNDERBOLT and further he dont learns any good moves!! maybe thunder but than you need raine dance i think!! but i should evolve it on 26 because you always can give him tm THUNDER so LV 26!!!!!

Light Screen and Agility may come in handy. It's all a matter of preference. Check Pikachu's level-up moves to see which level he learns the last move you'd like. Evolve him after that.
