I hate Evelynn jungle; she is too easy to gank with and too reliable to escape with

I am just TIRED of seeing her. Anytime I play versus an Evelynn they're complete garbage at farming/dueling but the moment they can cast charm on me I am fucking dead. If I want to fight her she presses R and escapes while doing damage. It is the most bullshit to play versus. She is strong, she has been strong since PATCH 8.4 but nooooo, she is allowed to be in this state because she isn't played in pro-play so it must mean she's completely fine.

What is the issue? Her charm has no fucking counter play. She can miss her skillshot but if she lands her Q -> charmed, if she AA you -> charmed, she can flash auto/Q -> charm. "Oh, but you just have to run away" Yeah? Which fucking direction? Where is she coming from? There WAS an indicator like old Evelynn when she got close to you and it was a generous range, but with the new one it is bullshit. Old Evelynn was a true assassin. Remember how she was played in pro-play? Providing vision, waiting for the perfect moment to jump onto her target. But now? Fuck it, charm them for 1.5 seconds then ult away. Rinse and repeat.

If she's continually charming you in lane, you're evidently overextended and have no control wards out (or in a useful place). Focus on fixing those two issues, first.

Wait what? Is this post a joke or something?

Like ALL ASSASSIN? All assassins have a way to get in and get out. However eve has to literally walk up to you to engage you. Her blink is tied with her ulti. If you force her to blink she cant escape should she needs to. And before you start spouting nonsense like " SHE IS INVISIBLE YADA YADA IM TOO BUSY FARMING INSTEAD OF BUYING CONTROL" her detection range IS HUGE. 650 just like cait range.

Old eve also was hardly an assassin and she had invisibility from the get go and smaller detection range.

Just like every other assassin. But unlike other assassins, she has to wait 2.5 sec for the charm to cook up, giving you plenty of time to take measures or go to your team.

her q is her only skill shot, but if you are having a problem dealing with her due to her camo invest in some item 2055 since it does reveal camo.
