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.

Caterpie 107%

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!)
