[Legends: Arceus] evolving alpha pokemon

They retain their size so depending on which species you catch and their evolutionary state (in this example i'll use Alpha Buizel) if you catch an Alpha Buizel it'll be the largest size that it can be for the Pokemon Buizel, it'll retain the large factor, however I am not sure if after evolution it's size will still be the max it can be as an evolve Alpha Floatzel. There aren't any stat differences between alpha pokemon or regular pokemon and they evolve as normal as well. Alpha Pokemon do start out with 1 move that they can normally only learn through move tutors, so there is that bonus. Alpha Pokemon also start with more Effort Values than their regular counterparts, with some stats having the potential to be up to 3 effort levels starting out.

So long story short, nothing really happens persay, you start with a move that is typically only taught via move tutor when you catch an alpha, it doesn't have any kind of stat value differences from the base pokemon but it can have up to 3 effort levels with zero effort beyond catching the alpha in question. Also, they're always decently higher level than their normal counterparts in the same area (if they can be encountered non-alpha like Buizel for example)
