- 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.
Eeveelution (Japanese: イーブイズ EVs[1]) usually refers to any of the eight Pokémon that evolve from Eevee and may be extended to include Eevee itself. It is a portmanteau of the words "Eevee" and "evolution".
Veevee (Japanese: ブイブイ Veevee) is a related term that usually refers to Eevee but has also been extended to include its evolutions.
Terminology
Eeveelution
"Eeveelution" 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,[2] and then later in the TCG Theme Deck Eeveelution, as well as in the game Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia.
"Eevee-Lu-Tion" is officially used as the English title of the 31st chapter of Magical Pokémon Journey. In this chapter title, Lu is the name of an Eevee.
Veevee
"Veevee" (Japanese: ブイブイ Veevee) was introduced with the Japanese name of the Eon Mail (Japanese: ブイブイメール Veevee Mail) in Generation II.
In English, this term was introduced with the move Veevee Volley in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. Pokémon Sword and Shield had NPCs in the Battle Tower use the term. Notably, Penny calls her Pokémon (several evolved forms of Eevee) her "Veevees".
List of Eeveelutions by National Pokédex order
Introduced in Generation I
In Generation I, only one Eevee is obtainable in-game, at the Celadon Mansion. It can evolve into Vaporeon, Jolteon, or Flareon through the use of an Evolution stone.
Eevee
- Main article: Eevee (Pokémon)
|
|
The Normal-type Eevee is Blue's first Pokémon in Pokémon Yellow and Trace's partner Pokémon in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu!, as well as the player's partner Pokémon in Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee!. It is also the player's first Pokémon in XD: Gale of Darkness and Conquest.
In Let's Go, Pikachu!, Trace will always evolve his Eevee into a Jolteon. The partner Eevee that the player receives in Let's Go, Eevee! cannot evolve, as it is a Partner Pokémon, but instead it has higher stats than a regular Eevee and can be taught special moves related to the types of the other Eeveelutions.
Eevee with the Gigantamax Factor are incapable of evolving, but can Gigantamax.
With eight, Eevee has the most branched evolutions. As such, in case of multiple evolutionary conditions being met simultaneously, the following is true: Leafeon and Glaceon are prioritized over Sylveon, and Sylveon is prioritized over Espeon and Umbreon.
Furthermore, Eevee will never evolve into:
- Any Eeveelution other than Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, as they are not present in those games.
- Espeon or Umbreon in Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, due to the absence of a day-night cycle.
- Leafeon or Glaceon in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, due to the absence of the areas required for the evolution in either of the regions the games are set in.
- Sylveon in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, as it is not present in those games.
Vaporeon
- Main article: Vaporeon (Pokémon)
|
The Water-type Eeveelution, Vaporeon, evolves from Eevee when exposed to a Water Stone.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Bouncy Bubble, is inspired by Vaporeon.
Vaporeon is the only Eeveelution that does not share any weakness with another.
Jolteon
- Main article: Jolteon (Pokémon)
|
The Electric-type Eeveelution, Jolteon, evolves from Eevee when exposed to a Thunder Stone.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Buzzy Buzz, is inspired by Jolteon.
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.
Flareon
- Main article: Flareon (Pokémon)
|
The Fire-type Eeveelution, Flareon, evolves from Eevee when exposed to a Fire Stone.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Sizzly Slide, is inspired by Flareon.
Flareon is the only Eeveelution with a type advantage over more than one other Eeveelution.
Introduced in Generation II
Eevee is available relatively early in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, but keeps its rarity. Generation II introduced friendship and a day-night cycle, and alongside them, two new Eeveelutions that take advantage of the new mechanics: Espeon and Umbreon. Each of Ecruteak City's Kimono Girls owns one of the five Eeveelutions that existed in Generation II.
Eevee cannot evolve into Espeon or Umbreon in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, due to the absence of a day-night cycle. However, as both are present in the games, they can be legitimately obtained in a save file by trading an Eevee to Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, evolving it there, and then trading back, or by trading from Pokémon Colosseum or Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
Espeon
- Main article: Espeon (Pokémon)
|
The Psychic-type Eeveelution, Espeon, evolves from Eevee when leveled up with a friendship of 220 or higher during the day or with a Sun ShardXD in the player's Bag, except in areas with a Moss Rock or Ice Rock, or while knowing a Fairy-type moveSMUSUMSwShLASV (and having at least two levels of affectionVI–VII).
Espeon is one of Wes's first Pokémon in Pokémon Colosseum, alongside Umbreon.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Glitzy Glow, is inspired by Espeon.
Espeon is the only Eeveelution not to have a type advantage over another.
