    Well Espeon is more of a sweeper. Take em out quick with few attacks, but it goes down way too easy......its a glass cannon....

    Umbreon isn't a sweeper or an attacker type......umbreon is more for stalling, being annoying as heck and its kinda a tank. so i perfer umbreon, the doubleteam like crazy+Moonlight+Toxic cheap as heck ninja pokemon XD

    Toughie. Espeon has the superior moveset (Seriously, why didn't they give Umbreon Crunch???), but I think Umbreon looks better.

    I love them both, but I think Umbreon just about edges it based on aesthetics and personal preference.

    well i think espeon is more of a speed stat pokemon. gets the pokemon out quick and easy and thats my strategy, so im going with espeon. i luv umbreona and comes in a close second, but it has low stats and is more of a defense pokemon and im more of an offense trainer.

    Espeon or Umbreon?


    Espeon, it's always good to have a Psychic type close by and this is one of the best attackers of the group, while also easy to get. With a defense improving item and RETURN in its roster, this thing is a beast.


    Plus, I like lavender.

    Espeon or Umbreon?

    As a prefered offensive trainer, I think it's best to have at least one tank/annoyer in your party. Umbreon is just that for myself when I play in-game. It can take its fair share of hits, and with Toxic and Confuse Ray combined, its a deadly combination. When I was slightly underleveled for Champion Cynthia, Umbreon with Toxic really did work on Garchomp and the like.

    If you prefer Espeon, thats perfectly fine and I respect that, but I just prefer Umbreon for the reasons I stated above.

    I love all the Eevee evolutions, these two are both very unique. Umbreon looks badass and his dark type makes him even cooler, while Espeon holds an advantage in battle with physic moves which is a big advantage. However, you can't count Umbreon out although it is outmatched by speed, and general attack, Umbreons defense makes up for it and not to mention Umbreon has the type advantage. It would make for an interesting battle for sure.

    Umbreon for me, because of how cool it is and how it can be used in battle.

    Umbreon of course, it's dark, looks cool, and has the theme of the moon and night time. Doesn't hurt that it's also my 2nd favorite Pokemon XD.
    Espeon is just, IDK, doesn't really make an impact on me in anyway and doesn't stand out visually in my eyes.

    I overall I like Espeon better. It has great sp.attack that lets it take out other pokemon easily while Umbreon's attack and sp. attack aren't that great. And I would rather have a pokemon that can make a hit rather than take a blow.

    I will admit though that Umbreon does look cooler.

    They are both one of my favorite Pokemon, but I chose Umbreon just because it's black and it's typing is dark.

    I would have to go with espeon. I dunno why but the way it looks and its move set appeal more to me then umbreons do. Not to mention psychic types are crazy awsome.

    Espeon. Whether she's a good battler or not, I just love her so much more than Umbreon.
