Pidgeotto evolving to Pidgeot to save the Pidgeys & Pidgeottos from the Fearow and Spearow pack. 4. Tailow evolving to Swellow in between the ring battle while caught in the tornado 5. Brock's Pineco evolves to Foritress in between the water twister.

Lycanroc in my opinion was absolutely the best one. We were all curious to see which form it would take then it caught me super off guard when it evolved into Dusk form for the first time in recorded history, which is so cool for Ash. It's the coolest design out of the three forms imo and one of my favorite Pokemon designs in general! Not to mention it was beautiful and its howl and arc made it feel even more intense.

If I have to name an amazing evolution that wasn't on here, I'd definitely say Krookodile mainly because of how it defeated Iris's Dragonite so effortlessly, especially when that behemoth took out 2 very powerful ice types in Georgia's Bearitic and Dawn's Mamoswine. And people still sleep on Ash's Krookodile

Greninja unleashing it's Ash Greninja form should be the most iconic evolution bruh. It was a very unique and special combo, especially when the watery v9rtex was swirling around it. If it isn't the most iconic, it has to the coolest. In the list of coolest evos, we gotta place lycanroc way higher, and even some of ash's kalos mons like noibat and fletchinder. Also, Ash's gliscor had an iconic evolution process. Should've topped the list in my opinion
