Just call me AL Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Did you guys just seriously think the "Blacky" for Umbreon was racist? It's Black and Lucky smooshed together because black cats are lucky there. It just sounds dumb to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 It just sounds dumb to me. A lot of Japan's crap *SHOULD* sound dumb to you. Otherwise... yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irysa Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) It's more like 90% of Pokemon names that aren't legendaries don't have a terribly large amount of effort put into them and are usually puns, in ALL languages. I do think that the english eeveeloution names turned out pretty nicely though what with the "eon" tag thing holding them together. Speaking as a Latin studier I'm also fond of Umbreon's name since it's nice when they delve out of plain english for stuff. I'm still that gigantic weeb who likes to have a female Umbreon named Tsuki though. I used to kind of dislike Sylveon's design because of the eyes, but the fanart of it with actual pupils and stuff makes me appreciate the design more.

Just call me AL Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Give me a female Vaporeon named "Undine" any day. And while we're at it, add in Acid Armor to that Vaporeon's moveset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) I still find it funny that an Eeveelution in Gen 6 had the same name of a forged Silver Sword (more or less) in 2012: Edited August 27, 2014 by shadowofchaos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Flareon is my favorite, followed closely by Sylveon and Leafeon. :3 How I rank the Eeveelutions from best to worst (design-wise really): 1. Flareon 2. Sylveon 3. Leafeon 4. Umbreon 5. Glaceon 6. Vaporeon 7. Jolteon 8. Espeon Sorry, but I never understood why Espeon was so popular. It looks really bland to me and it also looks cat-like. Never liked cats much. Or Psychic types. I love Flareon because it's a cute fluffy Fire type! <3 Sylveon is just plain CUTE and I really dig the Fairy type. :D Also, the lack of love for Leafeon disappoints me. :( Edited August 27, 2014 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freohr Datia Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) You don't get it because your opinions differ is all there is to it, imo~ As far as I've seen, people seem to like Espeon both/either based on appearance and competitive use. I'd say Espeon's my second favourite~! (And I'm the one who judges on appearance) Edited August 27, 2014 by Freohr Datia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 True, but I still don't get it. lol I'm glad Flareon has gotten better competitively though. It used to be bad because it lacked good physical Fire type moves and such. But now it has weapons like Flare Blitz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freohr Datia Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Well if it helps you understand better, I love Espeon for how feminine and dainty and elegant they look (all qualities that I tend to like ^o^ I'm such a girl). I also do quite like cats! =o For many people the cat-like appearance would be a plus, rather than the minus that it is for you. Despite the simple appearance they still look quite adorable and pretty. And ahhhhhh the lovely lavender colour~ And... I have no issues with any types, really, so being psychic doesn't affect my opinion at all The competitive use doesn't make much a difference to me, but I do at least appreciate that it can be pretty useful in battle~! And I always love using the more fast pokemon ;u; Edited August 27, 2014 by Freohr Datia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Ball and either Signal Beam or Dazzling Gleam are great coverage for it. Most Eeveelutions lack this boon.Glaceon's mid tier placement on your list upsets me, but that's mainly because I find Glaceon to be the cutest.

shadowofchaos Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I'm sad Umbreon doesn't get Crunch or the physical attack and speed to make use out of it as a "Swift Attacker" role. I mean I would have thought it was that with how Pokemon Colosseum was setup, with an Espeon as a partner to your Umbreon for your starters. ...Then again, reality and what I want is different. I haven't ever been in the competitive scene. I'm a filthy casual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Masayoshi Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I thought Umbreon is a defensive tank, Foul Play, Toxic, Moonlight, other move here and things It's not meant for attacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Me Yeah, but we're like the only two people out of how many voters. xP Glaceon's mid tier placement on your list upsets me, but that's mainly because I find Glaceon to be the cutest. Eh, we seem to pretty much always have vastly different opinions, so I'm not surprised that that still holds true here. I do like Glaceon though, don't get me wrong. The only Eeveelution I genuinely don't like is Espeon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Umbreon should probably run: Foul Play Toxic Protect Moonlight or Wish Inner Focus as an ability, since Toxic makes Syncronise near useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irysa Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 That's exactly what I meant. I am SAD because of that. Curse + Payback practically does the same thing but better, since it buffs her defensive too! I mean, you can definitely make low atk actually feel somewhat relevant via boosts, but 65 isn't anywhere near swift, and movepools won't save it.
