One of the best things about Pokemon is their evolution mechanic. In the game, it is triggered by accumulating enough EXP when battling. In the anime, it’s by plot armor. But regardless, when a Pokemon evolves, it’s a marvelous scene.
And a Pokemon’s evolution is such an improvement over its baby form, that we just can help but fawn over them! In fact, some pokemon have 2 stages of evolution that are so pretty that we Pokemon trainers can help but be torn between canceling their evolution or letting them go on.
In fact, the evolution mechanic is so great, it’s a staple of the franchise. Now, imagine taking the signature mechanic of the famous game, and integrating that into another franchise.
Let online artist Crash Bandicoot beautifully answers the question: What if cartoon characters also evolve like they are in Pokeverse? Here are 19 famous cartoon characters reimagined as Pokemon evolutions, just for you.
#1 Mickey

One of the best final evolutions in our lists, Mickey’s final form looks like he can do some serious damage with his Fighting moves. Although his baby form can be… a little better-fitted to his type.
#2 Minnie Mouse

Another sweet-looking baby form that has a scary final evolution. Minificent seems like she has a lot of nasty Ghost and Dark-type moves that can scare and scar her opponents into a week-long stay in the Pokemon center.
#3 Wall-E

The robotic theme is rarely explored in Pokemon, but when done right, it looks awesome. Like this reimagining of Wall-E into Wall-Z. The kaiju appearance looks great but seems more like it belongs on Transformers-verse than the Poke-verse.
#4 Eve

The highly-advanced robot looks like she fits right into the Pokemon world. But her final evolution looks like it has such high Speed that it can Flash Canon the whole opponent team onto oblivion.
#5 Winnie the Pooh

The plumb-looking Winnie the Pooh looks as sweet as honey as a baby Pokemon, but his final evolution is anything but! If anything, he looks very slender and hip, and his name reflects that: Skinny the Pooh.
#6 Eeyore

Taking Eeyore as the middle evolution, his baby evolution is just an adorable sleeping baby. His final evolution just takes his sad personality to the highest level. And aptly named too!
#7 Owl

Another sweet-looking baby form, Owl just slowly looks like a wise, sage and battle-harden Pokemon in his final evolution. And aptly named Eyebrowls to match his massive eyebrows!
#8 Piglet

We expect Piglet to be elegant looking in his final form. Instead, he looks like a tank that can take massive boots. Still very good though.
#9 Tigger

Tigger bouncy tail makes him fit right in as a Pokemon, to the point that he might look like he has a Jolly nature. But his final evolution seems to grow out of that. Maybe his nature changes as well?
#10 Rabbit

The grouchy Rabbit seems as grumpy as ever in his baby form, but his final evolution takes it to a whole other level! The crazy eyes say it all: He’s ready for battle! And look at those claws, his Fury Swipe seems like it guarantees to Crit!
#11 Bolt

Taking Bolt as the middle evolution, the baby Bolt looks pretty meh, but his final evolution looks majestic. And ready to fire 10,000 volts of lightning at you.
#12 Randall

Randall is probably one of the most Pokemon-looking characters we have on this list. While his baby form and middle evolution look slender and adorable, his final form looks like it is ready to Sludge Bomb your opponent to kingdom come! And with a dinosaur appearance, he looks like he can learn some Dragon-type moves too.
#13 Mike

Okay, this one is dope! Mike’s baby form does not look like much, but his final evolution looks like he can cause some serious damage with Bite.
#14 Sully

Sometimes the sweetest-looking baby Pokemon has the most terrifying final forms. The warm and lovable Sully from Monster Inc. has a lovely and sweet baby form, but a scary battle-ready final evolution.
#15 Pluto

Pluto’s baby form and middle evolution look so in sync; they look so sweet and adorable, that his final evolution looks a bit out of place! Like, doesn’t he looks extremely shady there?
#16 Donald Duck
Source: Crash Bandicoot
The pantless duck with barely coherent speech looks very sweet as a baby Pokemon, but something clearly happens that his final evolution seems like he can k.o. his opponent with one Body Slam.
#17 Daisy

Something happens here, Daisy goes from the girliest character into a swag rapper. Yeah, that Swagger move definitely causes some severe Confusion for us too.
#18 Goofy
Source: Crash Bandicoot
Goofy might look nice as both his baby form and middle evolution, but his final form leaves us scratching our heads. Like, can you imagine Goofy’ speech pattern mixed with Gidfather’s Italian accent? We can’t either.
#19 Stitch

Stitch’s OG design looks a lot like it belongs in the Pokemon’s world. But the final form looks so big and plumb it takes away all the cuteness he has, and makes him into a juggernaut. Look like a good tank, don’t you think?
