The Everstone (Japanese: かわらずのいし Unchanging Stone) is a type of held item introduced in Generation II. It is an out-of-battle effect item that prevents the holder from evolving.
In the core series games
Price
|
In the Generation V games, the Everstone can be sold to an item maniac inside the Icirrus City Pokémon Center for $1000.
Effect
In the overworld
A Pokémon holding an Everstone cannot evolve by level-up or trade. (It does not prevent a Pokémon evolving via Evolution stone.)
From Generation IV onward, the Everstone fails to prevent Kadabra from evolving. If either Karrablast or Shelmet holds an Everstone when traded for the other, neither can evolve.
Breeding

This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Does the Everstone work if held by a female Pokémon bred with Ditto in E/DPPt? What happens if both parents hold an Everstone in HGSS/BW and in B2W2 onward? |
In Pokémon Emerald and Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, if held by a female Pokémon or Ditto in Pokémon Day Care, bred Pokémon have a 50% chance of having the same Nature as that parent. In Generation IV, this does not work if the parents come from games in different languages (due to the Masuda method).
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver and Pokémon Black and White, if held by either parent in Pokémon Day Care, bred Pokémon have a 50% chance of having the same Nature as the parent holding the Everstone. In Generation IV, this does not work if the parents come from games in different languages (due to the Masuda method).
In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 and Generation VI onward, if held by either parent in Pokémon Day Care or the Pokémon Nursery, bred Pokémon are guaranteed to have the same Nature as the parent holding the Everstone.
Regional forms
If held by a Pokémon that has regional forms in the Pokémon Nursery, bred Pokémon will be the same regional form as the parent regardless of the region they are bred in. (Normally, hatched Pokémon are always in the form corresponding to the region in which they were bred.)

Description

In the anime
In Stopped in the Name of Love!, Dawn received an Everstone from Sandalstraw Town's Nurse Joy. She then gave it to Piplup to prevent him from evolving. Despite this, however, Piplup was never shown with the stone after the episode.
In No Stone Unturned!, Ash's Rowlet found an Everstone, which it started keeping in its stomach. With it, it also learned how to use Seed Bomb.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga
In (Violent) Earthquake! Cyrus's Consuming Ambition!!, it was revealed that Mitsumi had secretly attached an Everstone to Hareta's Piplup before he started his journey, because she had thought Hareta would learn faster with weaker Pokémon. After Mitsumi removed the Everstone, Piplup immediately evolved into Prinplup, and then into Empoleon.
