- This article is about the evolution family of Eevee. For the Theme Deck released with the Skyridge expansion, see Eeveelution (TCG). For the deck archetype, see Eeveelutions.
An Eeveelution (Japanese: ブイズ Vuis) is a term used for the current group of eight Pokémon that evolve from Eevee. It is a portmanteau of the words "Eevee" and "evolution". Its definition may be extended to include Eevee itself. It originally was an unofficial term used by fans, but the term eventually passed into the realm of official usage first as a pun in the official guide of Pokémon Stadium 2,[1] and then later in the TCG Theme Deck Eeveelution, as well as in the game Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia.
In the games
Generation I
In Generation I, Eevee is obtained at the Celadon Mansion and can evolve into Jolteon, Flareon, or Vaporeon through the use of an evolutionary stone.
Eevee
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
- Main article: Eevee
Eevee is the rival's starter Pokémon in Pokémon Yellow as well as the starter Pokémon for both Michael in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness and the Hero/Heroine in Pokémon Conquest.
Vaporeon
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

- Main article: Flareon
The final member of Generation I's Eeveelution trio is Flareon, a Fire-type Pokémon, evolving from Eevee when it is exposed to a Fire Stone.
Generation II
Eevee is again available relatively early in Generation II, which introduces two new Eeveelutions: Espeon and Umbreon, obtained when Eevee is leveled up with high friendship at certain times of the day. Due to this, and the lack of a clock in certain Generation III games, Eevee cannot evolve into Espeon or Umbreon in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen. Each of Ecruteak City's Kimono Girls owns one of the five Eeveelutions that existed in Generation II.
Espeon

Umbreon is the second of the two Generation II Eeveelutions, a Dark-type Pokémon. Umbreon evolves from Eevee when it gains a level during the nighttime with maximum friendship. It, alongside Espeon, is the starter Pokémon for Pokémon Colosseum.
Generation IV
Though no new Eeveelutions were introduced in Generation III, Generation IV added another pair of new Eeveelutions, Leafeon and Glaceon, which are obtained by leveling Eevee up in certain areas, another departure from the methods of evolution in previous generations.
Leafeon
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
- Main article: Leafeon

Sylveon is a Fairy-type evolution of Eevee. It evolves when leveled up with a Fairy-type move and at least two Affection hearts in Pokémon-Amie or Pokémon Refresh.

In the anime
In the anime, the Eeveelutions have been featured together in several episodes, most specifically in The Battling Eevee Brothers under the possession of the Eevee brothers, which focused on the three Generation I Eeveelutions, as well as Eevee itself, and Trouble's Brewing under the possession of Sakura and the Kimono Girls, which focused on the five Eeveelutions there were as of Generation II, although Sakura's Espeon was still an Eevee during this episode. The seven Eeveelutions as of Generation IV were first featured together with an Eevee as a small cameo at the beginning of Giratina and the Sky Warrior. In the Pikachu short Eevee & Friends, it featured Eevee with all eight of its Eeveelutions as of Generation VI.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga
- Main article: Vee
Vee was featured as a Pokémon Team Rocket experimented on with the use of the "Eevee Bio-Engineering Scheme". This allowed Eevee to freely evolve into any of the Generation I Eeveelutions and then revert back into its original form. After some time under Red's ownership however, Vee evolved into an Espeon, and the ability was eliminated.
Karen's Umbreon, first seen in the Gold, Silver & Crystal arc, used to be an Eevee.
The five Kimono Girls debuted in the HeartGold & SoulSilver arc. Each own a different Eeveelution like their game counterparts, and by the end of the chapter, recruited a Leafeon and a Glaceon.

