It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Eevee}} when [[level]]ed up knowing a Fairy-type [[move]] and having at least two levels of [[affection]]^{{{gen|VI}}–{{gen|VII}}} or high [[friendship]]{{sup/8|SwShLA}}{{sup/9|SV}}, except in areas with a [[Moss Rock]] or [[Ice Rock]]. It is one of Eevee's [[Eeveelution|final forms]], the others being {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}}, {{p|Flareon}}, {{p|Espeon}}, {{p|Umbreon}}, {{p|Leafeon}}, and {{p|Glaceon}}. ==Biology== Sylveon is a quadrupedal, mammalian {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} covered with pale cream-colored fur with pink feet, ears, and tail. It has light blue eyes, long ears with blue interiors and thicker fur, a tiny nose, two stray tufts of fur on top of its head, and two pointed teeth which can be seen when it opens its mouth. There are two bows on its body: one at the base of its left ear and one at its neck. Each bow is pale cream with a pink center and trails a pair of ribbon-like feelers. The feelers are pale cream, and ends at the tips with a pink stripe, then a dark blue stripe, and then a light blue color. It has slender legs with small, three-toed paws and a fluffy, slightly curved tail. Sylveon's ribbon-like feelers emit a soothing aura that erases any sense of hostility, enabling it to stop fights instantly. When hunting, it swirls its feelers as a distraction while the aura weakens feelings of hostility in its prey, then it pounces on the victim. It will also wrap its feelers around its {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s arm as they walk together, which allows it to read their feelings. When a fight breaks out between Sylveon and {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon, Sylveon will bravely charge at them even if they are much bigger than itself; in [[Galar]], this feat is told as a fairy tale. ==In the anime== ===Main series=== [[File:Penelope Sylveon.png|thumb|250px|Sylveon in the {{pkmn|anime}}]] ====Major appearances==== =====[[Serena's Sylveon]]===== {{an|Serena}}'s Eevee evolved into a Sylveon in ''[[XY105|Party Dancecapades!]]'' during a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside [[Ash's Pikachu]], where they faced off against [[Miette]]'s {{p|Slurpuff}} and [[James's Inkay]]. =====Other===== Sylveon debuted in ''[[PK25|Eevee & Friends]]'', where it showed {{AP|Pikachu}} and his friends around its home, and introduced them to {{p|Eevee}} and its fellow [[Eeveelution]]s.

GameXplain. ''YouTube.''</ref><!--presumably this does not count mons that are retroactively retyped into Fairy like Jigglypuff--> ===Origin=== In contrast to the rest of the Eeveelutions' pointed ears, Sylveon's ears are large and rounded, giving it a resemblance to {{wp|rabbits}}. Fairies were thought to be particularly active under the light of the full moon; because of this and the rabbit association, Sylveon could be based on the mythical Asian {{wp|moon rabbit}}. The moon rabbit is often portrayed as a companion of the Chinese moon goddess {{wp|Chang'e}}, who is frequently depicted wearing a robe adorned in many ribbons, which is likely referenced with Sylveon's feelers. Sylveon may also be based on {{wp|Kaltes-Ekwa}}, a moon goddess in Ugrian mythology who shape-shifted into a hare. In addition, its cries depicted in [[New Pokémon Snap]] are similar to that of a {{wp|cat}} and might likely be based on the fictional {{wp|cabbit}} hybrid. ====Name origin==== Sylveon may be a combination of ''{{wp|sylph}}'' ({{wp|elemental}} of air commonly identified with fairies) and ''eon'' (an immeasurably long period of time, possibly referring to how long evolution takes naturally). ''Eon'' is a suffix all {{p|Eevee}} [[evolution]]s share and was Eevee's English prototype name. Nymphia may be derived from ''{{wp|nymph}}'', a class of female nature deities in Greek mythology commonly associated with fairies. ==In other languages== {{Other languages|type=Fairy|type2=Fairy |ja=ニンフィア ''Nymphia''|jameaning=From ''{{wp|nymph}}'' |fr=Nymphali|frmeaning=From ''nymph'' and ''-li'' (common suffix for all Eeveelutions in French) |es=Sylveon|esmeaning=Same as English name |de=Feelinara|demeaning=From ''{{tt|Fee|fairy}}'', ''feeling'', and ''-a'' (common suffix for all Eeveelutions in German) |it=Sylveon|itmeaning=Same as English name |ko=님피아 ''Nymphia''|komeaning=From 님프 ''nymph'' and the transcription of Japanese name |zh_cmn=仙子伊布 ''Xiānzǐyībù''{{tt|*|Games, Post-Gen VII media}}<br>仙子精靈 / 仙子精灵 ''Xiānzǐjīnglíng''{{tt|*|Pre-Gen VII media}}|zh_cmnmeaning=From {{tt|仙子 ''xiānzǐ''|fairy}} and 伊布 ''{{p|Eevee|Yībù}}''<br>From {{tt|仙子 ''xiānzǐ''|fairy}} and {{tt|精靈 / 精灵 ''jīnglíng''|spirit, fairy, elf; former suffix for Eeveelutions in Mandarin}} |zh_yue=仙子伊布 ''Sīnjíyībou''{{tt|*|Games, Post-Gen VII media}}<br>仙子伊貝 ''Sīnjíyībui''{{tt|*|Pre-Gen VII media}}|zh_yuemeaning=From {{tt|仙子 ''sīnjí''|fairy}} and 伊布 ''{{p|Eevee|Yībou}}''<br>From {{tt|仙子 ''sīnjí''|fairy}} and {{tt|伊貝 ''Yībui''|former translation of Eevee}} |hi=सिलवीओन ''Sylveon''|himeaning=Transcription of English name |ru=Сильвеон ''Sil'veon''|rumeaning=Transcription of English name |th=นิมเฟีย ''Nimfia''|thmeaning=Transcription of Japanese name }} {{-}} ==Related articles== *[[Serena's Sylveon]] * [[Eeveelution]] ==References== {{reflist}} ==External links== {{PokémonPrevNext/Head|type=Fairy}} {{PokémonPrevNext/Pokémon|type=Fairy|prevnum=0699|prev=Aurorus|nextnum=0701|next=Hawlucha}} |} {{Project Pokédex notice}} [[Category:Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions]] [[Category:Pokémon that appeared in the anime before their game debut]] [[Category:Super Smash Bros. trophies]] [[de:Feelinara]] [[es:Sylveon]] [[fr:Nymphali]] [[it:Sylveon]] [[ja:ニンフィア]] [[zh:仙子伊布]]
