Some do, some don't.

For regular tessellation, you require the interior angles to be a factor of 360 degrees.

An octagon will not tessellate.

On the other hand a triangle, which does not have an even number of sides, will.

Can irregular polygons tessellate?

Some can, but not all. For example, rhombi, rhomboids, oblongs, and isosceles triangles can tessellate; however, most irregular polygons cannot. * * * * * True, but an incomplete answer. All triangles and quadrilaterals, whether regular or irregular, will tessellate. No regular pentagon will tessellate but (as of 2016), there are 15 irregular pentagons which will tessellate. There are 3 convex hexagons, (regular and 2 irregular) which will tessellate. No polygon with 7 or more sides, even if it is regular, will tessellate.

How do you draw a two sided shape?

At least one of the sides must be curved for a two sided shape. If the curved shape is part of a circle you will have shapes like a segment of a circle, a crescent or a convex lens. The types of shapes can be increased greatly if the curved side can be elliptic, or even better, just a wobbly line.
