There will NEVER be a ninth Eeveelution.
>>59201957That thing is fugly
Good, we could also get rid of a few existing ones.
>>59201967List the ones you would cut and why.
>>59201957Game Freak owes us the Dragon one. It completes the set; the whole Special type experience before the stats split. After that we can consign Eevee to the bin of history.
>>59201972sylveeonthose bow thing make no sense
>>59201972Sylveon because I don't believe in fairies
>>59201972Sylveon because it's stupid and the flesh ribbons biologically make no sense and it's far too feminine for a 87,5% male monVaporeon becaus eit was just gooner sex bait for actual zoophilesGlaceon because it's a goonslopmon people only like it because they stare at its ass and it has a himecutEspeon because it is only liked by people who goon to it and tailjobsLeafeon because it is stupid and biologically impossible for mammals to become plants due to their cell structure being entirely differentUmbreon because it's literally just my moms black dogJolteon because it's just the ugliest and most forgettable of the bunchFlareon because it's just fat fluffy eevee which is uncreativeEevee because if you remove the others it can't volve into anything anymore so it's a shitmon.

>>59202046This is why no one takes you seriously.
>>59201957Why will there never be another Eeveelution?
>>59202053Because Game Freak doesn't like them. They like Eevee. Eevee is marketable. No one is buying Jolteon merch.
>>59202058Is that right? I'm sure an Eeveelution would still sell more than 95% of new pokemon and it's not like one spot per new region is a loss.
>>59202068A new Eeveelution would be big news for a few days, sure. But after that, like with all Pokemon, it would vanish behind the legendaries and whatever the gimmick of that gen is.
>>59202073Sure but by purview of being an Eeveelution it would still get a minor legacy buff due to being Eevee related and the merch could still be bundled with the rest.
anyone unironically claiming people don't care about eevee, new eeveelutions, or that gf won't make new eeveelutions is trolling. It's entirely disingenuous. We know for a fact that they will make more as time goes on. We know for a fact that Umbreon was almost Poison, so the special/physical type silliness can be forgotten. We know for a fact that a Flying-type eeveelution was planned for gen 7. We know for a fact that Eevee and all of its evolutions are consistently popular. We know for a fact that adding a new eeveelution would generate sales on its own.I would wager money we'll get 2 in gen 10.
you could at least post a good design
>>59202110How much money? Because that's a helluva prediction based on fuck all.
>>59202128This is legit much, much better.
>>59202128I bet this thing wouldn't even crack NU.
>>59202138It would crack your skull wide open pal
>>59202058Ah, yes, that's why they keep shilling all of them with new merch and game/anime screentime.Sure, Eevee is the most important one, but you can't be for real saying that. All the eeveelutions are guaranteed like top 100 pokemon so obviously they'll sell.
>>59202158It's a route 1 shitmon. Bug-type? Honey? This thing learns Struggle Bug at level 49.
>>59202171>This thing learns Struggle Bug at level 49

>>59201957overdesigned
>>59202191>Being a campaignshitterStats, moves, abilities and typing are everything.
>>59202201Even in-game, some Pokemon are unusable. Spidops is a good recent example.
>>59202201>he doesn't just use the pokemon he likesit's a kids game my man, you don't need to min max and use the same team as everyone else
>>59202271Campaignshitter!
>>59201957We are getting Steel eevee in wiwa
>>59201957Delusional. It’s one of the most marketable possibilities. It’ll come eventually.
There should be a new, different pokemon with multiple evolutions only for the types eevee is missing.
>>59201957Beeveon
>>59202058>No one is buying Jolteon merchHonestly funny to read this considering I bought a Jolteon plush last week.
>>59202158I'd crack her, if you catch my drift
>>59201957Since they cut the Flying type eeveelution OP is technically right. The next eeveelution will be in actuality the tenth eeveelution. However I predict that it'll be used to introduce new type (in order to avoid fanart comparisons).
