AH! OMG!
Found the origin of 'Nin'!! If you review the Japanese names of the Eeveelutions you'll see they are all based heavily around English words. So based off of that, we came across this : Ninon. Quote:
... Oh yeah and the ribbon in the middle of the logo was just pointed out to me to be the ribbon of Ninfia. Tricky that was. >w> https://dl.dropbox.com/u/25431421/Ribbon1.png |

But still, with this 'ribbon' origin, what can that mean for this eeveelution? Does it evolve with a ribbon-item? Or maybe by maximum cuteness or beauty? |

After looking at the image I do like the idea of it evolving by a ribbon or something. Perhaps that is the item that is to be used? Or a bow or something. |

What about items like "Silk Scarf"
and yeah that's the only item I can think of. But it can be held while leveling up + happiness, etc. I would rather GF just bring back the contests. Then I am all for contest ribbons. Maybe instead of beauty, it'd be the cute category? |

I've tested this with Glaceon/Umbreon attempts. All attempts to evolve an Eevee near Icy Rock resulted in Glaceon. Once I moved away it would evolve in to Umbreon. So it goes by a heirchy, Location > Status (Move/Happiness) > Level/Item/Trade |
Quote:
As for items they can always make a new evolution item for it to evolve from. |

It looks like it's a normal type...crosses fingers that it is and that the other one is Ghost type.
Though it could be our much awaited Dragon eeveelution as the colorful part of it's "ribbons" seem to have the red/blue coloration of the Dragon type's label. |
It looks really cute....Must...Draw...NOW!
Man, whenever a new Pokémon is released, I ALWAYS want to draw it. I think it could be a Fighting, Flying, Dragon (although not much) or a Normal type. It could evolve by trading it while holding a Marvel Scale or Pretty Wing perhaps? Still, I´m expecting more tomorrow. : D |
Holy moly it is so cute. D: Was wondering why I was seeing all this Eeveelution talk on my Twitter feed, haha. This one is definitely one of my favorites yet; looking forward to more info.

Not sure if this is what you meant, wasn't sure if people were speculating another eeveelution based on the stars. But I think this covers the relation to the logo? |
HA! I KNEW the Zu represented Espeon!
This new one looks really stupid. Can't imagine I'd ever use it, and it looks like a normal type. Wah, wahhhh... |
Also, just a quick thing, didn't Iwate or Masuda say there was going to be more focus on Pokemon-Trainer relationship? Could it be that this relationship is how Ninfia could evolve?
|
What if it is a bug type? I mean, the symbol on the Japanese logo is a butterfly! I hope, I hope, I hope that there is gonna be a more masculine one. Try to convince me this thing is NOT related to Victini :/ *finger crossed* for a rock, steel, poison, dragon, or ghost.
|
I've always thought the idea of a Normal Eeveelution was completely ridiculous. What would be the point? Eevee itself serves as the Normal type. It seems a waste of a perfectly good opportunity to release, oh, say, a Ghost type. Or Poison. Or Dragon. Heck, ANYTHING else.
That said, Normal was unfortunately the first thing that came to mind when I saw it. It's just so...unreasonably cute. It seems the most logical conclusion, but I'm truly hoping that I'm 100% wrong. |

Also, you can see a couple of 3D battle scenes when you look really closely to the top left of the scan. And, you see one of those ribbon/antennae things next to the heads of Flareon/Umbreon on the left page, making me believe even more it could be a bug type.... (Due to it sparkling) Edit: on the 3D battle scene, it looks like it may be using a fire move?! |
Quote:
|
Just to be clear, it could be of Normal type and still capable of using Fire-type moves.
