As a {{t|Psychic}} type, '''Espeon''' is well known for a common trait among Pokémon which share its type: a rather high Special Attack and somewhat high Speed. It also has high Special Defense, another common trait among Psychic types. Taking advantage of the [[time]] and [[friendship]] features introduced in [[Generation II]], Espeon evolves from Eevee when it is raised to maximum friendship and gains a level | As a {{t|Psychic}} type, '''Espeon''' is well known for a common trait among Pokémon which share its type: a rather high Special Attack and somewhat high Speed.

Taking advantage of the [[time]] and [[friendship]] features introduced in [[Generation II]], Espeon evolves from Eevee when it is raised to maximum friendship and gains a level {{tt|during the daytime|between 12 p.m. and 11:59 p.m. in the Hoenn games}}. | ||
Espeon takes advantage of the wide amount of [[special move]]s available. With its Ability, {{a|Synchronize}}, it can easily discourage the use of [[status move]]s that give it a [[status ailment]], as that condition would then come back at the Pokémon attacking it. With its [[Dream World]] Ability, {{a|Magic Bounce}}, it can even protect itself and its team from indirect damage through entry hazards. It, alongside Umbreon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] for [[Pokémon Colosseum]]. | Espeon takes advantage of the wide amount of [[special move]]s available.

'''Umbreon''' is the second of the two [[Generation II]] Eeveelutions, a {{type|Dark}} Pokémon. Somewhat uniquely, it was the only pure Dark-type in the generation it was introduced in, and also uniquely, is the only Eeveelution better suited to defending rather than attacking. With its two highest stats in Special Defense and Defense, respectively, and its two lowest in the respective offensive stats, Umbreon is much more often used to cause status problems than damage.

Like Espeon, Umbreon has the Ability {{a|Synchronize}}, causing other Pokémon that attempt to use its defensive, status-causing strategy against it to suffer as well. As a Dark type, it is also the only Eeveelution whose type has an immunity (to the {{t|Psychic}} type). It, alongside Espeon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] for [[Pokémon Colosseum]]. | Like Espeon, Umbreon has the Ability {{a|Synchronize}}, causing other Pokémon that attempt to use its defensive, status-causing strategy against it to suffer as well.
