From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
This is a list of Pokémon that evolve into a Pokémon originating from a different generation. For example, Pichu (a Generation II Pokémon) evolves into Pikachu (a Generation I Pokémon).
A few of these Pokémon, as a result of new evolutions, become a part of evolutionary families with branched evolutions. Those Pokémon which evolve into a Pokémon of a previous generation, instead of from it, are specifically baby Pokémon.

Trivia
- Generation IV introduced the most evolutionary relatives to Pokémon from previous generations, numbering 29; Generation II introduced 19, Generation III introduced two and Generation VI introduced the least evolutionary relatives to Pokémon from previous generations, numbering only one. The only generations that didn't introduce any new cross-generational evolution are Generation V and Generation VII.
- Roselia is the only Pokémon to have both a baby and an evolution (Budew and Roserade, respectively) introduced in the same generation.
- Sylveon is the only Generation VI cross-generational evolution.
- Porygon is the only Pokémon to have an evolution introduced in a later generation that was later able to evolve once again.
