Talk:Everstone

Redirecting page

Could someone please create a redirect page for "ever stone"? The search function doesn't seem to do any regex to see if a version of the search term without spaces returns better results.--Sandrew26 (talk) 18:15, 30 July 2017 (UTC)

Everstone is one word. I doubt anybody will be searching for "Ever Stone". — Ruixiang95 03:53, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

I have, which is why I thought it might be handy in case other folks misremembered the name like I did. I thought it followed the same name pattern as the other stones (water stone, fire stone, ever stone, etc). I'm sorry for being dumb.--Sandrew26 (talk) 22:29, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Well, there's a tradeoff between dumb readers not finding the page when searching for it, and dumb editors not realizing they're not linking to the actual article (links to non-existing pages are red, links to redirects are not).

I'm not really sure, and we don't have redirects like "Moonstone" either. Maybe we should.

Anyway, I could imagine the reasonable course of action after realizing "Ever Stone" was wrong is to search for "Everstone" anyway. Nescientist (talk) 23:16, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Alolan and normal form breeding with everstones.

I tried breeding with two vulpix, a normal one and an alolan one, both holding an everstone. From my sample(4 eggs), It seems that the eggs will hatch in the mother's form, in this case the alolan vulpix. It also seems their gender is either guaranteed female or female 90 or higher% of the time. Decimal Flower 15:11, 1 October 2021 (UTC)

Biology Final Exam Question Reference Error

I noticed that during the Biology Final Exam in Pokémon Violet, there is a question that falsely represents the Everstone's behaviour in regards to using Evolution-inducing Items (Evolution Stones, as a Fire Stone is directly mentioned). The "correct" answer is that using a Fire Stone on an eligible Pokémon that is holding an Everstone is that it will not cause it to evolve. For the sake of my own sanity, I checked in game if it would work using a very similar example (with Murkrow but a Stone nonetheless) and it did indeed allow me to use the item and evolve the Pokémon. Is this worth mentioning in the article, and if so would it be better suited as a Trivium rather than a separate section under Generation IX in the Effect section? — Lavince ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (talk) 03:11, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

Seems like it would be good as a trivium. Landfish7 04:22, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

It appears that this has been fixed in one of the updates, as answering "No, it will not" today got me 4/5 Questions correct.--Starlac (talk) 00:30, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
