Urgh I think this just became more and more confusing for players who aren't familiar with 8-15 Perfect Evolution Route.

This type of evolution for a ++ card - a third stage card - only applies for an 8-15 evolution route. It's bad to do this type of route to finish a card with 5 base cards. A 5-9 accomplished this way would yield less stats than a 5-8 that's done the proper way.

Let's take the 5-9 you're talking about for example.

Let's say I do this 4-7 ++ here, and I want to finish with a 5-9 card, I'd have to use a base card 1-1 and evolve with my 4-7 to get a 5-9. A base card has less points to carryover during the evolution process, so if you're ever going to do a 5 card, do a 5-8.

5-8 would go something like this:

5 base cards

All 5 max enhanced.

1 base with 1 base = 1 card+

1 card+ with 1 base = 1 card++

1 base with 1 base = 1 card+

1 card++ with 1 card+ = 1 Final Card

That would yield more points than doing a 5-9.

I think I just made it more confusing, so here's the bottom line.

 DO NOT ATTEMPT ROUTE UNLESS DOING A FINAL 8-15 CARD, PERIOD! 

So unless you're doing an 8-15 card, don't even bother trying to know what this setup means.
