Generation V's Pokémon's Future Evolutions
With every Pokémon game to come out, there has been a few Pokémon that just don't have the stats or move-pool to be very viable for in-game or competitive use (except early in-game). Examples of such Pokémon include Golbat and Roselia in Gen I and Gen III respectively. Gen V has introduced some similar Pokémon, that are just begging for an evolution.
Personally, I think that Basculin needs an evolution, and I would really like to see how it turns out. I'm not sure whether Gamefreak will create one, but I imagine it would evolve into some sort of piranha/shark (similar to Sharpedo). Also, I wouldn't mind seeing an Emolga evolution, although I wouldn't want it to be ugly. What Pokémon from Unova do you think will gain an evolution? What Pokémon would you like to gain an (d)evolution in the next generation? For non-Unova Pokémon, use this thread. Don't be afraid to give a reason as to why. |
I think an Audino evolution would be cool! It's a lot like Chansey so why not? or maybe instead of an evolution it could be a pre-evolution.
|
I totally think Swoobat needs an evolution. It seems to me like the Zubat/Golbat/Crobat counterpart, so it needs a 3-stage line. Also, its stats are very lacking. I could foresee it evolving with a new type of evolutionary stone, or by a new method altogether.
Stunfisk. He's not bad as he is, but having an evolution would help out. Maybe he'd become more attractive-looking, and be based on a large mud-skipper. How about a baby Druddigon? Druddigon is a decent Dragon-type on his own. A Dragon-type baby Pokemon would be an excellent concept. What about baby Heatmor and Durant? That wouldn't be the first time a duo of counterparts both received baby forms. i.e. Elekid and Magby. |
Was thinking of a pre-evo for both Throh and Sawk similar to how Tyrogue relates to the Hitmon family

