*{{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Feebas}} are the only two Pokémon that reach their next evolutionary forms in multiple ways. Whereas in the handheld games, Eevee becomes {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}} when leveled up with high [[friendship]] depending on the [[time]] of day, in {{Pokémon XD}} it evolves when leveled up with high friendship and the [[Sun and Moon Shards|Sun Shard or Moon Shard]] in the [[Bag]]. This is because Pokémon XD, like {{g|Colosseum}} and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, lacks a time function. Feebas, meanwhile, evolves into {{p|Milotic}} when its [[Beautiful (condition)|Beauty condition]] is high, which cannot be done in the [[Generation V]] games or {{g|X and Y}} unless the Feebas had its Beauty condition raised in [[Generation III]], [[Generation IV]], or [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] previously. Due to this, the [[Prism Scale]] was introduced, so that Feebas caught in the wild or bred in [[Generation V]] onward would be able to evolve freely.
