* [[Professor Rowan]] is said in the games to have studied Pokémon Evolution and determined that 90% of all Pokémon are related in some way by evolution. As of [[Generation IX]], with 201 Pokémon out of 1019 total not evolving, this is slightly inaccurate, as about 80% of all Pokémon undergo at least one evolution before being fully evolved. Excluding the 90 legendaries and mythicals (121 out of 929) its around 87%. In previous generations:

* By far, a plurality of three-stage evolution families were introduced in Generation I, with 29 such families having their roots there (though not necessarily their most unevolved or most evolved forms). Because of branched evolution, 31 of the second-evolution Pokémon can count themselves as members of a Generation I evolution family. Generation V has the second most, with 20 three-stage families (none due to branching). Generation III has the next most, with 16 three-stage families that end in 18 Pokémon (again due to branching). Generations II, VIII, VI, VII, and IV have the least, with only ten, nine, eight, eight, and six families, respectively, that end in a third member.

** Generation V, however, has introduced the most original three-stage evolutions, as many of the three stage-evolutions stemming from Generation I include Pokémon not introduced in the same generation as their evolutionary relatives.
