What Pokemon do you feel need an evolution? There are still quite a few Pokemon that don't evolve whatsoever and a few that evolve only once. I feel like some of the single evolution Pokemon are fine. Can't really see them adding an evolution or pre-evolution for Ekans and Arbok. But for most of the non-evolving Pokemon I feel that they need something to help them out. So many were gimmicks (Farfetch'd) or were paired with another that evolved (Pinsir and Scyther). Something like Ditto is fine as is if you ask me.
Pinsir. I would really love to see this thing come back into the lime light. It's such an awesome looking Pokemon to begin that it deserves some love. It's so often forgotten and left behind, while it's brother Scyther was given Scizor in Generation II. Give them pinchers some love!
Farfetch'd would also be nice to see evolve. It started out as a gimmick with the Leek and for just being rare (only one available in the original games). It's also haunted by horrible stats. If you're going to be a stand alone Pokemon, at least give it some stats to justify it.
Kinda weird, but if there were a Pokemon that tied Tauros and Miltank together that would be cool. Both can only be found in a single gender and they are both bovines. It would make sense that maybe they'd share the same Baby Pokemon? And that's hard for me to say as I often dislike baby forms. But just something to add to thier unexplained connection.
Another two would be Dunsparce and Qwilfish. I love Dunsparce to death just for being such a bizarre yet interesting Pokemon. It's just that it falls under the whole gimmick thing like for most non evolving Pokemon and doesn't serve a purpose. I'd be fine if it didn't since it's so awesome as it. Then Qwilfish....oh Qwilfish, what was your purpose? Farfetch'd is rare and has a Leek, Shuckle has insane Defense stats, and Lapras has good stats but you....what are you? You aren't special, you aren't rare, you don't have a story, and you aren't strong. You are just a Puffer fish.
What do you think, are there any Pokemon you'd like to see Evolve?

I agree that Farfetch'd and Pinsir are desperately in need of something. I'd also love to see something linking both Tauros and Miltank. That would be awesome. Qwilfish, yes. That is in desperate need of something as well. I don't know anyone who actually uses one. They are actually unbelievably pointless. What were they thinking putting that thing in alone?
Although at the same time, I'm quite scared of what they'll come with next. The evolutions for earlier Pokémon made in Generation IV were ridiculously stupid. Rhyperior, Magnezone, Tangrowth, Yanmega, Probopass, Mismagius, Ambipom, Lickilicky, Glaceon, Leafeon, Honchkrow, Magmortar, etc. Ewww. They were terrible! Have they really stooped that low? The only one I thought looked even relatively okay was Weavile. Rhydon has been ruined as far as I can see. Rhyperior is one the ugliest Pokémon I've ever seen. They should have just made new Pokémon, instead wrecking the old. They could have done a lot better.
Sure, a lot of those Pokémon needed something but come on. They were all so... unimaginative... I suppose, then again, I don't actually have to use any of the Pokémon either. That's my thoughts/rant on the matter anyway.

I agree with most of the ones mentioned already. Farfetch'd particularly, that poor duck just has no love it would seem. If he were to evolve perhaps a Samurai bird Fighting/Flying type evolution would be a good route to go down. Would certainly look good. Dunsparce really needs an evolution. I remember seeing some fanart of a conceptual evolution for him and it was dragon like. Perhaps they should do that. I certainly wouldn't mind. ;D Out of all the Pokemon, I would truly love to see Weezing get an evolved final form. Sure he's usable as he is now but I sometimes dream of a Poison/Dark evolved form calling Choaking with Levitate. He'd be the god of all tanks. Nothing else really springs to mind at the moment. Banette could do with one I suppose. I also think some Pokemon, like Nidoking for instance, need their base stats moved up entirely let alone new evolutions. Some of them are just poor. ACK! Sorry to hear you think they look terrible, Andrew. I must admit, they're bulky which is just about their only real fault in my eyes but they have grown on me tremendously. Magmortar's a huge improvement over Buttface. Erm, I mean Magmar. And I quite like Rhyperior. Although I do admit Rhydon has a much better, sleeker design. Probopass and Lickilicky i'm not going to defend though.

I agree, Farfetch'd/Dunsparce/Tauros/Pinsir/Quilfish need evolutions! Lickilicky I think is the worst idea ... ever.

I can't remember where I saw it, but I saw evolutions for Farfetch'd and Delibird. They were fake, I'm sure they even it but still. I never thought about Delibird, but the evolution was the coolest thing since Pidgeot! The Farfetch'd one was pretty good too. It was a little bit too similar though. They really looked official. I'd be delighted if official evolutions like them were made.

I'm pretty sure i've seen the exact same images you've seen Andrew. These ones? I must admit, I was taken in slightly by the thumbnail when I first saw it but upon closer inspection the supposed magazine design it came from was so amateur it really let the rest of the hoax down. I am actually AMAZED to just how well people can replicate Ken Sugimori's art these days. While it's nice people are so talented I just wish they'd stop making fake Pokemon full stop. I've seen some fake Pokemon designs people have thought up and they are really exciting! Problem is though, you can bet your bottom pound that now someone's come up with that idea Gamefreak/Nintendo will stray as far away from that design as possible. Just wish people would realise that and stop inhibiting the possible outcomes of new Pokemon in the next generation.

They're the ones, Joe. Thanks for that. I think they look awesome. I knew they were fake before I saw them, but they're extremely well done. If I hadn't been told, they could've fooled me. I'm pretty amazed too. How anyone can get them that perfect is scary. Yeah, I really don't like fake Pokémon. They're probably fun to create and all but I agree, if they make a design, Game Freak won't make one or else they'll come with something entirely different.

They're probably fun to create and all but I agree, if they make a design, Game Freak won't make one or else they'll come with something entirely different. Thankfully the amount of species in reality is tremendous and I think Gamefreak won't be short for newer evolutions so i'll suppose we'll just have to sit tight and see what they have in store. Hah, it's like being a kid at Christmas again! i actually kind of like mismagius lol but a lot of the others are really ugly maybe another for glameow since purugly is... just ugly lol. another elegant one would be nice or something :3 also plusle and minun maybe, but i don't know what they could be lol. but even if they did evolve i'd probably keep them in their cute forms lol. Mismagius is awesome. I know this sounds pretty lame by often consider Mismagius, Gengar's partner or something due to similar design elements. I think they make a good pair. YES! THAT IS DEFINITE. Pokemon games need more cat Pokemon. Poor Purugly though. Despite being pretty ugly, I do love it's cry. I keep repeatedly tapping it's cry in the Pokedex just for a chuckle.
This is also a bit of a shameless plug but i've opened up some art topics in the Art/Design board on this forum and one of them is a Fake Pokemon topic. Of course this is pertinent to the topic discussed in this thread as it covers fake evolutions. So once i've bulked it up with some images feel free to gander.
