Again, the total and absolute LACK of information as provided by RoD regarding 'best practices when it comes to enhancing and evolving cards' is next to non-existent and not everyone who comes into RoD is familiar with online TCG mechanics... much less RoB mechanics which is similar to RoD's.

I was a level -35- before I even knew such a thing as 'perfect evolution' even existed and I HAVE played other online TCGs casually before.

UNLESS you decided - for whatever reason - to Google search RoD (I found this place because I was researching cards) or UNLESS someone managed to tell you about 'best practices' (someone in the in-game forums did), or UNLESS you have played RoB before, it is actually rather difficult to get proper information in a right-here-right-now manner if you're only looking at the game itself.

Yes, there are forums, but then you also have to ask people for advice as even though abbreviations are being tossed around very casually, actual explanations are not always immediately available and even then, the forums' word limit makes explaining (and reading a lengthy explanation condensed down) a pain.

I asked for general game advice and someone - bless them - thought to remind me about evolution practices and saving stamina pots (I had first started back when they were easier to come by) etc.

TLDR; yes, bad evolutions happen and YES, it could happen to a great card because the person who's coming into the game could very well be 1) unaware of the evolution system even though they have played for some time, 2) someone who came into the game as a paying player to begin with and was able to stack their deck early on with better cards and gain an advantage so despite their deck they aren't all that advanced of a player, 3) someone who bought the cards from someone else on the Bazaar and not understanding the evolution system or having had it go wrong, decided to put their improperly evolved cards up for sale.
