    Hello there! I'm new to competitive battling, and I was wondering if I could get some advice on the team I'm putting together for the eevee friendly. I haven't actually made my team yet, but this is what I'm thinking of using:

    Sylveon
    Bold
    Cute Charm
    Leftovers
    252 Hp/252 Def/4 Sp D
    Light Screen
    Reflect
    Substitute
    Moonblast

    Flareon
    Adamant
    Guts
    Flame Orb
    252 Atk/4 Sp D/252 Spe
    Sunny Day
    Flare Blitz
    Facade
    Will O Wisp

    Espeon
    Modest
    Magic Bounce
    ???
    4 Def/252 Sp A/252 Spe
    Morning Sun
    Psychic
    Shadow Ball
    Calm Mind

    Leafeon
    Adamant
    Chlorophyll
    ???
    252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Swords Dance
    X-Scissor
    Leaf Blade
    Aerial Ace

    Any advice on what I should change would be appreciated. I'm not sure what to do for items for Espeon and Leafeon, so advice on that would be nice. I'm also wondering if I should take substitute off of Sylveon and give it sunny day and then give Flareon a different move. Thanks!

    It kind of bites that Pixilate + Hyper Voice is illegal in the Eevee Friendly, so Sylveon will have to make do with something like this:
    -Wish
    -Protect
    -Moonblast
    -Calm Mind
    Nature: Bold
    EVs: 252 HP/252 Def/4 SDef
    Item: Leftovers
    Ability: Cute Charm

    or
    -Moonblast
    -Psyshock
    -Shadow Ball
    -Hidden Power (Fire/Ground)/Baton Pass
    Nature: Modest
    EVs: 244 HP/252 SAtk/12 Spe
    Item: Choice Specs
    Ability: Cute Charm

    Flame Orb won't work on Fire Pokemon like Flareon. Just use the Toxic Orb:
    -Flame Charge
    -Flare Blitz
    -Facade
    -Will-o-Wisp/Sunny Day
    Nature: Jolly/Adamant
    EVs: 252 Atk/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Toxic Orb
    Ability: Guts

    All the Eeveelutions are capable of learning Shadow Ball, making Espeon somewhat risky to use. It can fulfill Sylveon's old role of a dual screener better because of Magic Bounce:
    -Reflect
    -Light Screen
    -Psychic/Psyshock/Yawn
    -Baton Pass
    Nature: Timid
    EVs: 252 HP/4 Def/252 Spe
    Item: Light Clay
    Ability: Magic Bounce

    Return > Aerial Ace on Leafeon to damage opposing Flareon harder.
     
    Wait what??? Explain exactly what you mean, is pilate slyveon banned?

    Pixilate Sylveon is still allowed in the Eevee Friendly, but only if it's Kalos-born. Only Kalos-born Eeveelutions are allowed in this Friendly. Eevee transferred from Gen V aren't allowed. Hyper Voice is a B2/W2 tutor move and you need Poke Transfer to get whoever learned the move to Gen VI.
