I can't believe that Chelc approves threads like these...

We're getting WAY to many stickies (I guess this one will be stickied too) which now are becoming in-the-way. At this rate, the first page will soon be 50% stickies... what's up with that? I thought we all wanted a clean forum here.

Seriously... these types of threads.. no one cares. And if anyone actually would care about when-evos-occurr, you can easily look it up at the 'pedia. No need to have a thread dedicated to it.

Too old for your rubbish..
I actually think this is a good idea. Kudos to you sir.

Sinnoh evolution gaps are rather interesting...Especially the later ones, which are all around 15 episodes apart.

Sinnoh Begins (Episode 469)
Starly » Staravia (Episode 481) -- 12 episodes
Gligar » Gliscor (Episode 553) --72 episodes
Turtwig » Grotle (Episode 568) -- 15 episodes
Staravia » Staraptor (Episode 586) - 18 episodes
Chimchar » Monferno (Episode 600) -- 14 episodes

I really could see another evolution for Ash (*cough*Floatzel*cough*) by episode 616.

I think it might be better if you put how many episodes it was at that particular stage before it evolved. also you could include all those who have yet to evolve and how many episodes they have been at that stage , jut a thought

Thank you, SPPf! :)

I was actually gonna say the same thing. And I find this to be a lot less useful than the "Battle Records" thread, considering how you have basically the same thing on the main site's character bios. I'm all for generating more passionate discussion, but covering the page in basically an encyclopedia of stickies isn't gonna cut it.

I don't think this is a bad thread at all, and it should stay open, but I may have to protest a potential sticky.

So as a more positive contribution to the topic, I'd suggest adding Richie. As much as I loathe him, he's just as legitimate a rival as Morrison.

Best solution would be to merge this thread with the battle record thread (even tough I despise that thread too).

Hes not examinating anything hes just tired of pointless thread like some other ppl.

Like S.Suikun said theres no need to keep track on this because its on the main site updated by Serebii.

Your Big Buff Bro
Im just taking a guess that Ash will only have one more evolution in the DP series, in Sinnoh. And Buizel has my guess,
 

Clubfoot

Hurricane-Thunder
Ash will have one more and Grotle is it.
 

An00bis

Wicked Witch
Egg » Azurill (Unkown)

Considering what you did with other Pokemon whose evolution happened off screen this should be " Before Episode 409 ".

And if anyone actually would care about when-evos-occurr, you can easily look it up at the 'pedia. No need to have a thread dedicated to it.

I agree. This information is or already should be on Serebii's site in the Character Bios which were last properly updated Zeus knows when. If you want to look it up you can just look there and be linked to the episode guide and pictures and everything.

Is there going to be a discussion in this thread? Or are all just going to bash the thread creator for making a pointless thread?
Come on guys, you don't have to be so mean x_x

This is useful because it's all in one place, you could just come here instead of going from bio to bio in the character section on the main site.

This could easily be on the main site if Serebii wanted to dedicate a page just for it but it isn't too much of a pain to go through the Character Bios looking up evolutions still. This isn't like the Move or Battle Thread in the sense that it'll be updated every episode (move) or every other episode (battle). Since we're near the end of Sinnoh evolutions will be few and far in between as well.

I'd suggest adding Richie

Ritchie:

Zippo the Charmander >> Zippo the Charmeleon (Before Episode 223)

The rest of Ritchie's Pokemon were already evolved on introduction; Happy the Butterfree (Episode 80) and Cruise the Pupitar (Episode 222).

Well, I'm sorry that I've took some time to sum these evolutions up so you guys could see them all at once instead of looking everything up in every BIOs.
And I've made this thread for you guys to discuss about it, not to get negative comments.

I asked Chelc for permission to make this thread, I DID not asked for stickyness.
So please, stay ontopic.

Anyways, I've added Richie to the list, I guess I forgot him ^^'
Hmm, maybe I could make a list of the Pokémon who have yet to evolve, like some of you suggested.

Also, if a Pokemon is not fully evolved and has not turned down evolution, you can do that same thing ShinyCharyzard did. Like this:

Ash's Monferno(Evolved once Episode 600 - Present)

But, don't do that with all Pokemon that can still evolve, and have not turned it down, like Ash's Grotle, because many people think it wont evolve. You can also do what tblade said by putting the amount of episodes a certain Pokemon has been ints previous form(s) and current one. Nice thread.
