What is evolve?

So I am playing Ironclad consistently to learn the game. I was wondering what does the evolve card do? Basically, what is the status card? I have never seen one of them.

Status cards are typically obtained by some specific enemies that temporarily add these cards to your deck, typically by dropping them into your discard pile. Ironclad can also create these by himself. They are all removed at the end of combat.

These are daze, which automatically removes themselves if you have them in your hand at the end of turn
Wound, which is just unplayable junk
Burn, which is just like a wound except you take 2 damage at the end of the turn
Slimed, which can be removed by paying 1 energy.

If you have Evolve in play, you will draw one (or two if upgraded) card(s) whenever you draw one of these - essentially allowing you to still have a hand with cards you can actually use even when drawing this junk.

Oh, thanks for information.

It's also worth pointing out that while they are similar, Status cards are not Curses. And since Evolve only mentions Statuses, it will not draw extra cards when you draw Injury, Decay, Regret, Pain, or Clumsy. Some people miss the wording or misunderstand the categorization of cards.
