The new Evolution System

[Gilver Redgrave]

Kinda makes Evolving pointless.

Why would i evolve my Coromon when it gets weaker ? No seriously some Trait Abilitys are so broken that Evolving is a stupid move too make.

For example Slitherpin and Glacikid. Evolve them or make your enemys tremble in fear to ever use a contact move on you because it takes 35%-50% HP away ? Not a hard decision right ?

What about Lunapup ? Evolve or use Twilight and increase crit by 2 stages and become IMMUNE against crits yourself ? Also not a very hard choice. Or the Menacing Trait. Reduce attack by 2 stages and make them use 3 more AP.

Bittybolt ? Zealous + Bold Bomb = GG. Increased costs mean nothing when you deplete everything anyways. And if you reach 60 SP (which you will on purpose) that results in 180 dmg + 40% extra from Zealot. Thats 252 Power not even including possible type weakness.

The downsides of not evolving are way too neglectable and the bonuses too high. Should have been tested more before relesing tbh.

The traits get stronger but the stats are still lower than a fully evolved coromon, some fully evolved coromon get outclassed by their first stage while others dont and its fine tbh, not all traits are good so sometime its just better to use a full stage

Stats in Coromon dont matter as much as in other taming games because of the potential system. Also Coromon that dont evolve DONT lose all the evolution stats. You still get the biggest part of points so its not like you lose much.

Sure there are some Coromon that dont have that overpowerd traits but the ones that do make evolving pointless. And the Coromon that aint that great aint used that much anyways. Let alone PvP unless you wanna lose on purpose.

at the end of the day it makes it so all coromons are useable in PVE, so I think thats a good thing

if you want the strong and cool looking coromon, evolve it
if you want your little guy to stay cool, dont and you'll be just fine

Thats a fun way to allow people to make their teams how they want

no, because you were forced to evolve your coromons and couldnt cancel the evolution.

Ahh you were talking pre evolution lines.

Just remove Trait Upgrades then. As i said every Coromon is useable in PvE. No need for Traits that make Pre-Evolutions stronger then the fully evolved forms. And we havent even touched PvP yet. ;)

Its like you're refusing to understand the other guys point that having pre-evolutions be viable, and even in SOME circumstances be better than their evolutions is not a bad thing.

You seem to have a very pokemon oriented mindset where evolution should ALWAYS be stronger, and Coromon is not that kind of game. You can absolutely evolve every time if you want, or you can keep your cute guys. Going all in on Bittybolt with Zealous++ and bolt bomb is fair enough if you want to do a one shot trade, since bittybolt wont have enough meat on its bones to survive the crack back when you need to rest and restore your SP. Or you could evolve it, and Toravolt will survive a hit and get off a second attack.
102*1.40(143) for bittybolt vs 226*1.20(271) for Toravolt, which in fairness to your point doesn't include potential boosts which would bring it closer, but as soon as Toravolt uses the second attack its going to out damage Bittybolt every single time.

Idk, I'm kind of new to the game and my 2 cents probably doesn't matter here, but I'm dropping it anyway. I caught an armado that was potent, he was my first potent guy so I was really excited to have him. He even had a buffed passive trait. But when I evolved him he lost his buff to his passive trait, and that was a big bummer. In my opinion I shouldn't be punished for evolving my guys just for the sake of keeping earlier evolutionary stages more viable. Not a fan of that mechanic one bit.

If fully evolved coromon were able to have ++ traits, there wouldnt be any point in the mechanic, fully evolved coromons dont need ++ traits, so its not being "punished"

You can always devolve your guy. It's a situational thing. Some Coromon are better off in their first form with their buffed traits while others are stronger in their final stage. Evolving gives them a hefty stat boost.

if you devolve your guy, can they still evolve back after leveling up?

yes, you can re-evolve them manually through the summary

Why would you use a weaker form?

There is an item that increases the level of your Coromon's trait if you have them hold it.
