(BW019 aired on this date in Japan, and the day after this is the premier of Rival Destinies. So it fits.)

===Trainer's guide: Evolutionary stones===
===Rival Rally: Burgundy===
* '''Evolutionary stones''' (Japanese: '''進化の石''' ''Evolution stone'') are stones that possess super-natural abilities that cause certain Pokémon to evolve. They were first introduced in [[Generation I]], starting with the {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Water Stone}}, {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Fire Stone}}, {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Thunderstone}}, {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Leaf Stone}}, and {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Moon Stone}}.
* '''Burgundy''' (Japanese: '''カベルネ''' ''Cabernet'') is a recurring character of the [[Pokémon anime]]. She is currently a C-Class [[Pokémon Connoisseur|Pokémon Connoisseuse]], with the dream of becoming an S-Class Connoisseuse and opening up her own Connoisseuse Shop, as well as seeking revenge on {{an|Cilan}}.
* [[Generation II]] introduced the {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Sun Stone}}, as well as the {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Everstone}} which actually prevents evolution from occurring.  
* She made her debut in ''[[BW019|A Connoisseur's Revenge]]'' pretending to be a high-class Connoisseuse. She evaluated {{Ash}}'s party at the time and claimed he had horrible compatibility with them all, including {{AP|Pikachu}}.
* The {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Dawn Stone}}, {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Dusk Stone}}, and {{DL|Evolutionary Stone|Shiny Stone}} were introduced in [[Generation IV]].
* Burgundy battled Cilan prior to his journey and lost. After their battle, Cilan offered her some advice, which she took negatively and sought revenge against him.
* {{p|Eevee}} is considered to be one of the most notable Pokémon that evolve through evolutionary stones, evolving into either a {{p|Vaporeon}}, a {{p|Jolteon}}, or a {{p|Flareon}} when it comes in contact with the proper stone. It, along with {{p|Gloom}}, are the only Pokémon that have [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|more than one evolution]] influenced by different evolutionary stones.
* She later reappeared during the [[Club Battle]] arc, taking part in the tournament in [[Nimbasa Town]].  
* There are theories supported by the various series' that claim {{p|Clefairy}}, and {{p|Clefable}} worship Moon Stones. {{Ash}}, {{an|Brock}}, {{an|Misty}}, and [[Seymour]] witness this worship first hand in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''.
* Burgundy is currently the only known rival for a traveling companion who collected [[badge]]s. She is also the only rival of the male traveling companion.
* In the ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'' manga, many of the main characters have used evolutionary stones on their Pokémon. One notable example is {{adv|Red}}'s [[Vee]], who was once an experiment by [[Team Rocket]] and had the ability to change into either of its three evolutions, and revert back to being an Eevee. After being captured, Red was able to take advantage of this trait using a Water, Fire, and Thunderstone given to him by {{adv|Giovanni}}. However, it lost this ability after permanently evolving into an {{p|Espeon}}.
* Burgundy has the speaking habit of sprinkling mispronounced French-words and phrases into her sentences.  
* Evolutionary stones have little impact in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|Trading Card game]] due to game mechanics. However, a Moon Stone was [[Moon Stone (Vending S1)|given its own trainer card]], and the Moon Stone and Dusk Stone were featured on a [[Clefairy (Secret Wonders 83)|Clefairy card]] and [[Murkrow (Secret Wonders 95)|Murkrow card]], respectively. Numerous illustrations in the Trading Card game also feature Pokémon with an evolutionary stone.
