I'm terribly sorry if this has been discussed before (I'm new here), but I had a question about Pokemon evolutions.
I understand how level-based evolutions take place in the wild-- the Pokempn simply battles, hunts, defends itself, etc. until it evolves.
Other forms of evolution make sense, too. Happiness, knowing a certain move, being in a certain area-- all of those conditions could theoretically be met in the wild.
But what about more complex evolutions? Trade evolutions, for example. How does a wild Kadabra evolve? Can it evolve? The games would suggest that it cannot, since it would never be traded, of course. Even more difficult to explain would be trade evolutions while holding a specific item, like a Metal Coat for example.
So, what are your thoughts on this? Please discuss.
(Again, I'm very sorry if this topic has already been brought up).
