IVs are factored into CP already.

E.g. you'll never get a CP3500 Dragonite if yours doesn't have 100% perfect IVs.

Every Pokémon has different base stats.

CP is (Attack * Defense0.5 * Stamina0.5 / 10) rounded down.

Where:
Attack = (BaseAttack + AttackIV) * TotalCpMultiplier
Defense = (BaseDefense + DefenseIV) * TotalCpMultiplier
Stamina = (BaseStamina + StaminaIV) * TotalCpMultiplier

TotalCpMultiplier varies per Pokémon level.

E.g. you'll never get a CP3000 Alakazam due to base stats (specifically caps at CP1813 at level 40 with perfect IVs).

CP upon evolution determined based on the Pokémon's level (read: Pokémon's level, not player's level). A level 20 Magikarp (CP150 with perfect IVs) will evolve into a level 20 Gyarados (CP1536 Gyarados with perfect IVs). No more, no less.

There is no mystery here.

Pokemon have a level (which can be increased by 0.5 by powering it up until you reach your trainer level + 1.5) and they have IVs. The IVs cannot be changed in any way.

So if you are, lets say, level 25, and you have 10 Snorlax, and you power them all up until the power up button turns grey, which means they are now all exactly level 26.5, the one with the highest IVs will have the best values.

Evolving does not change the pokemon level or the IVs.

The best pokemon have the best IVs combined with a good moveset. If the pokemon is weak because the level is low, that is something you can fix with candy and stardust by powering it up. Bad IVs and bad movesets cannot be fixed.

I WANT it again to continue to play
 
You aren't the only person playing this game, the ticket service is having a hard time dealing with all the reports and people who used cheats such as the one you used without knowing the risks. It might take some weeks, if you haven't received a message back within 3 weeks then I would suggest you to send another message.

Good luck with getting your account back. I'm sure you learned your lesson with cheating.
 
This guy is joking right?
It was always pretty clear that GPS spoofing was going to be against the rules.
If you can make a new account and actually the rules this time, you can still have plenty of fun doing things the hard way and actually walking out in the real world

There is no way you are getting it back because you cheated. A lot. As a matter of principle such an account should never be unbanned.

As a general rule, if you get an unfair advantage over other players, you should suspect cheating. If you need third party hacks to hack the game in order to get the unfair advantage, its cheating for sure.

Its basically the same for all games.

EDIT: And your tickets robarbly are being actively ignored. They read them, they delete them.

Sorry buddy, but as a rule of thumb, "ignorance of the law is no excuse." And yes, using fake coordinates is listed as prohibited. https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221993967 + https://www.nianticlabs.com/terms/pokemongo/en

You may be able to make a brand new PokeGo account, but that is tricky since you can only use Pokemon Trainer Club accounts (which I know nothing about) or Google Plus account (and I have read that it is against Google's terms of service to have more than one personal account).
 
I told Pidgeycalc I have 89 pidgey candies
and it outputs directions: evolve 8 pidgeys
and evolution costs 12 each
and Pidgeycalc is... a CALCUlator. what am i missing here

Similarly, its directions read "evolve 3 Rattata" when I told it I only have 73 Candy.

You don't get candy for evolving, do you? That seems backwards, since it costs candy to do it.
