Which eeveelution type would you like to see next?

I would be happy with ghost, steel or poison.

 

A ghost type called spookeon

I'm wondering how there'd be a dragon one though? Eevee is like not at all a dragon but hey.

 

I could see a dragon one, and a flying one. They'd be pretty cool I think!

 

steel or dragon type, which I think would fit in well with gen 8.

 

yes yes to steel and dragon! i think they would fit in SO well with the theme of the next games. can i trust gamefreak to pull through on this? god i hope so, don't let me down guys

 

I'm in big agreement with Steel and Dragon. Admittedly, I still hurt for a bug eevee, but I doubt we'll ever see one of those.

 

I agree on Steel and Dragon! I'd like all of them honestly but these are the ones I think we're most likely to get soon.

For a Steel-type I think Chromeon would be a cool name, although I know I've heard other neat ones. I don't know what they'd name a Dragon one. Ampitheon? Wyveon? Just Drakeon, like drack-eon? I'm excited to see where they go with that if they do.

 

I would love to see a dragon-type eeveelution! I'd hope that if they went with it, it'd be more based on an Eastern dragon design vs. a Western dragon, we already have lots of Western looking dragon type Pokémon. I'm also partial to the idea of a normal-type eevee that is just a Very Big Eevee, I'm very basic and like big fluffy babies!

 

I'd take any type for a new eeveelution, though I'd like a ghost-type eeveelution the most. Why? No reason, though I think that one has the most potencial, but that's just me.

 

The best type already exists though

While I would love a steel and/or dragon type, I can't help but wonder how they would fit into the purpose of the Eeveelutions- of symbolizing unusual methods of evolution.

Flareon, Jolteon and Vaporeon represented the elemental stones of gen 1 (not counting moon stone, which tbh would have been the perfect way to introduce a normal eeveelution)

Espeon and Umbreon represented the day/night cycle and friendship values introduced in gen 2

Leafeon and Glaceon represented the location-based evolutions introduced in gen 4

And Sylveon, despite the assumption of it being purely to showcase the fairy type, represented the affection mechanic of Pokémon Amie.

As all the evolutions of gen 3, 5 and 7 were all based on previous mechanics, no Eeveelution was introduced.

So... what potential evolution methods is there? The new games are rumored to have a lot to do with sports, so there's a possibility there.

...Eh, maybe I'm just being contrary because they've already covered my favourite types. Still, food for thought.

 

A flying type would be excellent. I've always wanted to see a flying type eeveelution that has huge ears that it uses to glide with.

For me tho, I'd love to see a poison type! It could go in so many different directions and I'm excited to see what design GameFreak would go with.

 

I have an unspeakable love for poison type Pokémon. And I could image a poison type eeveelution which has a slud and very poisonous looking. Almost like a pond of toxic waste.

 

A poison type sounds really neat. What would you name it?

I personally am thinking about a bionic "steel" eeveelution. I think a metal coat/armor sequence body would be pretty cool and honestly if the armor had some glow lines, would be a sure fire winner for me.

Maybe called Metalleon?

 

I would be really cool to have a dragon or ghost type eeveelution, but I think that an eeveelution that I would probably be most excited about for use in the games would be a poison type, because I've come to realize that when playing through the games, poison is kind of my go-to type. I don't even know why.
