To be honest sometimes cute pokemon evolve out of nowhere. When AG first started did anyone honestly expect Torchic to evolve? Not only was it the typical cute pokemon a main girl gets like Togepi, Piplup, and Axew....but also May barely ever used it and it never competed in any contest until it evolved.
May's Combusken was a huge shock I remember. I fully expected Torchic to be her useless cute pokemon ala Togepi back then.