In the TCG
In the Pokémon Trading Card Game, many sets featuring the Eeveelutions have been released. Commonly, all of them will be released within the same expansion set, much as Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon were originally released in the Jungle expansion.
Included with the Skyridge expansion, also, is a Theme Deck by the name of Eeveelution, which features the original three Eeveelutions as the focus. However, the deck only includes the three Generation I Eeveelutions: whereas Umbreon was released in the set, Espeon was not.
There have also been several deck archetypes that revolve around the Eeveelutions, mostly due to their versatility and their lack of a unanimous weakness. One of the most recent is Eeveelutions, which utilizes Pokémon-ex variants of all five then-known Eeveelutions. The use of this archetype has been assisted by the release of a great many Energy cards that provide more than one type of Energy, such as Rainbow Energy. In Majestic Dawn, Glaceon and Leafeon were introduced to the TCG; the set also included all previous Eeveelutions. The most recent expansion to include the Eevee family is Plasma Freeze, including all but Sylveon (since the set was released during Generation V). Sylveon was first introduced into the TCG in Furious Fists (if the XY Black Star Promos and the XY Trainer Kit are not counted).
Trivia
- Each Eeveelution has identical base stat totals, as well as the same 130-110-95-65-65-60 amounts. What differs among them is which amount is allotted to which stat.
- Espeon and Glaceon both have their highest base stat in Special Attack, as well as the same stats in HP and Special Defense.
- Umbreon and Sylveon both have their highest base stat in Special Defense, as well as the same stats in HP and Attack.
- Leafeon is the only Eeveelution whose base stat in Special Defense is lower than 95.
- No Eeveelution so far has either HP or Special Defense as its lowest base stat.
- In the TCG, out of the eight Eeveelutions, only two share a type: Glaceon and Vaporeon, which both appear as Water Pokémon.
- Eevee and all of the Eeveelutions each have a catch rate of 45.
- Vaporeon is the only Eeveelution that does not share any weakness with another. Flareon and Jolteon are weak to Ground-type moves, Espeon, Umbreon and Leafeon are weak to Bug-type moves, Umbreon and Glaceon (as well as unevolved Eevee) are weak to Fighting-type moves, Leafeon and Glaceon are weak to Fire-type moves, Flareon and Glaceon are weak to Rock-type moves, Leafeon and Sylveon are weak to Poison-type moves, and Glaceon and Sylveon are weak to Steel-type moves.
- Jolteon is the only Eeveelution without an obvious tail. However, in the The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga, it is shown to have a stubby tail under its spikes. The tail is absent from its Generation V backsprite, however.
- Flareon is the only Eeveelution who has a type advantage over more than one other Eeveelution (both Leafeon and Glaceon).
- Espeon is the only Eeveelution not to have a type advantage over another at all (Vaporeon is strong against Flareon, Jolteon is strong against Vaporeon, Flareon is strong against both Leafeon and Glaceon, Umbreon is strong against Espeon, Leafeon is strong against Vaporeon, Glaceon is strong against Leafeon, and Sylveon is strong against Umbreon).
- Prior to Generation III, Espeon was the only Eeveelution to have a signature move. Its signature move was Morning Sun, but it can be learned by several other Pokémon in the later generations.
- A chapter of Magical Pokémon Journey, Eevee-Lu-Tion, parodies this term. (Eevee and Lu are the names of two characters from the Magical Pokémon Journey manga).
- Despite this, most of Eevee's evolutions up to Generation II were not featured in this manga series. Only Vaporeon makes an appearance in The Master Plan... for Romance!.
- Because there is no clock system in FireRed and LeafGreen, Eevee cannot evolve into Espeon or Umbreon even though they exist and can be traded in from Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald Versions. Similarly, in HeartGold and SoulSilver, the lack of the Moss Rock and Ice Rock prevents Leafeon and Glaceon from being obtained without trading.
- The Eeveelutions were featured along with Eevee in the Eevee Essences Collection.
- Prior to Generation VI, every Eeveelution was of a type that was considered special prior to Generation IV.
- It was believed that Atsuko Nishida designed Eevee and the Eeveelutions, however she has stated on her Twitter that Motofumi Fujiwara designed Eevee, Jolteon, and Flareon while she has continued to design the rest from there.[2]
