4th Gen Lyra said Marill evolved... but it didn't?

[-Jake]

So earlier I decided to random call Lyra (I don't know why, just for kicks. 0__o), and she started exclaiming how her Marill evolved. So I went to New Bark Town and went to her house and she was there still with her Marill (not Azumarill).
Has this happened to anything else? And will her Marill ever evolve?

 

[Panfisha]

Hey, yeah! She lied to me too!
The only explanation for this could be:
1.) She called as it was evolving, but stopped it.
2.) She blatantly lied, perhaps because she was jealous of YOUR pokemon all evolving.

I wondered if this had happened to anyone else, but me. A couple days ago, I was training outside of Goldenrod City, when Lyra called me instead. She went on saying how her Marill had evolved as well. It wasn't until I decided to go to the Underground in Goldenrod where I bumped into her once more. Expecting to see Azumarill following her, to my surprise it was still a Marill.

My facial expression to that ... O_O; Is she sure that thing evolved?

Anyway, it's funny how that turned out. I've read around that she just catches more Marills to follow her around. XD Not sure why, and if it's all true, but meh whatever floats his/her boat - as the male pseudo-rival does the same thing.

 

[awsomedude30]

maybe she has 2 marills?
anyway yea she said that to me too and i looked for her and i was like wtf?

 

[Taichi]

Rearrange her name and what do you get? Lyar. lol
That hasn't happened to me yet, but sounds hilarious.

 

[Calder]

She has 6 Marill-Families all trained from Azurill Eggs she received from her Grandfather the Day Care Man, Thats why she has so many and she was talking about one of the others...

 

[RockmanEXE]

She told me this as well. But I have yet to see the Azumarill.

 

[iRawr]

Nah she hasn't told me this yet but when she does i'm gonna lol so hard :3

 

[LethalTexture]

Unless she is referring to events before the narrative of the game begins when her Azurill evolved?

 

[Heart's Soul]

I wondered that, Lyra- you're a Lyar. You have a $*#!! Marill.

 

[SCV058]

It happens a lot. I mean in Emerald, if you stand in the old ladies house that heals you, call your rival, she/ he will say that she/ he is in that house, when clearly they are not. Nintendo doesn't expect kids to go check their rival every time you call them xD.

 

[mikey]

I got that call yesterday. Same thing happened to me, it's still a Marill.

 

[encas]

Odd. This hasn't happened to me yet, but I'm sure it will. The only NPCs that call me are the random trainers, not Ethan/Lyra. ;__;

Nonetheless, this reminds me of that one trainer in Cinnabar Island in the original R/B who, when traded a Raichu, will claim that it evolved. That's what I immediately thought when I first read some of these responses.

 

[Heart's Soul]

The weird guy from Cinnabar either knows NOTHING about Pokemon, or, more likely, he lied to make you envious.

 

[Yoak]

They guy in cinnabar when you trade a pikachu? I'm pretty sure it was a Pikachu because I remember this "Cheat" to get a green pikachu that involved him. It worked half the way. He tells you it ran off. It's supposed to be in the powerpoint somewhere, but I can't find it.

 

[RYOUKI]

Lol, that was just hilarious. Lyra, you Lyar. That never happened to me, but I hope it does. The only thing Lyra told me that was remotely funny was that her Marill has gain weight. Lol.

 

[Sydian]

Sounds exciting. I've probably gotten this call a bunch, I just couldn't read any of it. XD

 

[Butterfree-Charizard]

She has said that to me like three times, that and that it smelled like a dust mop and needed bath.

Lyra has called me to tell me that her Marill was evolving, TWICE. I'm still confused.

That's because the text for English R/B was taken from Japanese Blue, where you gave the trainer a Graveler or something. They forgot to change it.
