I always evolve mine because 1. It's exciting and 2. I see it as a "natural" pokemon process.

Before I beat the Elites I evolve them but after that when I start to train for battling buddies I hold off on it because it is faster for training purposes.
Some wisdom that I have stumbled across or figured out would go great here... Too bad I just live life to have fun with friends and family. I don't worry about fights or money, I just live. No wisdom there just a way to get by.

Hmm... Depends. THe pokemons that I spend a great deal of time and training on, I don't evolve until later. But the others that I have a lesser interest in than yeah i do.
Don't expect much from me.

Does anybody really LIKE ludicolo? I mean, I don't know its stats, but that thing is pretty damn ugly.
In fact, from that evolution chain, I'd take Lotad. But I don't really like them, in particular.

Also, this seemed pretty pointless of a post for post number 666.
Derp.

The only reason i would not let my pokemon evolve is because either im trying to teach it a powerful move early, or just because that pokemon just happend to be one of my favorites.

I like Ludicolo, Frenchfry. I actually like how he looks as well.

I don't know if I've said this, but if the pokemon I'm training learns the same moves regardless of evolution, I'll go ahead and let it evolve. If I have good TMs, I'll give it those so it isn't held back by weak moves.

If it learns moves at one stage that it doesn't learn at another, I'll act accordingly.

I usually let them evolve, except once on accident I forgot I gave my tailow an everstone, and he didn't evolve when it was supposed to.  I thought it was a glitch and the guidebook I got was wrong.

THIS.
This is the only non evolution I do. I let everyone else evolve whenever. I will sometimes delay evolution if I need a pre evolution move, but otherwise I'm too lazy to keep preventing it.

I usually let pokemon evolve, for the simple reason of making them stronger. However, sometimes it is best to prevent evolution, in the case of the Evolution Stone in b/w (yes, capitals are needed to distinguish it from evolutionary stones). A boost in defense and sp defense by 50% is very handy for a number of pre-evolutions, sometimes making them more powerful defensively than their fully-evolved counterparts. Chansey, rhydon and porygon-2 are some of these. In rhydon's case, while not carrying as much attacking power as rhyperior, the Evolution Stone and sanstorm support DOUBLES its special defense (and increases that crazy physical defense stat to 150%)
Everyone has the right to be stupid once and a while, but mate, you're abusing it.

Yes. I am that lazy. And I also find it annoying to have to press the B button every level. I understand that its important for it to try and evolve with every level, but I'm just a lazy snorlax. xD
