I have seen some cool fan made Eeveelutions drawings for the other types indeed.

Would love an evolved Normal type Eevee or a Steel type Eeveelution myself.

I'd like to see a Ghost type and a Dragon type Eeveelution.

Game Freak likes to connect Eevee to special mechanics of the game, having it evolve via that feature to showcase it. With gen 1 they all had stone-based evolutions. In gen 2 it was linked to time/ night and day. For gen 4 there were location-based evolutions. Gen 6 brought us affection. With Gen 8 they kinda did still follow the pattern of liking to a new game play feature , they just let eevee be the one to shine by giving it a gigantamax form.

I think they could have another eeveelution in store, and would keep an eye out for ways they can enter through changes introduced.

I think there's high expectations for the eevee designs too.

Too bad that Alolan Arcanine isn't real. But hey, at least we've got Hisuian Arcanine.

I'd acquire that Alolan variant. I generally do like Arcanine. I have dogs irl, I think this one has an appealing, regal design and appreciate it's balanced stats and many tools. I think the Hisui version is also an original and interesting idea with it's inspiration taken from those statues komainu that are meant to guard temples. My vote for Charizard is not a criticism of Arcanine. I had two choices I liked, but was required to take sides, so here I am.

Since switching sides is allowed in this game, I'm going to take the rare moment to mention that Arcanine was my second ever Fire type directly after Charizard. It was for my first playthrough of Heart Gold, I named him Wolf. After years of going without using one, I added one to my main team again in Shield, who I also named Wolf as a legacy. He, along with the three main Legendaries of the game became my first four Pokemon to fully clear the Single and Double battle formats of the 'battle tower' in that game, and earned medals for it as well. And in the PC-RP I'm doing featuring an alternate history of that same character from Shield, one of my main 6 Pokemon is meant to be that same Arcanine. A truly wonderful Pokemon.

I usually name my Arcanines and Lucarios after real dogs I have had. I have to vote for Charizard though because it's a dragon in all but name, and I was never lucky enough to have my own pet dragon before. I was told that we couldn't afford one.

Maybe, if you go to some viking village on a coast, you can get one. I heard they have fiery ones, two-headed ones, small but bold ones, toothless ones, ... :p

When I saw the word toothless, I was reminded of Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon.

I haven't seen that one yet, I probably should. I usually like the 2d hand-drawn style of animation more, like a good studio ghibli film, more than computer graphics that are everywhere in the west...but it has dragons, and vikings! 😃

Then, have an anime style, fluffy dragon.

Smells like dog in here, when it should be smelling like DRAGON!

But washing the big dog can be fun!
