So did their modern populations just lose the will to evolve?

I can understand modern Sneasel and Scyther not being able to evolve to Kleavor and Sneasler. Weavile and Scizor fit their niches better.
Same with Qwilfish, but in this case it's regional variant.


But why did pic related stopped evolving?

Didnt want to look shittier anymore

Ursaluna was most likely an impractical form to use, so the Rings stopped evolving altogether.

Wyrdeer probably requires special magical environment bullshit to fully hone it's powers from it's Stantler state. Unlike the Ursaes, Stantler unwillingly lost his form.

Basculin are niggers of the sea, but the ones you saw in Arceus are like actual North Africans instead. Sadly, the ones that transferred to Unova and other areas 100+ years ago devolved into only killing each other instead, hence their filthy Crips and Bloods colors.

Wyrdeer is actually in gsc it's just they forgot to implement psyshield bash

Maybe peat blocks disappeared for whatever reason, do Ursa couldn't evolve anymore.

No clue with Stantler. Maybe they all just forgot how to use psyshield bash for some some reason?

They weren't coded in to the games.

Kleavor fits Johto better than Scizor does.

Ursaring evolves into Ursaluna in a muddy swamp. We can usually find Teddiursa and Ursaring in the games in rocky terrain or just regular ass grass. Populations of Teddiursa probably migrated from swampland to rocky terrain and lost the need to evolve. Probably possible to evolve an Ursaring in modern day to Ursaluna theoretically.

Same thing with Wyrdeer and Kleavor. No Stantler or Scyther ever met the qualifications but the evolution remains theoretically possible. Stantler populations forgot to use the move necessary to evolve and Scyther has a more practical evolution.

Sneasler is an evo of a regional fork so he's probably extinct like the base form.

Most obvious answers:

Ursaluna evo item doesn't exist anymore
Stantler can't evolve because nobody fights with agile style anymore. Also Psyshield Bash was forgotten by time
White Basculin are extinct. Remember, only the White ones can evolve... heh...

Not really, Kleavor looks like a Medabot/digimon

Ursaring requires a rare item that forms in the marshes of Hisui, In the modern day the marshes are much smaller so there's less chances for this item to form, and even less for an Ursaring to find it.

Stantler Evolves through its Signature move Psysheild Bash, which modern Stantler have forgotten how to use.

Only the Whitstripe Form of Basculin is able to Evolve, wich isn't native to any region we've been to and is likely extinct.

Kleavor fits Johto better than Scizor if you really think about it.

Why are you people trying to rationalize retcons? In every game after PLA we're gonna have some spot in the map that lets you get Hisuian forms like they've always existed.

>Probably possible to evolve an Ursaring in modern day to Ursaluna theoretically
Eviolite has no effect on Ursaring, so no

>Scizor
More industrial, modern and robotic, probably thrives more in more developed regions with lots of factories such as Kanto, Sinnoh and Galar.
>Kleavor
More organic, traditional and natural, probably thrives more in underdeveloped regions with lots of nature-related work such as Johto and Hoenn.

yes, like 4channers have lost the will to evolve into civilized humans to stay here and shitpost all day instead of being useful members of society
pretty based mons if you ask me

So modern Stantler are just retarded?

Strong Wyrdeer create good times
Good times create weak Stantler

there's no Stantler in Sinnoh

Being stronger doesn't mean a better standard of survival, it's entirely plausible that the weaker forms are simply more efficient at survival and therefore more capable at reproducing and out competing for resources.

What about route 207

Ursaring needs a specific item, so it makes as much sense as Kleavor not existing in the present day does.
Modern Stantler didn't know what Psyshield Bash is.

>Kleavor and Ursaluna
Most Scyther and Ursaring aren’t exposed to the conditions they need to evolve in the modern age.

>Sneasel
It’s a regional form user, why did you bring it up?

>Stantler
Fuck knows lmao

>Basculin
White-Stripe Basculin has a different disposition so its basically a regional variation.
