each card really does mean any card used at any stage of evolution

A(Max level) + B(Max level) = C + [(0.10*A) + (0.10*B)]

If you use 4 base cards in your evolution, desiganted ABCD, and create cards X+, Y++ and Z (Final card), then in addition to card Z's normal stats it can gain:

Z(Base stats) + [(0.10*Y++) + (0.10*D)]

But, Y++ is actually Y++(Base stats) + [(0.10*X+) + (0.10*C)]

and X+ is actually X+(Base stats) + [(0.10*A) + (0.10*B)]

SO... I'm sorry if this is more than you wanted but its hard to stop...

Z(Final Card) = Z(Base stats) +
 * 0.10*Y++(Base stats) + 0.10*D
 * 0.10*(0.10*X+(Base stats) + 0.10*C)
 * 0.10*(0.10*(0.10*A + 0.10*B))

So that 5% or 10% is carried forward to the NEXT stage of evolution, and added to that cards total, of which 5% or 10% may be carried forward again, etc..etc..etc..
