The “Evan” Numbers
The Even numbers are simple: $2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, dots$
The "Evan" numbers follow a tricky rule: $2, 4, 6, 30, 32, 34, 36, 40, 42, 44, 46, 50, 52, 54, 56, 60, 62, 64, 66, 2000, 2002, 2004, dots$
What is going on?

The filler text is so the question can reach the minimum character count.

"Evan" numbers are
numbers not containing the letter 'e' (when written in English).
That means they
don't contain the following words:
- one
- three
- five
- seven(ty)
- eight(y)
- nine(ty)
- ten/teen
- twelve
- twenty
- hundred
Interestingly,
the OEIS calls them 'eban numbers': see sequence A006933
FWIW, I found the pattern on my own, I didn't use a computer or phone to look it up.
As for the filler text,
it's the standard Lorem Ipsum with some letters interjected:
Lorem ipshum dolior sit amet, consecteturn adipiscting elitt, sedh do eiusemod tempor incididunet uta laborre ete dolorne magona aliquha. Ut enimu and minim vendiam, quirs nostrude exercitation dullamco laboris nisi ut saliquip
hintheearenohundreds (which seems to miss an r, BTW)
Hint: there are no hundreds (because that word contains an 'e').
