Partner Pikachu and Eevee

So, not too long ago, I decided to look up what happens when you try to evolve the partner Pikachu/Eevee in the Pokémon Let's Go games, out of curiosity. What I found there was interesting: attempting to use the evolution stone nets you the message that the Pokémon doesn't like it, and if you use the "play with Pikachu/Eevee" function they'll look upset.

Which sort of brings me to Chloe's Eevee. For some reason, Eevee is incapable of evolving. We see her touching evolution stones, and the evolution simply... doesn't work. But she isn't refusing to evolve - she seems to quite like the idea, actually, even if she doesn't show a preference for what she wants to evolve into.

Eevee seems like a clear reference to the Let's Go games, but that's a bit of an odd detail! So, in my eyes, that does lead me to the question of whether being the special 'partner' version would make a Pikachu or Eevee physically unable to evolve. It feels like a point of ambiguity, where depending on how you think about it you might find different answers.

Another important point here is Gigantamax Pikachu, Eevee, and Meowth. If these Pokémon have the Gigantamax factor, they can't evolve. A game mechanic I'm not sure is super well-known is that Eviolite also has a hard-coded exception in place for this specific situation, which to me kind of implies that the intent is that Gigantamax renders evolution actually impossible for these Pokémon.

(Presumably this also applies to Duraludon)

I think this fits quite well with how we saw evolution stones interact with Eevee in the show. If that was the case, it would also indicate that Gigantamax factor preventing evolution is most likely an unknown phenomenon on the show, which is interesting! However, we never actually saw Eevee Dynamax so we don't know if she has the Gigantamax factor or if it's something else preventing her from evolving. The partner Pikachu analogue - Ash's Pikachu, obviously - did Gigantamax, however. Maybe the 'partner' ones always can??? I don't know I have no answers, though I do like the idea.

And, of course... we never saw any of the Let's Go special moves in action. Well, the final Thunderbolt against Leon's Charizard looked suspiciously like Pika Papow, but that's it. I guess I'm just curious about what exactly was up with the partner Pikachu and Eevee and why they're so odd compared to other members of their species, and just how much of that also applies to their analogues in the show.

i think theyve ditched it now, but the weird trend where tpci tried to be like “dont evolve your eevee! youre better off using its own unique gimmicks!” like with pikachu was so bizarre from a marketing standpoint. it works as a quick subversive storyline for the anime or something, but not as something people would want to naturally associate with the character whose whole gimmick is evolving into a bunch of cool things.

You know how Red’s Eevee could switch between the original three Eeveelutions before he finally evolved into Espeon? Headcanons for if Chloe’s Eevee could do that? (it would happen through a bracelet that has charms of the gifts Chloe got from the Eeveelution trainers she met)

WE STAN VEE IN THIS HOUSE

There was something special about Chloe’s Eevee: its genetic code was just unstable enough that it could temporarily evolve into any of its evolutions, only to turn right back!

Apparently what helped it evolve was the charms on Chloe’s bracelet, little charms from the other Eeveelution trainers she’d met while traveling with Ash and Goh. It was really strange, how that all worked.

Eevee found the experience…interesting. Not many pokemon could say that it evolved and then devolved! Plus, it got the chance to experience being all of its possible evolutions.

Chloe didn’t want to accidentally hurt Eevee by making it evolve too often, so they both kept an eye on how it was faring after evolving. Especially since she hadn’t heard of that happening with other pokemon…

She also did her best to try figuring out exactly why it was happening, if only so she could figure out whether it would eventually become permanent, either on accident or on purpose.
