- It seems that evolution is off the books for Bunnelby (Diggersby being painted as criminal in XY012) and Inkay (Preview of Malamar ep, and Jame's track record of innocent Pokemon).
- Fletchling seems almost certain to evolve, perhaps just as soon as it gets a focus episode or two.
- Froakie, Chespin and Fennekin are still too early to call. Froakie's reserved tough-guy facade certainly fits with its evolutionary tree, and it could be patterned after Sceptile and pull off a full evolution. I hear Delphox is scheduled for an appearance sometime soon, so perhaps Fennekin won't go that far, but I can see it reaching Blaixen at a distant point (Serena's not doing much battling at the moment). Chespin's gluttony could be an indicator that it'll reach Quilladin status, and a Chesnaught doesn't seem beyond Clemont's ability to handle.
I am not so sure about Froakie. Buizel has the same type of attitude, and it remains a Buizel. Treecko faces Grovyle before, and it had evolve all the way, so it is difficult to sense the future of the starters in the anime this time.