And while we're at it, what are the chances of having the "Hitmontop" of the Oni fighter duo? |
I can see a lot of potential in a Munna branch evolution. Maybe make it a part Dark type. idk. But yeah, a lot of potential. I could see in a somewhat more on two feet figure.
A pre-evo for Bouffalant would make it a lot less obsolete from Tauros in some way if you know what I mean. I can see a little cute thing with the same size afro as Bouffalant. I'd also like to see a Branch evolution to Ducklett, something a little more tough looking and less feminine. |
Swoobat - Previously mentioned to parallel Zubat line.
Basculin - When I first saw it I thought they would be stage 1 for something then when I found out they were stand alone I kind of was surprised at that. Include a branch evolution for the different forms. Zestrika - Seemed pretty mediocre toward then later stages in the game compared to it's alternatives. So I'd be open to another evolution. Druddigon - I don't care if it's an evolution or pre-evolution but I would like to see something added to it so it will have a line. Add to Heatmor and Durant they seem like they could both have continuation of lines. |
I like that they designed most Pokemon with evolutions, which just hints to me they won't be evolving Pokemon any time soon in the next generation :x
About 25 or so don't have evolutions, the rest do. If they add about 10, you'd get annoyed fans @ repeating DPPT, so... I just don't think many are likely. I honestly don't think what we have can be improved upon. Actually wait, other than agreeing on the Zebstrika line (maybe it could be useful? lool) and a Liepard evolution, then there's not much I really want. |
I was thinking Liepard as well. Too me it didn't really seem like much of a viable option especially by the time they started appearing in the wild around Nimbasa. I felt out of all the Dark types showcased in BW it was the worst out of all of them, at least in terms of battle prowess.
As much as I would like to see a Darmanitan evolution I think it's pretty strong as is. Some of the stand alone seem to be pretty awesome pokemon as is like Sigilyph and Cryogonal(and I don't know how they could even expand upon its design outside of making it a bigger or small snowflake). Then there are others like Maractus where I just don't see the point of doing anything with it at all. |
Well, Basculin really needs an evolution. With decent IVs and training it's a great Pokemon, it beat half of E4 for me. Has a nice move pool as well.
I'd love to see Darmanitan evolve! Darumaka is so cute, but then it evolves into this ugly monkey. Do not approve. It's a strong Pokemon but in my opinion needs a better looking final stage. Also Emolga, Musharna, Audino, Stunfisk and Alomomola would be much better with another/more evos. |
Basculin evolutions would be cool, but at the same time, It would be REALLY similar to Sharpedo.
How about a druddigon evo? Not that we need more Dragons. Only if it would look cooler. |
I think Druddigon needs a prevo, then give it's current form slightly higher stats. (It's a bit lackluster compared to Haxorus, and you can get Haxorus earlier than Druddigon.) Probably the same for Basculin, just because it could use some extra later-game power.
|
I think Maractus needs an evolved form. By looking at its stats, I can tell that they're mediocre at best, save for Special Attack. Its evolved form could have higher offenses and Speed.
|
What Pokémon from Unova do you think will gain an evolution?
Hmmm both Durant and Heatmor; it would be awesome to see the "Enemies" of Unova have a final evolution. SO in that case, They should make Seviper and Zangoose evolve too What Pokémon would you like to gain an (d)evolution in the next generation Hmmm......Spiritomb and Banette because it would be awesome for these two to evolve (since Dusclops got an evolution, what about Banette?) :t354:TG |
-Basculin
-Maractus -Audino (needs something else besides being the rare pokemon you want to faint for mega-experience) -Heatmor (needs something to make it stand out more, maybe a non-legendary Fire/Steel stype going with the furnace idea) -Durant (maybe something like, females could evolve to queens, others evolve to soldier ants or other types- so much wasted potential). As for older pokemon I felt many 3rd gen pokemon would have gotten evolutions by now but if it was for the future- -Sableye & Mawile (Mawile's an interesting pokemon but its stats are so low) -Luvdisc (maybe an Angelfish?) -Dunsparce -Delcatty could use another evolution, it's stats are just too bad to find it appealing -a Bug/Water alternative evolution to Surskit (maybe a diving bug?)- such an interesting typing, too bad Masquerain back to Bug/Flying -Volbeat/Illumise- I loved their designs but they need some more stats. -Absol- something with more Speed please? -Corsola- love the design but again, stats aren't strong enough -Banette- something to balance Duskull having another evolution -Carnivine- always felt it lacked something. Maybe a Grass/Dark with a new Insectivore ability that absorbs Bug moves? :p -Pachirisu- always thought of a flying squirrel before Emolga came in. Still I wish it had something with better stats. Same with Plusle/Minun but not sure what they could be (Electric/Fighting?) -Kricketune -Lumineon |
Maractus is my second favourite pokemon, its such a cutie. But unfourtanatley its stats are mediocre at best. I would love it if Maractus got the Roselia treatment, a prevo and an evolution. But I dont want them to make the evolution horrible.
As for other generation pokemon what about Mawille. Plenty of potential for an evolution there. And make it dark type. |
I'm thinking all those no evolution line Pokemon you get near the end of the game need a pre-evolution to make them more available and so that people might consider adding them to their team since most people have their team sorted out by that point of the game.

Other Unova Pokemon I'd like to see expanded on is probably Audino, it seems perfect for a pre-evo but an evo would work too. Zebstika, Liepard or Swanna also need some sort of evo or split evo in my opinon. Zoroark would also be cool to see a split evo, but doesn't actually need it (I can just imagine it looking amazing) I'd also be interested to see some sort of Shaymin/Giratina style different form thing going on with Victini, but considering it's a legendary I'd be fine if there wasn't :3 In terms of other generations, I've always wanted Corsola and Luvdisc to be expanded on and I would love an Absol pre-evo, though I think I might be alone with that! Seviper and Zangoose would be good if they got an pre-evo/evo together, since they have a rivalry... And Dunsparce or Qwilfish need something! Anything! Ramble over! |
By looking at Emolga's stats I think it could use an evolved form and/or a pre evolved form, much like Pikachu.

I was going to say Maractus, but then I realized it would just be a Cacturne with flowers. A pre-evolution of Sigilyph would be nice, seeing that if I were to be in the game, I would freak out if a pokemon like that were to hatch out of an egg xD Also, what about Alomomola? I want to put a Luvdisc reference in there somewhere but generation 5 is a complete reboot. So that's a no-go.
Oh mi gee, Cryogonal! I would love for it to have a pre-evolution! A baby snowflake :3 And I feel like that Bisharp should have an evolution, I know it's out of the blue but still, just think of how awesome it would be xD |
I would love to see a Basculin and a Deerling evolution. I love the season idea, but I think there should be a pre-evolution form.
