According to research done by the Silph Road research group, and later confirmed by research of several other private Pokémon Trainers, moves that Pokémon learn when evolving in Pokémon GO are completely random.
There were numerous rumors and speculation in the past on what influences moves players get when evolving. The “evolution moveset” is one of the hottest topics in the Pokémon GO community, as it has potential to ruin or empower any Pokémon you obtain.
Finally, after 4 months of debate and speculation, it is finally clear: moves that Pokémon learn while evolving in Pokémon GO are completely random!
Researching more than 10,000 evolutions
According to The Silph Road, over 10,000 evolutions were captured over the course of the study. The study took into account several factors by Silph Road researchers: moves before evolving, appraisal (IV), stardust and evolved movesets.
The study has come to two major conclusions:
1: No evidence was found of correlation between following factors and evolved movesets.
Factor Examined
|
Correlation Found?
|
|---|---|
Pre-evolution Quick Move | No |
Pre-evolution Charge Move | No |
| Trainer’s Team | No |
The Pokemon’s Level (approximated using Stardust power-up cost) | No |
| Pokemon Nicknamed at time of evolution | No |
Lucky Egg activated during evolution | No |
| Overall Appraisal rating | No |
| Highest IV category(ies) (Attack, Defense, or Stamina) | No |
| Pokemon has perfect IVs in Attack, Defense, or Stamina (Separately) | No |
| Whether the Pokemon has any perfect IV | No |
| Whether the Pokemon has all perfect IVs | No |
2: Movesets are evenly, randomly distributed post-evolution
As you can imagine, if a species has 3 possible post-evolution charge moves, each move has a 33.3% chance of being the Pokemon’s new move. There is no magic myth that connects movesets with stats, or IV, or appraisal, or naming. In general, every combination has the same chance every time.
Without going too deep into uncharted statistics territory, the following graph illustrates frequency of obtaining moves after evolving. As you can see, the graph is uniform and there are no outlying values, meaning it is completely random.
