First time playing
>>59301349Wrong pic but why does Eevee look like this
>>59301349Dunno but I always used Vaporeon
>>59301349The best one is always the one you like the most
>>59301357/thread
>GoodJolteon, Espeon>BadFlareon, Umbreon>Please kill yourselfVaporeon, Eevee
>>59301353Holy shit what the fuck what's wrong with that thing
>>59301353>>59301404It's taken from the Stadium games, where it looked just as awkward.
>>59301353because it caught you fapping in front of the desk
>>59301349if u want to use Magneton like ur pic it's good with Vaporeon, Shadow Magneton has Rain Dance when u catch it in XD
Espeon > Jolteon > Vaporeon > Flareon > Umbreon
>>59301356How do you use Vaporeon?
>>59301471Water stone
>>59301403Why does Vaporeon suck in Gale?
>>59301403? Flareon is good. Flamethrower, Shadow Ball, Quick Attack, and Protect so you can spam EQ.Umbreon isn't bad it's just gonna make battles take longer.
>>59301505its best attacking move is Water Pulse until postgame so its lacking in STAB moves, however it has Helping Hand and Icy Wind for support moves and Water Absorb to sit next to a Surf spammer
>>59301505Vaporeon SUCKS in GoD because the only good water STAB it gets is Water Pulse.This was less of a problem when the OG game came out cuz u could just take it to the any gen 3 game and slap on Surf but in the Switch version, yeah, it's dogwater.
>>59301505It doesn't. It unfortunately doesn't get a better water move than Water Pulse until beating the game, but it still hits hard off of 110 Sp Attack and has very good bulk. Plenty of utility too with Helping Hand and Icy Wind.
>>59301353Because the gamecube games were cashgrabs but shh that will ruin the good old days narrative
>>59301403I guess it depends on what are looking to do.Jolteon and Espeon hit hard af, but are frail. If you are looking to capture shadow Pokemon then they are gonna get slammed by super effective shadow attacks.Vaporeon and Umbreon are solid. Umbreon has terrible offensive power and Vaporeon doesn't get surf so you are relegated to Hydro Pump or Water Pulse. But both are bulky and can tank shadow hits.
>>59301349your favorite>but metagamingKYS
>>59301357>>59301573>>59301587My favorites are Leafeon and Jolteon but one is obviously unobtainable and I just used the other in FRLG so I picked Espeon. I was thinking Claydol as my Psychic option but my friend said it was cheeks. Thank you guys for the answers it’s cool seeing how the Eeveelutions are favored
>>59301349I believe the speedrun uses Espeon simply for the pure offensive firepower. 130 base attacking stat with a 90 base power STAB move and enough speed to outrun basically everything in the game when EVs are taken into account. Jolteon is just a budget Espeon, and the rest struggle to do anything.
>>59301353it tried to be likd its cousin ryo-ohki
>>59301714Oh, I forgot to mention that Flareon is actually kinda usable because it’s the only one that has an attack stat and can therefore actually use coverage moves, since all the coverage moves the Eeveelutions have access to in Gen 3 are physical (Return, Shadow Ball, Dig, and Iron Tail). But it’s slow and its STAB is weak because of its mediocre special attack, so it’s definitely still worse than Espeon and Jolteon.
>>59301646I always throw my vote in for Flareon just cus I think he's underrated. The only thing that prevents me from picking him is my favorite Pokemon is Arcanine. Gotta have my ARKY
>>59301353Its got rabies. And mange.
>>59301353Unironically I like the way it looks. Bad angle, but its kino in its own retro way. Before things got so..sanitized? Washed out? Lifeless?
>>59301828>sanitized? Washed out? Lifeless?The word you're looking for is obviously "soulless".
>>59301808I agree Flareon is underrated but it’s the one I used the most recently in XY otherwise I’d use it here. People forget about the 95 SpA
>>59301543>This was less of a problem when the OG game came out cuz u could just take it to the any gen 3 game and slap on SurfBut you can only do that in the postgame, so you're still stuck with Water Pulse for all meaningful content except the Orre Colosseum.
I chose Flareon.
>>59301349is this real?
Just remember to make Save States constantly, saving in-game doesn't prevent data loss if the game crash.
>>59301541Wait a minute, I played these games 20+ years ago. Surf didn't hit your ally in gen 3.
