The augmented reality mobile video game Pokemon Go has been going strong since its release in 2016, and much content, as well as many items, have been added to the game.

Some of these items are intricate to evolve certain Pokemon. While most Pokemon evolve through just Candy, some need a little something extra. Special evolutions include the King's Rock, the Sun Stone, the Up-Grade, the Dragon Scale, and the Metal Coat. These are obtained through daily bonus streaks, PokeStops, or gifts.

However, there are a couple of others: the Sinnoh Stone and the Unova Stone. These are received through rewards for Research Breakthroughs. The Unova Stone in particular opens up the possibility of evolving several different kinds of Pokemon.

7 Simisage Evolves From Pansage

Pokemon Simisage

Pansage is a Grass-type Pokemon that evolves into Simisage with an Unova Stone after eating 100 Candy.

Its Quick moves are Bite (Dark) and Vine Whip (Grass). Simisage's Charge moves are Solar Beam (Grass), Grass Knot (Grass), and Crunch.

At Level 50, it has a Max CP of 2,657, an Attack of 206, a Defense of 133, and a Stamina of 181. Do not even bother trying to use Simisage in the Great League, the Ultra League, or the Master League, because it will fail miserably.

6 Simipour Evolves From Panpour

Pokemon Simipour

Panpour is a Water-type Pokemon that evolves into Simipour with an Unova Stone after consuming 100 Candy.

Its Quick moves are Bite (Dark) and Water Gun (Water). Simipour's Charge moves are Hydro Pump (water), Crunch (Dark), and Surf (Water).

At Level 50, it has a Max CP of 2,657, an Attack of 206, a Defense of 133, and a Stamina of 181. Just like Simisage. And just like Simisage, Simipour will struggle to survive even one turn in the Great League, the Ultra League, and the Master League.

5 Simisear Evolves From Pansear

Pokemon Simisear

Pansear is a Fire-type Pokemon that evolves into Simisear with an Unova Stone after swallowing 100 Candy.

Its Quick moves are Bite (Dark) and Fire Spin (Fire). Simisear's Charge moves are Flamethrower (Fire), Fire Blast (Fire), and Crunch (Dark).

At Level 50, it has a Max CP of 2,657, an Attack of 206, a Defense of 133, and a Stamina of 181. These are the same exact stats as Simisage and Simipour. Therefore, just like Simisear's siblings, it is an absolute dumpster fire in the Great League, the Ultra League, and the Master League.

4 Chandelure Evolves From Lampent

Its Quick moves are Hex (Ghost), Fire Spin (Fire), and Incinerate (Fire). Chandelure's Charge moves are Shadow Ball (Ghost), Overheat (Fire), Energy Ball (Grass), and Flame Charge (Fire).

At Level 50, it has a Max CP of 3,695, an Attack of 271, a Defense of 182, and a Stamina of 155. Chandelure has an awesome pool of moves and hits pretty hard too. While there are better options when it comes to Pokemon with the Ghost typing and Fire typing (and both together), it does okay in the Great League, the Ultra League, and the Master League.

3 Cinccino Evolves From Minccino

Pokemon Cinccino

Minccino is a Normal-type Pokemon that evolves into Cinccino with an Unova Stone as well as 50 Candy.

Its Quick moves are Pound (Normal) and Charm (Fairy). Cinccino's Charge moves are Hyper Beam (Normal), Aqua Tail (Water), and Thunderbolt (Electric).

At Level 50, it has a Max CP of 2,535, an Attack of 198, a Defense of 130, and a Stamina of 181. When it comes to competing in the Great League, Cinccino loses every time. And when it comes to battling in the Ultra League, it faints on turn one. But when it comes to fighting in the Master League, Cinccino dies before the match even begins.

2 Eelektross Evolves From Eelektrik

Pokemon Eelektross

Eelektrik is an Electric-type Pokemon that evolves into Eelektross with an Unova Stone but also 100 Candy. To get Eelektrik, the trainer must evolve Tynamo with 25 Candy.

Its Quick moves are Spark (Electric) and Acid (Poison). Eelektross's Charge moves are Thunderbolt (Electric), Dragon Claw (Dragon), Crunch (Dark), and Acid Spray (Poison).

At Level 50, it has a Max CP of 3,089, an Attack of 217, a Defense of 152, and a Stamina of 198. In the Great League, Eelektross actually does well. There are certainly better Electric-type Pokemon out there that have another type to compliment them though. It proves decent in the Ultra League too, thanks to the variety of moves Eelektross possesses. However, there are better Pokemon with the Electric typing here too. As for the Master League, it will lose hands down to almost every single popular matchup around.

1 Musharna Evolves From Munna

Pokemon Musharna

Munna is a Psychic-type Pokemon that evolves into Musharna with an Unova Stone in addition to 50 Candy.

Its Quick moves are Zen Headbutt (Psychic) and Charge Beam (Electric). Musharna's Charge moves are Psyshock (Psychic), Dazzling Gleam (Fairy), and Future Sight (Psychic).

At Level 50, it has a Max CP of 3,079, an Attack of 183, a Defense of 166, and a Stamina of 253. While it may seem like Musharna has a shot in the big leagues, it does not. Not even a little bit. Musharna will crumble in the Great League, collapse in the Ultra League, and combust in the Master League.