Umbreon
- Main article: Umbreon (Pokémon)
|
The Dark-type Eeveelution, Umbreon, evolves from Eevee when leveled up with a friendship of 220 or higher during the night or with a Moon ShardXD in the player's Bag, except in areas with a Moss Rock or Ice Rock, or while knowing a Fairy-type moveSMUSUMSwShLASV (and having at least two levels of affectionVI–VII).
Umbreon is one of Wes's first Pokémon in Pokémon Colosseum, alongside Espeon.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Baddy Bad, is inspired by Umbreon.
Umbreon is the only Eeveelution:
- To not have more than a 65 base Attack and Special Attack.
- To have been introduced with a unique type combination.
- To be immune to another Eeveelution's type; in this case, Espeon.
Introduced in Generation IV
After an entire generation with no new Eeveelutions, Generation IV added another pair of Eeveelutions, Leafeon and Glaceon, which are obtained by leveling Eevee up in certain areas—another departure from the methods of evolution in previous generations. Since Generation VIII, however, they can also be obtained through the use of an Evolution stone.
Eevee cannot evolve into Leafeon or Glaceon in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, due to the absence of the areas required for its evolution in either of the regions the games are set in. However, as both are present in the games, they can be legitimately obtained in a save file by trading in from Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.
Leafeon
- Main article: Leafeon (Pokémon)
|
The Grass-type Eeveelution, Leafeon, evolves from Eevee when leveled up near a large, mossy rock or when exposed to a Leaf StoneVIII+.
- In Pokémon Sword, Shield, Scarlet, and Violet, due to the lack of a Moss Rock in Galar and Paldea, Eevee can evolve into Leafeon only through exposure to a Leaf Stone.
- In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl, and Legends: Arceus, both methods can be used to evolve Eevee into Leafeon.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Sappy Seed, is inspired by Leafeon.
Leafeon is the only Eeveelution whose base stat in Special Defense is lower than 95.
Glaceon
- Main article: Glaceon (Pokémon)
|
The Ice-type Eeveelution, Glaceon, evolves from Eevee when leveled up near an ice-covered rock or when exposed to an Ice StoneVIII+*.
- In Pokémon Sword, Shield, Scarlet, and Violet, due to the lack of an Ice Rock in Galar and Paldea, Eevee can evolve into Glaceon only through exposure to an Ice Stone.
- In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, due to the lack of Ice Stones in general, Eevee can evolve into Glaceon only when leveled up near an Ice Rock.
- In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, both methods can be used to evolve Eevee into Glaceon.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Freezy Frost, is inspired by Glaceon.
Introduced in Generation VI
Once again, an entire generation passes by before the introduction of a new Eeveelution in Generation VI: Sylveon. Its reveal also introduced the Fairy-type to the public.
Sylveon
- Main article: Sylveon (Pokémon)
|
The Fairy-type Eeveelution, Sylveon, evolves from Eevee when leveled up while knowing a Fairy-type move and having at least two levels of affection in Pokémon-AmieXYORAS or Pokémon RefreshSMUSUM, or having at least 160 base friendshipSwShLASV, except in areas with a Moss Rock or Ice Rock.
One of the Partner Eevee's signature moves, Sparkly Swirl, is inspired by Sylveon.
Sylveon is the only Eeveelution to have been introduced alone in a generation.

Vee was 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, Vee permanently evolved into an Espeon and lost this ability in the process.
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 of them owns a different Eeveelution like their game counterparts. By the end of the arc, they had also acquired a Leafeon and a Glaceon.

Pokémon Pocket Monsters
Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon appeared seen in the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga.
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. Sylveon was first introduced into the TCG in Furious Fists (if the XY Black Star Promos and the XY Trainer Kit are not counted). The most recent expansion to include the entire Eevee family is Evolving Skies.
Trivia
- Eevee's unique trait of evolving into different types can be traced back to a request made by Game Freak CEO Satoshi Tajiri to have a Pokémon that evolves into multiple types. Eevee itself was designed as a "blank slate" for its varied evolutions.[3]
- Motofumi Fujiwara designed Eevee, Jolteon, and Flareon. Atsuko Nishida designed all of the other Eeveelutions.[3][4]
- All of Penny's Pokémon are Eeveelutions, making her the only notable character to use a full team of Eeveelutions.
- All Eeveelutions initially evolved using a method that was introduced in their respective generations.
- Since Generation VIII, alternative methods of evolution have been introduced for Leafeon and Glaceon, while Sylveon's evolution requirement of affection was replaced by friendship.
- No Eeveelution is of a type that was considered physical prior to Generation IV.
- No Eeveelution has HP or Special Defense as its lowest base stat.
- The Eeveelutions were featured along with Eevee in the Eevee Essences Collection.
