Trivia
- Througha glitch in theGeneration I games, Pokémon that would normally require anEvolution stone to evolve can be evolved without it, provided that the Pokémon levels up in the battle and the player has sent out a specific Pokémon in the same battle. In the case of the Fire Stone, this Pokémon isMissingno. (index number 32).
- InPokémon: Let's Go, Eevee!, if the player tries to give theirpartnerEevee a Fire Stone, they will not accept it, and therefore, will not evolve. The same thing will happen if the player attempts to give them aThunder Stone or aWater Stone.
