Can cooking Pokémon increase their stats?

Once your curry is done, you can share it with your pokémon, and, if it's good enough, they can get stat bonuses or increases to their friendliness towards you. I love the idea of being able to cook tasty meals for my pokémon friends, but the game itself leaves a lot to be desired.

Is there a benefit to not letting your Pokémon evolve?

Some Pokemon learn moves that their evolutions cannot learn, which is why some people hold off on evolving them. Some Pokemon also learn moves at an earlier level than their evolutions, which gives the incentive of trying to obtain certain moves sooner rather than later.

Can I trick Pokemon Go into thinking I'm walking?

Yes, you can trick Pokémon Go into thinking you're walking using methods like GPS spoofing apps (iAnyGo, AnyTo) with virtual joysticks or by shaking your phone in a sock, which plays on GPS/Adventure Sync inaccuracies, but these can violate terms of service; official methods focus on using Adventure Sync for real steps, while non-walking tricks use location manipulation or device shaking for buddy candy and egg hatching.

Is a cubone just a Charmander?

No, Cubone is not officially a Charmander, but a popular fan theory suggests Cubone is a Charmander that lost its mother, causing its tail flame to never ignite and leading it to wear its mother's skull (a Charizard skull) for protection, explaining its Ground-typing and sadness. This theory points to Cubone's ability to learn fire moves and the skull's resemblance to a Charizard's as supporting evidence, though it remains a fan idea, not canon fact.

Are Pokémon weaker if not evolved?

Not only do evolved forms tend to show greater stat gain from Level to Level, but Pokémon receive a one-time "evolution bonus" to their stats. The longer evolution is delayed, the larger this bonus will be. However, it is not the case that Pokémon who put off evolution are stronger in the long run.

Does Everstone increase stats?

No, the Everstone does not directly increase a Pokémon's stats; its primary function is to prevent evolution, but when breeding, holding it gives a 50% chance for the baby Pokémon to inherit the holder's nature, making it useful for passing down specific traits, not stats. You might be confusing it with the Eviolite, which does boost the Defense and Special Defense of unevolved Pokémon, notes Pokemon Database.

Can a Pokémon have all 31 IVs?

Yes, a Pokémon can have 31 IVs (Individual Values) in all six stats (HP, Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, Speed), which is considered "perfect IVs" or 6x31, but it's extremely rare and requires dedicated breeding or luck in catching. While possible for most Pokémon, some event or static Legendaries might have restrictions, but the standard is 0-31 for each stat, and breeding with items like the Destiny Knot and Power Items makes achieving this much easier.