>>59202886Look forward to Audeon next year
>>59202132bout tree fiddy
>>59202207Lokix being in the same game makes spidops unusable more than anything else.
>>59202921Based
>>59201978Nah, Dragon was only a special type by technicality.Let's list every move before the split.Dragon Rage- does not use stats at all.Twister- special post-split, but it's Dragon equivalent of Ember so doesn't really matter.Outrage- physical post-split, distributed to physical attackers.Dragon Claw- physical post-split, distributed to physical attackers.Dragon Dance- boosts physical attack (and speed).Both of the prime special Dragon moves, Dragon Pulse and Draco Meteor, were introduced right after the split.Dragon-types themselves tended to be physical or mixed attackers before the split, with the exception of Latis that didn't even get any Dragon STAB in gen 3.It was never intended to be a special type, it was intended to be "your starters suck against the champion but that late route ice mon will pull in a clutch against him" ""type"", retconned into an actual type as time went and carrying the weight of being set to special in a generation where it didn't even have fucking moves until the split fixed it.
>>59201957Eww!!!
>>59201957Eevee is so popular that creating a new evolution is a super easy money generator. Everyone will need to get the new plushie or whatever other toy to complete the set. Would not surprise me if, at this point, they are holding onto future evolutions for either big anniversaries or if Pokemon is in a rough spot and needs a boost.Like Gen 7 originally had one planned, which would have been fitting since it was an anniversary. Gen 10 is also an anniversary, and with how heavily criticized Gens 8 and 9 were, I can see a new evolution potentially happening.Everyone wants a Dragon Eeveelution, but they originally were going to do Flying in Gen 7, so it could be anything.
>>59201957My dream eevee would be fighting eevee with beige brown short but soft fur, long legs, sharp claws and a muscular but slender gymnastic build with wide shoulders, a slender waist and huge thighs. Maybe add a spiked ball tail too. Eyes could be red or yellow depending on what winds up looking better. Maybe add some scars too.Should obviously have high attack and speed, sorta like Absol, and learn high jump kick.However with the state of modern Pokémon it would probably be better if fighting Eevee WOULDN'T be made because he would just suffer a miserable existance of no Mystery Dungeon, mobile cashgrabs abd piece if shit mainline games. He would probably be better off as a fakemon in a fan game.
>>59203878>Latis that didn't even get any Dragon STAB in gen 3.Your Dragon Claw TM, anon? Not to mention Dragon Breath at level 20.
>>59201984>>59201990>>59202046Let's completely remove the fairy type while were at it.
>>59201972JolteonUgly and doesn't look fuckable
>>59204071Will you say about Sound next year too?
>>59201957Fanartists over the past 30 years have been making up Eeveelution concepts and posting them online and GF refuses to use designs remotely resembling fan Pokemon so they've got nothing left
>>59204195sound type only makes sense to people who have never looked at pokemon movessound based moves already exist, throat chop already interacts with them and multiple abilities.its equally likely they make Dance into a type
You can thank fan designs for that
Gonna take this opportunity to shill some of my favourite fan designs again. These were intended to be Paradox forms, but their clean, simple designs don't really fit with that, so they could easily be regular Eeveelutions and while this artist doesn't have the greatest technical skill, I think they nailed the actual designs. Granted the fighting type needs a colour adjustment and the mane being connected to the tail is odd, but I love the tribal warrior aesthetic (WAY better than the zillionth design wearing Sonic Boom sports tape), the ears resembling little switch blades, and Warreon would be a good name (I'd love Braveon, but California would throw a shitfit).But then there's the steel type and this... THIS is fucking peak... No armour, no gears or other sharp industrial bits that make it impossible to hug, just a slick, smooth cyborg 'vee with rubbery flexible joints, beautiful ears, tail, and eyes, and an expression so exuberant it seems almost programmed to love you. It's PERFECT. Those RC plastic robot dogs were exactly what I imagined the steel type Vee ought to look like, and this slam-dunked that aesthetic. I genuinely cannot say enough good things about this design.Thoughts, gents?
