  • to not evolve your starter?
    on my leaf green game i have a level 76 charmander
    and on diamond i had a piplup level 40 something until i had to evolve it so empoleon could learn rock climb (currently searching for a piplup to trade!)
    have you ever done that?
    i just think the pokemon are cuter when they arent evolved...

    Not at all. I personally prefer having good looking Pokemon over strong ones. You could call me more of a contest person than a battling one. :P

  • I rarely evolve Pokemon I think look cooler. For example, Dragonite is fat... But Dragonair isn't XD
    Disclaimer: I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST DRAGONITE

  • No, that isn't weird at all. I didn't evolve my Turtwig until it was level 60.

  • Well, it's not weird at all, just probaly more sensible to evolve them for the stat changes & etc.

    Nope, it's not wierd at all XD I agree with Nanako who said that she prefered Good looking ones. I still have my Squirtle in Leaf Green, and it was some time before I let my Pidgeotto evolve into Pidgeot. Do you think that I'm going to let my Phanpy evolve? Not a chance! :P I only let Charmander and Mareep evolve.

    Thats something I want to do but situations betray me and insists me to evolve. =[
    Its not weird , it may be even more of the advantage.
    There's something you can make Pokemon hold that stops them from evolving, I forgot what it is though...

    Some Pokemon learn moves that they wouldn't unless held back from evolving for a few more levels, but I think that's the only advantage.
