So I learned about breeding, and decided to try it out in an effort to obtain the three different evolutions of Eevee, in my ongoing journey to Catch 'em all!™
I got my 3 eggs, 2 of which have hatched (the 3rd is being extremely stubborn...) I gave the first newly hatched level 5 Eevee a Fire Stone, and to my surprise, it evolved right there on the spot... I thought you had to level them up while they are holding a stone... *shrug*
Next I gave the second Eevee a Thunderstone, but it didn't evolve. So I went to level it up, got it from level 5 to 12, and still nothing... Confused, I googled. I found a post about how Eevee needs to be happy, and you can check if it's happy by talking to Daisy (your rivals sister) in Pallet Town. With Eevee the first Pokemon on my list, I went there. She said my Pokemon were dirty, and offered to clean them, which I allowed. Then I spoke to her again, and she said something along the lines of, "Your Pokemon need love and care, may I see your first Pokemon? Oh it is very happy!" With it's happiness now confirmed, I went to level it again.
It's now level 19 and still won't evolve. What's going on here?
EDIT: Having the same issue with a level 26 Pikachu.
