Eeveelution: Difference between revisions

The {{type|Normal}} '''Eevee''' is {{ga|Blue}}'s starter Pokémon in {{game|Yellow}} and {{ga|Trace}}'s starter Pokémon in {{g|Let's Go, Pikachu!}}, as well as the [[player character|player]]'s starter Pokémon in {{g|Let's Go, Eevee!}}, {{pkmn|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, and {{pkmn|Conquest}}. In Let's Go, Pikachu!, Trace will always evolve his Eevee into a Jolteon; however, in Let's Go, Eevee!, the player's Eevee cannot evolve, as it is a {{ga|Partner Pokémon}}. To compensate for this, the player's Partner Eevee has higher stats than a regular Eevee and can [[Move Tutor|be taught]] special moves related to the [[type]]s of the other Eeveelutions.

Eevee cannot evolve into Espeon or Umbreon in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, due to the absence of a [[Time|day-night system]]. However, as both are present in the games, they can be legitimately obtained in a save file by trading an Eevee to {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, evolving it there, and then trading back, or by trading from {{g|Colosseum}} or {{pkmn|XD: Gale of Darkness}}.

The {{type|Psychic}} Eeveelution, '''Espeon''', evolves from Eevee when leveled with a friendship of 220 or higher during the [[Time#Time-based evolutions|day]], except in areas with a Moss Rock or Ice Rock, or when leveled up with high friendship and a [[Sun Shard]] in the player's [[Bag]] (only in {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}). It, alongside Umbreon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Pokémon Colosseum]].  

Espeon is the only Eeveelution not to have a type advantage over any other.

The {{type|Dark}} Eeveelution, '''Umbreon''', evolves from Eevee when leveled with a friendship of 220 or higher during the [[Time#Time-based evolutions|night]], except in areas with a Moss Rock or Ice Rock, or when leveled up with high friendship and a [[Moon Shard]] in the player's [[Bag]] (only in {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}). It, alongside Espeon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Pokémon Colosseum]].

After an entire [[Generation III|generation]] with no new Eeveelutions, [[Generation IV]] added another pair of new Eeveelutions, {{p|Leafeon}} and {{p|Glaceon}}, which are obtained by leveling Eevee up in certain areas, another departure from the [[methods of evolution]] in previous generations. In [[Generation VIII]], they can also be obtained via [[Evolution stone]]s.

* In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, and {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet}}, due to the lack of a Moss Rock in [[Galar]] and [[Paldea]], Eevee can evolve into Leafeon only through exposure to a Leaf Stone.

* In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, and {{pkmn|Legends: Arceus}}, both methods can be used to evolve Eevee into Leafeon.

The {{type|Ice}} Eeveelution, '''Glaceon''', evolves from Eevee when leveled up near [[Ice Rock|an ice-covered rock]] or when exposed to an [[Ice Stone]]{{sup/8|SwShLA}}{{sup/9|SV}}.

* In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, and {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet}}, due to the lack of an Ice Rock in [[Galar]] and [[Paldea]], Eevee can evolve into Glaceon only through exposure to an Ice Stone.

Once again, an entire [[Generation V|generation]] passes by before the introduction of a new Eeveelution in [[Generation VI]]: {{p|Sylveon}}. Its reveal also introduced the {{type|Fairy}} to the world.
