evidences
Proves through display
Evidences is the third-person singular verb form of evidence, meaning to demonstrate or serve as proof: Her trembling voice evidences her anxiety.
The usage is formal and somewhat stiff—most speakers would say "shows" or "demonstrates" instead.
As a plural noun, evidences appears occasionally in legal or academic contexts to mean multiple pieces of evidence, though evidence itself typically serves as both singular and plural.
