Weepinbell → Victreebel He traded James' Victreebel for his Weepinbell which then evolved, but was kicked it away by Jesse.

Hoppip James bought Hoppip from the Magikarp Saleman thinking it was a Chimecho. After the disguise it had fell apart, it flew off.

Weepinbell → Victreebel James traded Victreebel for a Weepinbell from the Magikarp Salesman during one of his scams. That Weepinbell evolved into Victreebel soon after, they both were kicked away by their owners and bumbed into each other falling in love and ran away together.

Gyarados James bought Gyarados when it was still a Magikarp. When James threw Magikarp into the ocean, it evolved into Gyarados. Eventually it used Dragon Rage hurling Ash, Misty, Brock, and Team Rocket away and it was never seen again.

Magikarp x2 James was fooled by the Magikarp Salesman twice into buying a Magikarp.
