===Concept and development=== | |||
Vaporeon was designed by [[Atsuko Nishida]].<ref name=EVs>(2018) ''EVs''. ([http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-eevee-origins/ English translation] written by Anthony Madry and commissioned by Dr. Lava)</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/atsuko_nishida/status/783643367523557376 Tweet by AtsukoNishida (@atsuko_nishida).] Posted on October 5, 2016.</ref> Nishida originally designed Vaporeon to resemble a dog with fins on its legs but [[Ken Sugimori]] redesigned Vaporeon to resemble a cat and removed the fins.<ref name=EVs>(2018) ''EVs''. ([http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-eevee-origins/ English translation] written by Anthony Madry and commissioned by Dr. Lava)</ref> | |||
In [[Generation I]], Vaporeon had a notably different design, with the backs of its ears being all black, fins on each leg, and a fin running down the entire length of its back, possibly remnants of its original dog-like design. All of these details were removed in [[Generation II]]. Notably, these details weren't present in its original {{game|Red and Green|s}} artwork. | |||
