Question...

...so, like, when Slowpoke, Diglett, or Magnemite evolve, their new form is essentially just a crowbarring-together of the old form with other mons.

So where do these other mons come from? Do they just spontaneously generate, or does the starter mon send out some kind of biological signal that attracts them postehaste, or what?

According to Pokedex entries, Slowpokes evolve into Slowbros when a Shellder latches onto their tail (and apparently devolve back into a Slowpoke if the Shellder ever comes off). Magneton is formed from three Magnetites linking together with a powerful magnetic force. Of course, this isn't depicted in game, and they all just evolve upon reaching a certain level.

Dugtrio is different, though, with the three triplets apparently having split from the original body. Like mitosis, or something.

What happens is you throw apples to get all three of them together, then they mighty-morph into their new Pokemon and you take a picture.

NOSTALGIA RUSH

I remember getting stuff like that to happen then wasting the rest of my roll taking multiple pics of it. After which I'd spend like ten minutes wondering which one to show to Oak.

'Pokemon Snap' had some pretty cool music, son.
