** Some of Shelmet and Karrablast's dex entries (the ones referring to how their physiology responds to electrical energy), suggests that what we call "trade evolutions" are really just using a machine to artificially activate a mechanism that can on rare occasions happen in the wild. Some wandering trade evolution Pokémon could also just be ones that were released by their trainers or left them for other reasons (like how the prehistoric Pokémon in the Crown Tundra are implied to be descendants of Pokémon that escaped from labs or were released by trainers).

** Maybe the power from max raid dens lets them evolve. They can be found in raids, after all.

** Maybe the power from max raid Max Raid dens lets them evolve. They can be found in raids, Raids, after all. all.
*** But the only way outside of Raid dens in [=SV=], the only way to get a Machamp is evolving a Machoke which is done via trading. It's common to find wild Raichu because evolution stones are ore that are found in the wild and a wild Pikachu just has to expose itself to the item.

* Is Rose's legal given name Rose or is it just his surname? Take the Professors. Oak is just his surname. If that's so, why isn't Peony called Peony Rose or Peony called Peonia Rose? Were the Roses expecting girls?
