How did I end-up having a 78-cp Weedle and a 62-cp Kakuna (an evolved Weedle)?
An evolved Pokemon should be stronger than their original form.
But, I've got a 78-cp Weedle and a 62-cp Kakuna.
This is what probably happened?
- I evolved a very weak Weedle into a Kakuna.
- I just captured a very strong Weedle.
pathway forward:
Reap the Kakuna for a candy and evolve the strong Weedle into another Kakuna? And I get 500 XP for my troubles?

Why does Weedle go down in CP when evolved?
The caterpillar pokemon families are the only ones in pokemon that actually have a bunch of stats go down when they evolve. Kakuna's only stat that's suposed to be better than weedle's is defense....Weedle's CP now goes down when evolved.STATSWeedleKakunaMax CP3973925 more rows•Nov 24, 2016Does Weedle lose CP When evolved?
It does happen when you evolve a Trapinch or Weedle. Turtwig though, shouldn't happen. I've evolved Weedle before, never a Trapinch yet, not often I see those here to catch. But, all 3 of mine that dropped, none were weedle/trapinch.Sources: Stack Exchange - This article follows the attribution requirements of Stack Exchange and is licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0.
