    Have you noticed that like, almost every pokemon in the game doesn't reach it's final form until sometime in the 40s? It's kinda annoying for me sometimes. What do you think about it?
     
    It depends. If I'm just trying to evolve it for the Pokedex it's annoying, but if I'm actually using it, I like it a lot. It gives me something to look forward to, instead of just dozens of levels of endless grinding with no reward in sight.
     
    I haven't got around to buying Black or White yet, But that sounds nice in my opinion, Its kind of boring when your Pokemon fully evolve at low levels, then it leaves you with no excitement ;P.
     
    Meh, usually the later a pokemon reaches it's evolution, the stronger it becomes.
     
    Yeah but then you get kidna bored waiting for stuff to evolve for soooo looong. But whatever, it's not too bad I guess. Especially right now, with all the other new stuff to absorb.

    I prefer a bit of boredom in leveling at the beginning of the game, when there's so much other stuff to keep you busy that you haven't tried yet, than closer to the end when your Pokemon is 40 and you know you have at least 30 more boring levels with no change in sight for your Pokemon, and most of the plot is done.
     
    take advantage of it by using the eviolitie stone...
     
    Meh, usually the later a pokemon reaches it's evolution, the stronger it becomes.

    Yeah, take Volcarona for example. Larvesta doesn't evolve till lvl 59! Volcarona is a beaaaaaaast though!
     
    Don't forget Hydreigon! It has a pretty late evolution, but it's awesome.
    Also, I'm starting to like waiting for the awesome Pokemon to level up and evolve. :D
     
    But, I can say. I was upset when my Tepig hit 16 and didn't evolve. I was all.

    "...-rage- D:<<<<< DID I PRESS B???"
     
    I've noticed it for awhile. Most of the Pokémon are two-lined evos I believe, but I don't see how it has to be all the way at the 40's. ):
     
    i dont actually mind it just because the longer it takes to evolve the stronger the pokemon is (most of the time) plus it adds more of a challange to take the extra time to evolve it
     
    I think it's good because it makes me want to train them to see what their fully evolved form is like.
     
    It annoys me to NO end, just look at all these who evolve late:

    Vanilite -> Level 37: Vanilish -> Level 47: Vanilluxe
    Deino -> Level 50: Zweilous -> Level 64: Hydreigon
    Rufflet/Vullaby -> Level 54: Braviary/Mandibuzz
    Larvesta -> Level 59: Volcanora
    Mienfoo -> Level 50: Mienshao
    Sandile -> Level 39: Krokorok -> Level 40: Krookodile
    Scraggy -> Level 39: Scrafty
    Tirtouga/Archen -> Level 37: Carracosta/Archeops
    Gothorita/Duosion -> Level 41: Gothitelle/Reuniclus
    Foongus -> Level 39: Amoongus
    Frillish -> Level 40: Jellicent
    Ferroseed -> Level 40: Ferrothorn
    Klink -> Level 38: Klang -> Level 49: Klinklang
    Tynamo -> Level 38: Eelektrik
    Elgym -> Level 42: Beheeyem
    Litwick -> Level 41: Lampent
    Axew -> Level 38: Fraxure -> Level 48: Haxorus
    Golett -> Level 43: Golurk
    Pawniard -> Level 52: Bisharp

    They're all in the high 30's to early 60's range. That would be fine, though the forms should be more spread out. For lines with 3 Pokémon in it, they should evolve in the teens or 20's, not in the high 30's and then again in the late 40's. That's too bunched out and IMO it should be more spread out.
     
    They do evolve quite late this time around, and although it does bother me in some cases (like when I'm doing a challenge or I just need to evolve the Pokemon for the Pokedex), I usually don't consider it that much of a problem. It does add more of a challenge to the game, which is always a nice touch. I'm just not quite used to the higher leveled evolutions yet. :3
     
    It bothers me a tad.
    Probably because I'm not too good with training my pokemon — I usually just let them gain experience by letting them battle against trainers. Like, ONLY trainers. Gym trainers, the ones that you have to battle in order to get by, etc.

    Maybe I shouldn't do that.
