      IKR! Guess he was the exception to that rule. I’m okay with that because his evolution was cute with him tearing up as he looks back at Kangaskhan and says “Pikachu” right before he evolved. It’s like he knew it was about to happen.

      @Shubham I always pictured a Mega Bisharp similar to either Shredder from TMNT or Savitar from Flash. Bisharp is already an excellent competitive Pokemon with a great 125 attack and 100 defense, but it's Sp. Def and Speed of 70 could definitely get an increase with a Mega.

      @@xxeex_xaxex6317 I agree. In the Black and White anime, Georgia’s was I think the only Bisharp we saw (or at the very least, knew the most), and it was cool, albeit kinda ha limited screen time. Also, the voice for it in the English dub was a bit dry, whereas with XYZ, it sounds like a serious and determined assassin (something you should expect from a Dark-Type with blades everywhere).

    I'd say my top 3 evolution moments are...
    3rd - Grovyle into Sceptile.
    I found it entertaining seeing Grovyle go Simp-Mode for a Meganium, but got *denied*. But the evolution set up the mini arc to develop Sceptile further.
    2nd - Roggenrola into Boldore
    The battle with Clay was good, and seeing Roggenrola evolve was epic, the low, almost ominous music as it happen, and the visuals alone was epic. I'd dare say it's the best evolution from an animation and spectacle perspective.
    1st - Monferno into Infernape.
    Yes, I'm biased because Infernape is my favourite Pokemon, and Chimchar into Monferno did have a bit more substance behind it in a narrative perspective... but seeing Monferno, under Blaze's power, control itself long enough to save Pikachu, Piplup, Empoleon and even Paul's Electabuzz was cool, and the evolution added to the moment. And the fact Paul watched the Pokemon he abandoned fully evolve before his eyes to rescue the Pokemon that won Paul their first full battle... It was just cool.

    I was able to guess the number 1 slot. Torracat evolving after beating Kukui’s Incineroar was such a great moment for me and caught me off guard when the episode came out. I think another thing people need to realize about Ash “not evolving his Pokemon” is that he usually gives his Pokemon the choice on whether they want to or not. Example: Pikachu. Ash doesn’t evolve Pikachu because that’s not what Pikachu wants, also it’s the mascot but in universe, Pikachu just doesn’t want to evolve.

      @narxmagee727 3 года назад +3

      Yeah I think it was done perfectly. Sure it could've just evolved mid battle and we could have an Incineroar ditto but I think Torracat wanting to waiting to defeat Incineroar as a Torracat only spoke volumes to the importance of this battle for it. It wanted to win as a Torracat and I think that's epic. On the topic of the misconception even if evolution never comes up like with Buizel then what does it matter sometimes. Ash still uses them to their fullest and it's not like he can just tell a Pokemon to evolve. Evolution in the anime is spontaneous and unpredictable. Sometimes Pokemon don't evolve and that's okay because they're still powerful.

    Honorable mentions to Pikachu, Donphan, Talonflame, Gliscor and Noivern!
    10. Sceptile (after Hoenn League I didn't think they would let Grovyle evolve but I'm glad they did)
    9. Charizard (Funny moment, nice to get to know where the Togepi egg came from, iconic)
    8. Quilava (after Johto I didn't think they would let Cyndaquil evolve but it deserved it really bad imo)
    7. Krookodile (Just like you said, iconic to win and take the spot as strongest Unova pokémon of Ash)
    6. Melmetal (Funny but also really cool to see how they would implement it and fully evolved a real mythical)
    5. Sirfetch'd (Great little arc, real champion redemption for Farfetch'd and nicely paced, nice to see Wikstrom)
    4. Incineroar (Great final for it's development, finally beating it's master & evolving, sad to didn't see it in action after league)
    3. Lucario (The moment I was waiting for from M08 onwards, it was a long time but it finally happened in what a way!)
    2. Lycanroc (This reminds me of my dog that sadly passed away on December 5th just after SM099 who was a Beagle)
    1. Greninja (My favorite pokémon and the moment the first evolution I saw in the anime, also it was the most hyped moment for me because (Ash-)Greninja is my favorite pokémon, Ash-Greninja reached even bigger heights after this..)

At least Torracat and Lycanroc took their training way more seriously and their victories over their rivals had more meaning and impact behind them. It didn't take the cursed stone cos it was scared or disinterested in evolving so u can't say it doesn't want to evolve, and the fact that ash had a fully evolved team in Kalos makes this even more frustrating. What was the point of even giving ash a fully evolved team once and not keeping that up in every series since? At least journeys took notes but Alola?

    My favorite evolution moment is definitely Chimchar into Monferno, because of the reasons you described. And it's not even close tbh. The evolution happens in a battle against Paul which would already just work on its own, but the moment also works in opposing Paul's training methods as Chimchar's ex-trainer who couldn't bring out his potential. Ash and Chimchar's bond, Chimchar's willingness to respond to Ash's call to help him win the battle in this do or die, 1 versus 4 moment, it's all something he never had with Paul and why he only evolved under Ash's ownership.

    We need Incineroar in Journeys to show how tanked up it is since it's evolved, to be fair it's probably one of ash's top 5 strongest Pokémon now just sitting there getting fat at kukui's lol

    Ashs Talonflame had two of my favorite evolutions. Both are worthy on being on this list but I'm with one

    What makes the torrocat evolution all the more memorable is that when it roars while evolving, it's voice changes from a normal cat cry to a beast roar(it's only in the dub not in the japanese)
