Crests

The crests were special type of things made by Oak and his human resistances, when they were fighting the Dark Masters and their armies. Those crests help the 12 original kid's Pokemons to evolve further than their 1st Stage forms. However, the crests were all sacrificed on May 20th, 2007, to protect the Pokemon World from further harm. One new crest known as the Crest of Light was created by the Sovereigns, while the crest of hope and kindness were not officially used up.
