Evolved CP Predictions - the Five-ThirtyEight of Pokemon

[kittydesade]

So, for various reasons (mostly having to do with utter nerdery) I've been keeping track of the CP of my various Pokemons and my friend's Pokemons before and after evolution. All of these are averages, all of them are percent increase. For example, going by this spreadsheet and precedent I can estimate that a CP 250 Kakuna will turn into around an 800 CP Beedrill. The biggest jumps seem to be to Golbats, Beedrills, and Butterfrees, with over 300% average each, but Zubats, Caterpies, and Weedles don't start out very high to begin with.

Everything is organized by original 'mon in alphabetical order, except the Eevees which are organized by their evolved form since they have three of them. And yes, it does seem like Jolteon evolves consistently with a lower CP than the other two.

Reap the benefits of my stats nerdery! And if you feel like keeping track, you can comment here with your before and after CPs and the mon types and I will add it to the spreadsheet. Obviously I don't have all of them yet, and I left out several that I only had one data point for.

Bulbasaur 311%
Caterpie 107%
Clefairy 207%
Exeggcute 274%
Goldeen 216%
Kakuna 321%
Metapod 345%
Oddish 149%
Paras 195%
Pidgey 186%
Rattata 252%
Spearow 268%
Staryu 239%
Venonat 202%
Weedle 108%
Zubat 312%



Jolteon 201%
Vaporeon 265%
Flareon 250%

My Persian of this morning went from 490-something to 980-something (sorry for lack of precision phone is other side of room and if I wait until I get up and get it I will forget). >.>

It'll do! Thanks, that's one type I don't have any data on. :)

I was pleased it was at least over 900 so I didn't feel I couldn't name it Darayava'ush. >.>

I love when stats geeks do stats magic on game stuff :D I'm doing a lucky egg evolution spree soon and will write down all the CP changes and post them here! (So I hope you don't mind suddenly getting a ton!)

These were from yesterday's evolves! First number is the original CP, second is the CP of the evolved version.

That is one heck of an evolve party! Thank you so much for this. :D

[surpassingly]

You're very welcome! I'm happy to keep track of the CPs for my next one (though that may be a while since I want to evolve another Gyarados during it... haha /)_(\) and post them here too if you'd like!
