At level 12, my Zubat wasn't even able to battle trainers at route 3, but now, at level 24, it's an absolute beast, HOW?

How and why did my Zubat go from the guy that can barely beat wild level 7-9 Pokemon to someone who 1-shot kos Pokemon(I evolved it into Golbat at level 22)?

First thing would be, it leveled up.

Because it’s level went up, and damage is proportional to level?commented 47 minutes ago by sumwun

Yea that. When a Pokémon increases it’s level, said Pokémon’s damage output also increases.

Now, when it’s level 24, which is the double of level 12, + it evolved, I guess it’s evident that the damage output would be increasing.A Zubat has base 45 Attack and 30 Special Attack, whereas a Golbat has Base 80 Attack and 65 Special Attack. The base stats itself show that the same attack used by a Golbat would have much more damage output than a Zubat using the same attack!

So now we come to the conclusion that, the increase of levels, plus the evolution, has aided the Zubat in becoming a ZuBat Man.

Hope it helped!
