- For the Oval Stone, see evolution-inducing held item. For the Eviolite, see stat-enhancing item.

An evolutionary stone (Japanese: 進化の石 Evolution stone) is a stone-like item that radiates a mysterious energy that causes some species of Pokémon to evolve.
Another stone, the Everstone, is different in that radiates a type of energy that prevents evolution in the holders; however, if a Pokémon holding the Everstone has an evolutionary stone used on it, it will still evolve.
Evolutionary stones may be used at any time, and cause instant evolution in the Pokémon they are used on, which cannot be canceled. With the exception of the Everstone, which must be held for its effects to take place, all evolutionary stones are applied directly to the Pokémon. All stones that cause evolution in a Pokémon are consumed upon that Pokémon's evolution.
The use of a stone is seen by many to be "forced" evolution, especially by the main characters of the anime, as the Pokémon is not in charge of its own transformation. Many Pokémon that result from a stone-based evolution also have vastly different level-up learnsets than their pre-evolutionary forms, with several learning no moves after evolution at all.

In the anime
Evolutionary stones are showcased somewhat rarely in the anime, as only a relative few Pokémon are able to evolve by using them. Despite this, they were among the earliest of items to have been showcased in the anime, appearing as early as Clefairy and the Moon Stone, where a rather large Moon Stone appeared deep within Mt. Moon. It was being worshipped by a group of Clefairy who lived there, and was soon stolen by Team Rocket and ended up being blown up. The shards from it, however, rained down on the Clefairy and caused some of them to evolve into Clefable. It is also speculated in the anime that the Moon Stone was the reason why and how various Pokémon—Clefairy in particular—arrived in the Pokémon world.
The second appearance of an evolutionary stone occurred in The Electric Shock Showdown, where the Thunder Stone was introduced. This was likewise the first opportunity that a Pokémon belonging to a main character was given to evolve by stone. Ash's Pikachu, however, refused the offer, intending to beat Lt. Surge's Raichu as a Pikachu. He kept the Thunder Stone on hand, in case Pikachu ever wanted to evolve; however, in Pika and Goliath!, the same scenario occurred and Pikachu still refused to evolve. Seeing his determination of not evolving, Team Rocket stole it, planning to sell it.
The remaining Generation I evolutionary stones made their debut in The Battling Eevee Brothers, as part of a collection held by the Eevee brothers. Additionally, two of the Eevee brothers offered a Fire Stone and Thunder Stone to Brock and Ash, respectively, to evolve their Vulpix and Pikachu, though both refused.
A forest that appeared in The March of the Exeggutor Squad, was a reported hotbed of Leaf Stones, and the radiation from these stones in the forest was so strong as to induce evolution in Melvin's Exeggcute, which proceeded to cause chaos by hypnotizing a horde of other Exeggutor.
A fake Leaf Stone, made by Team Rocket, appeared in Make Room for Gloom, where the discovery of its nature as a fake was central to the episode.
A real Leaf Stone finally appeared at the very end of Pikachu's Rescue Adventure. With it, the Exeggcute that had been following Misty's Togepi around evolved into Exeggutor.
Ash won a Sun Stone in the Bug-Catching Contest during The Bug Stops Here, later using it to evolve a Sunkern in Moving Pictures.
Fire Stones played an important role in The Stolen Stones!, where they were intended to be delivered to a stadium to be used as a prize for competitors there.
Both the Leaf Stone and Sun Stone appear in Whichever Way the Wind Blows as a demonstration of the branch in Gloom's evolutionary line.
The Water Stone appears in Once in a Mawile and is used by Brock's Lombre to evolve into Ludicolo. This is the first time that a main character's Pokémon evolves via an evolutionary stone on-screen, although it is likely that James's Weepinbell was evolved by way of a Leaf Stone prior to The Breeding Center Secret.
A Moon Stone appeared in a flashback in Delcatty Got Your Tongue?, evolving Dr. Abby's Skitty into a Delcatty.
In Stopped in the Name of Love!, Dawn gave an Everstone to her Piplup to prevent him from evolving until he wants to.
Professor Oak gave a Water Stone to a wild Lombre in A Faux Oak Finish!, while a Dusk Stone was central to the plot of Try for the Family Stone!.
Ursula used a Fire Stone and a Water Stone to evolve her two Eevee in Last Call, First Round!, making them a Flareon and Vaporeon, for use in the Grand Festival.
Ash had to find a Thunder Stone as part of a scavenger hunt in Climbing the Tower of Success!. He came across a young man in possession of one who tried to toss it to him from a long distance. The Thunder Stone nearly came in contact with Pikachu but he jumped out of the way just in time leaving Ash to catch it.
Evolutionary stones do not seem to be required for evolution in the anime as they are in the games. James's second Weepinbell evolved without a Leaf Stone in Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid, though this may just be an example of anime physics. In addition, Pokémon that evolve via proximity of evolutionary stones apparently seem to control their evolutionary urges and physically touch the stone without evolving, as evidenced by Pikachu whacking away the Thunder Stone when refusing to evolve the first time, as well as a Clefairy holding onto a Moon Stone for prolonged periods of time before delivering it to the larger Moon Stone without evolving.
