Espeon :) I love Psychic-type Pokemon, and I'm really not a fan of Dark-type Pokemon. Espeon is my favorite overall Eevee evolution as well.
 
I like Espeon far more than Umbreon. Umbreon just looks too... plain for me. It's also my least-favourite Eeveelution. P=
 
I like Umbreon more. Espeon looks like some sort of alien.
 
I like Umbreon better because it is better in fights.
 
Ugh, tough decision. Although I'm a sucker for a good Dark type I'll pick Espeon since it looks a little friendlier
 
I think that Espeon is better in fights. But I like Umbreon mainly because it's a dark-type and looks awesome.
 
I change my mind on Eeveons all the time, but right now I'd say I prefer Umbreon. I'm usually a big fan of Psychics, but after Karen kicked my ass with her awesome Umbreon a couple of times my respect for it increased. It's probably one of the toughest Dark types I've fought lately ^-^;

So yeah, Umbreon!
 
Umbreon would tear Espeon to shreds with it's curse/payback combo. Umbreon>Espeon
 
Sorry if you don't want me picking because of the stat division, but that's the only reason why I've always liked Espeon better.

I don't care why you pick one, I just want to know which one people like better.

I can't believe Espeon started out with way more votes (By percentage), but Umbreon got more at one point.
 
Espeon learns much better moves overall. The utter lack of useful dark type moves renders Umbreon fairly useless as an attacker. Umbreon has overall low physical and special attack, teamed with a lack of powerful moves. The low special attack is almost manageable, since dark types moves are mostly physical, but its low physical attack is a bit of a letdown. It's only useful as a defensive battler. Espeon is capable of learning quite a few useful special attack moves and is a capable fighter even in early levels with moves like swift and psybeam.

It's not an offensive Pokemon. Not everything has to be offensive to be useful. I love both as I love all of Eevee's family, but Umbreon has been my favorite Pokemon since I've laid eyes on it. Takes my vote all the time<33
 
Yah,Lots Of Defensive Pokemon Are Useful!Take Metagross For Example.It Can Know Meteor Mash,Zen Headbutt,Hammer Arm And Psychic As Well As Hyper Beam Naturally,And Earthquake,Explosion And Giga Impact By TM. (Attack 135,Defense 130,Sp Defense 90 Sp Attack 95)


Back On Topic,I Voted Umbreon.Espeon = Pink And Pink = EVIL!!
 
Ha Ha Ha! Pink is evil!

OT:I wonder why Explosion is such a good move to many people (Including me). I know it has the highest power in the game, but it's pretty much useless if you only have one pokemon
 
Umbreon looks a bit cooler but Espeon is almost just as cool looking and I like it better because I prefer to attack fast and strong rather than just be defensive. D: It takes too long! I guess I'll say Espeon. & Espeon can tell the future which I think is cool.
 
Espeon. I think it looks better and im using one in my HG and its a complete beast, defeating Chuck singe handed when under leveled, the beating Jasmines Steelix when under leveled.
 
I would have to go with Umbreon. I love its color scheme, and even as a shiny, it still looks neat. I don't like how ShinyEspeon is green, it makes it look terrible in my opinion.

I like the fact that Espeon has an outstanding Special Attack, and I wish Umbreon's wasn't so low, but Umbreon can do quite a bit of damage if given the right moveset. Even just looking at Umbreon in the anime, it looks cool, especially Shigeru's Umbreon.

I think they should've made the regular Espeon Green, and the shiny form pink, because then people would want the shiny form more.
