do you always let your pokemon evolve?

[deadae]

i don't evolve scyther because i train flying types and i wouldnt evolve magmar until he has a speed of 320 or higher same with polywhirl

[SparkleJoy]

No, not always because sometimes I don't like the evolved pokemon or because sometimes they are unable to learn moves through level up once they evolve.

[Flynt]

i evolve most of my pokemon but i evolve pikachu after lv 50.

[Wrathes]

No, not always because sometimes I don't like the evolved pokemon or because sometimes they are unable to learn moves through level up once they evolve.

There are exceptions of moves for certain pokemon.. =/

Eevee
Because Eevee has like 7 evolution u can pick
and Vulpix only if i feel like it cause i like Vulpix better even though he/she i make evolve into ninetales

[Azaeliaz]

Some Pokemon I do, some I don't. When I'm playing my Platinum (which I know is ANCIENT now), I usually deter their evolution for a few levels or so to see if they learn any moves. Besides, there are some Pokemon that can only learn moves in their pre-evolved form. I remember I was playing a new game and I didn't let any of my Pokemon evolve until I started going up against Maylene and Crasher Wake.

[Shadow of Darkness]

I usually try to evolve pokemon as fast as possible unless I want them to learn a move.

[iluvlucario]

It Depends if I want to use them in contests or not and sometimes if the pre evolved pokemon has a better variety of moves.             

[Noah_Road]

I generally evolve my pokes as soon as possible. If I need a pre-evo move then I'll either look it up before hand and hold off the evolution of simply use the move relearner. The only pokemon I will not evolve now is Chansey because I can give her an evolite and she automatically becomes better than Blissey in just about every way

[Mr. Fox]

Dang! you sound like me. if i don't know it, i will after a week thanks to google (or what ever search engine you use). but yes i always evolve my pokes, unless they can effectively use evolite. like lileep over cradily.

[Noah_Road]

It makes me laugh that people don't evolve their pokemon so they can give it an evolite. Fun fact: Not EVERY pokemon can effectivelly use the evolite. People have tried putting evolite on Combusken, Haunter, and Wartortle. Only pokemon that either have a higher usable stat, better typing (this is in Dragonair's case), or is named Chansey should not use evolite.

It works well with Sealeo

[Mr. Fox]

yeah i laugh at that stuff... like really.

But why not sealeo works well with it.  Though it needs to be paired with aqua ring and it's ability ice body (during a hail storm)

Sealeo @ Evolite
Bold
Ice body

Aqua ring
Brine
Toxic
Protect

Evs
132 HP
124 Def
252 Sp Def


 It works very well in a hail team.

[Noah_Road]

Anything with Ice Body and Aqua Ring will work well in hail. Sealeo still isn't bulker than Walrien though, even with evolite. If each of Sealeo's base stats were about 10 points higher, than it would be viable like Chansey, Shellgon, or Gligar (in LC). The fact that Sealeo's only way of damaging the opponent is through consistent hail stall also makes Sealeo seriously outclassed by its evolved form.
