Easy peasy! Just hit the B button on your Nintendo Switch when your Pokémon starts evolving. This interrupts the evolution process and keeps your Pokémon in its current form. I do this all the time when I want to keep my Pokémon cute and small a bit longer or when I'm waiting for them to learn a specific move before evolving.

No need for any fancy items, just press B. It's been the same in pretty much every Pokémon game. Short, sweet, and to the point.

Actually, stopping a Pokémon's evolution can be strategic. For instance, some Pokémon learn moves faster before evolving. So, pressing B when they start evolving isn't just about avoiding change; it's about planning your battle strategy.
