Nice team - do you actually like the Eevee family that much or is this just some sick joke being played on you by your local RNG? I feel like almost everyone has Vaporeon as their strongest nowadays so I'm curious how many people chose it because they actually like it or just for its strength haha.My strongest Pokemon in Go atm is a 1300 something Vaporeon. And then behind it is like...an 1100 something Vaporeon. And then a 1000 something Flareon. You see where I'm going with this. lol If Go would load for me, I could list some more, but those are the ones off the top of my head.

The Vaporeon spam comes from being able to choose which Eevee you evolve into - you can name it either Pyro, Rainer or Sparky to force it to evolve into one of those three based on the name haha. Vaporeon's much stronger than 95% of the Pokémon in GO so everyone's just spam-evolving Eevee into him before he gets nerfed right now. It's a shame because Vaporeon is a really cool Pokémon but feels a bit iffy to use him right now. Can definitely sympathise with the Umbreon hype though!I've deduced it this way (going off my local stuff I see, at least. I can't speak for everywhere): Eevee are really common here and only cost 25 candies to evolve. Since Eevee is common, it's easy to find a high CP one, get enough candy to evolve it, and end up with a higher CP evolution. It turning out to be Vaporeon just seems to be coincidence, though I have noticed more gyms with Vaporeon than the other two. Flareon is behind it and then Jolteon I see the least. I have three Vaporeon and Flareon myself, but only one Jolteon. So...partially the RNG really liking Vaporeon. And partially because it's just so easy to catch and evolve Eevee rather quickly.
Not that I mind, as long as I can have an army of Umbreon once gen II is added. Though I do worry it's going to get increasingly difficult to get the evolution you want the more the next generations are added, seeing as we still have five eeveelutions not in the game.
Did you name them and then evolve them straight after? You usually need to restart the app before going through with the evolution to let it properly register.That doesn't work. I've evolved at least three Eevee named Sparky and gotten Vaporeon or Flareon. Either it got patched or it stops working after you get all three. But I can confirm that it doesn't work.
