==History==

[[File:Gary Eevee.png|thumb|left|225px|As an Eevee with Gary]]

Umbreon first appeared as an {{p|Eevee}} in ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]'' where it was used in a {{pkmn|battle}} against {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}}. {{an|Brock}} commented that, by the looks of its shiny coat and bright eyes, that Gary trained it very well. In battle it backed up this observation with a {{m|Reflect}} the likes of which {{Tracey}} had never seen before. The Reflect absorbed Pikachu's {{m|Quick Attack}} and although Eevee was sent flying, it landed on its feet having sustained little to no damage. Eevee dodged Pikachu's electric attacks with Double Team, although its own {{m|Take Down}} was blocked by Pikachu using {{m|Agility}}. It finished the battle by hitting Pikachu with {{m|Skull Bash}} just as Pikachu attempted {{m|Thunder}}. Pikachu's attack shocked itself and, combined with the damage from Skull Bash, knocked it out of the battle having not landed any damage on Eevee.

Gary took Eevee with him when he left for the [[Johto]] region. It [[evolution|evolved]] sometime prior to the episode ''[[EP171|Power Play!]]'', where it was shown to be battling [[Alex Davis]]'s {{p|Alakazam}}. Gary noted that Alex Davis was the first new opponent it had had in a while. It proved itself to be a very agile battler, dodging {{m|Zap Cannon}}, {{m|Headbutt}} and {{m|DynamicPunch}}. When Alakazam used {{m|Double Team}} Umbreon sensed the real Alakazam and slammed it onto the ground. Alakazam used {{m|Teleport}} to avoid Umbreon's {{m|Quick Attack}}, but Gary and Umbreon detected the charging {{m|Hyper Beam}} and dodged it, then knocked Alakazam out with {{m|Hidden Power}}, winning the battle without having taken a single blow.

It was not used in Gary's battle with Ash at the [[Silver Conference]], although it did appear on his profile. Gary left Umbreon at Oak's when he left on adventures with just his {{TP|Gary|Blastoise}}.

In ''[[SS015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl!]]'' it was shown that he had recalled Umbreon to his team. It was seen with its Trainer when they were trying to convince {{p|Aerodactyl}} that they were its friends.

It appeared again along with its {{pkmn|Trainer}} in ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]'' where it repelled a {{p|Golbat}} from one of [[J's henchmen]] with {{m|Sand-Attack}}. Gary's knowledge of the area combined with Umbreon's agility resulted in the Golbat accidentally disturbing a hive of {{p|Beedrill}}, which distracted the henchmen long enough for Gary, Ash, {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Dawn}} to escape with the Shieldon that [[J]] was hunting. It was called on again to sabotage J's ship, using {{m|Shadow Ball}} to cause explosions and then tackling J's henchmen with {{TP|Gary|Electivire}} to allow Ash to retrieve Shieldon.
