#7: The Next Eeveelution
 

Welcome everyone to the new Pokémon General Polls and Chats series (aka PGPC for short)! PGPC is a new weekly event stemming from past series here in Pokémon General like the PokéPOTW and What Would You Do?, where we throw a topic at you every week to discuss and decide over. Sometimes these threads will be a deep dive into a certain parts of the franchise, or something as simple as pitting a couple Pokemon against each other to see who are your favorites! With something a little different going on every week, it's always a good idea to stop by and see what we're discussing in each PGPC!

Now with all that said, this week's topic is:

"What evolution of Eevee will we see next?"

After a little bit of a break, PGPC is back! There are no shortage of evolutions for Eevee (or, Eeveelutions), with the first-stage Pokemon evolving into one of eight others, depending on certain conditions. That said, there are still many more that we could see, with over half the type chart without a branch on the Eevee tree. Now that 2019 is here and gen 8 is just around the corner, do you think a new Eeveelution is in store, just like with all other even numbered gens? Or do you think we'll be stuck with what we've got? Let us know both in the poll, and with your replies!

I would love to see either a Steel type or a Poison type.

Percy January 1st, 2019 11:22 PM

would be interesting to see a bad-ass dragon-type eeveelution.

colours January 1st, 2019 11:26 PM

Perhaps Poison to balance out Sylveon. Would be an interesting angle to take, especially design-wise.

Janp January 2nd, 2019 3:41 AM

I would like to see more branched evolutions slapped on older Pokémon (IIRC last ones were Gallade and Frostlass in Gen IV). But if they're going to give one more to Eevee, I want Poison-Type. Dragon-Type would be cool too, we need more cute dragons.

CF1994 January 2nd, 2019 4:34 AM

I would love a Dragon-type Eeveelution.

It would be a mixed attacker with decent speed. Potential Abilities would be No Guard, Hustle, Berserk or Moxie.

Possible movesets: Outrage, Dragon Rush, Dragon Pulse, Dragon Dance, Flamethrower, Crunch, Superpower, Aerial Ace, and Smart Strike.

As Eevee already gets Iron Tail, it would have two powerful and great moves that go very well with No Guard, should that be it’s Ability.

icycatelf January 2nd, 2019 9:20 PM

With all the focus on Eevee lately, I'd be surprised if we didn't get at least one new Eeveelution!

A part of me thinks that a recent episode may have been hinting at a Bug-Type Eeveelution. I'd love to see one based on a fuzzy moth! (Poodle moth, anyone?)

Yue Han January 4th, 2019 5:35 AM

I would love to see a Ghost type one personally.

The Silver Fox January 4th, 2019 7:23 AM

Would be happy if they came out with a normal eeveelution, however that's quiet unlikely!!

moon January 6th, 2019 9:12 AM

Would be pretty cool to get another duo. Like perhaps a Steel or Fighting type with a "hero" theme to it, and a Poison type with a "villain" theme. In the anime, they would of course eventually show that the "villain" evo can be just as nice as the "hero" one, it's just devoted to darkness and more prone to scheming than most, maybe :3 or maybe it just got its villain reputation because it was poisonous.

This would be interesting. It might give more focus to strengthening ghost types again, too.

Beyond that, I would like to see Eeveelutions learn attacks that make them more special than just the fact that they all came from the same species.

Pig January 7th, 2019 9:44 AM

The idea is that Eevee shape themselves to their environment, right? A poison type to suggest a place of squalor (like muk or garbador) in the next region would be kind of nifty, but so would a fighting type one, like it evolves into a fighting type after learning a certain fighting type move.

strangerhypno January 8th, 2019 9:42 PM

Don't really see the need for a new one, but I'd like to see a bug type eeveelution and how it would be pulled off.

PageEmp January 9th, 2019 8:49 PM

Dragon. Can’t imagine anything else for now.

BH January 10th, 2019 8:22 AM

Bug (hopefully not a bee/fennec/cat mix) and ghost type please

Sheep January 12th, 2019 11:43 PM

flying
I want to see a pretty and elegant flying eeveelution so much ; ;

Palamon January 13th, 2019 1:51 PM

I'd like another duo instead of a single new Eevee Evolution. So, how about Poison and Ground Eevee evolutions? The Poison type one, obviously, to balance out Sylveon, and a Ground one to counter the Poison one. This is pretty much how it's always worked, anyway, until Sylveon came out.

CodeHelmet January 13th, 2019 5:24 PM

When answering this question, you have to factor in the mechanism required to evolve. Presently we have the following:

Kanto Eevolutions all evolve by Evolution stone.
Johto Eevolutions evolve by time of day.
Sinnoh Eevolutions evolve by location(mossy Rock or Icy Rock)
Kalos Eevolution by affection(aka Pokémon Amie)

I voted for Dragon Eevolution simply because it’d evolve via Dragon Scale(similar to Seadra into Kingdra). Conversely, they could update Glaceon&Leafeon to evolve via Ice and Leaf Stone respectively. Also, apparently Eevee evolves into Melmetal via Moonstone n LGPE lol. Interesting way to get a Steel Eevolution.

Loriania January 13th, 2019 8:43 PM

I think dragon or flying would be coolest.

Brendino January 15th, 2019 12:46 AM

No real reasoning behind my choice, but I think it would be fun to see a Poison type Eevee. Then again, it wouldn't surprise me if it's Dragon type, just to round out the last of the remaining original special type groups.

If we are getting one though, then I'll put my money down on there being a new Eeveelution in gen 10 with a brand new type, just so we can follow the pattern of Eeveelution releases.

BH January 17th, 2019 9:51 AM

Really guys? A dragon eeveelution? I bet a centrail Eeveelution would look like this https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rCFwJqTYU44/maxresdefault.jpg if this came true

Noblejanobii January 19th, 2019 10:01 AM

I think a ghost type eeveelution would be cool to have. Really though it would depend on what region we get is. Depending on where it is in the world, I think different types would be more befitting to the region. If we get like a Chinese based region, definitely would want a dragon type eeveelution.

Inner Rhymes January 20th, 2019 1:12 PM

I really want to see a Dragon, Steel or poiso evolution. Sylveon needs to have a counterpart.

TomDex January 20th, 2019 5:15 PM

Either a mega-evolution or standard 2nd stage evo which all the current Eeveelutions can evolve into. Could have a similar form situation to Arceus, Genesect and Silvally whereby a small part of it is a different colour depending which Eeveelution it came from. Be nice to see Bill as an NPC giving an item or move to induce the evolution. Maybe it could be a brand new type too.

Homeskulled Kid January 23rd, 2019 5:44 AM

Bug. Make it a bug. It's the worst choice and the best choice for it, and I'd be equally as interested in seeing a Steel. It'd be brilliant.

Although it had no apparent effect, the newest episode featured a supposed "Bug Stone." More evidence pointing toward a future Bug Eeveelution?

Well people also put Dusk stone as a source for a ghost type Eevee, i think it's a valid method and not letting it faint, or level it up in a cemetery

BTW i still think those "hold items" should also evolve Eevee, like Gligar or Sneasel did

Pokeyoki January 28th, 2019 3:28 PM

I would love to see a Poison type.

Bethany Jennifer February 25th, 2019 11:46 PM

Probably bug type

Aleimon Thimble February 26th, 2019 2:05 AM

I'm saying Dragon. All other types that used to be 'Special' types got an Eeveelution, only Dragon remains. It would be logical that a Dragon-type Eeveelution would be the next and final one.

Greninja, use Water Shuriken! March 10th, 2019 3:33 AM

I would like to see a fighting type most. And a ground type one too.
