For power leveling your player with common 3-Stage evolution Pokémon:
- Weedle
- Caterpie
- Pidgey
The first evolution costs 12 candies and gives 1000 player XP, which is 83 exp/candy.
How much player XP is granted for evolving to their final form for 50 candy?
Best Answer
You gain 500 XP for evolving a Pokemon. This is a flat reward which has no bearing on whether the Pokemon is evolving into it's 2nd or 3rd stage.
You also gain 500XP for registering a new Pokemon. When you evolve a Pokemon, if that new Pokemon doesn't already exist in your Pokedex it will be added, and you will receive the 500XP for this action as well. This will net you a total of 1000XP (evolution + new registered Pokemon).
