How to Evolve Wurmple into Silcoon

Evolution Line
Wurmple	Lvl 7 (Random) →	Silcoon	Lvl 10 →	Beautifly
Wurmple	Lvl 7 (Random) →	Cascoon	Lvl 10 →	Dustox

Evolves from Wurmple by Random Chance

Letting Wurmple evolve into Silcoon cannot be guaranteed, as its evolution will depend on hidden values which cannot be seen in-game. As a result, a Wurmple may evolve randomly into either Silcoon or Cascoon.
