Thing is, two out of three of these patterns are still true.

Fennec foxes are canidae, so Fennekin could be the Dog. This pattern as yet yo be completely disproved.

And Fairy type would have probably been special if announced before gen IV.

I think that Slyveon will evolve having something to do with Pokemon Amie. Since the first gen, each eevee evolution has introduced a new mechanic to the game series.
2nd gen had eeveelutions that came about from the then-new day and night cycle. (also one of them were one of the new types introduced then)
4th gen had the first location specific (Also the physical/special split, which would be leafeon/glacieon respectively)
so my opinion is that 6th gen eeveelutions has to do with the new and improved friendship system which would be pokemon amie. (also we have a new type again)

Well but magic (fairy) is logically a special move class and even with the split, in 4th gen the eevolutions were "special" type...

And anyway, dragon is the only special type with noe eevolution and would be rare to have only one special type free of eevolution, or on just eevolution in the game with no back theme...so it's like, pretty logical that there is gonna be a dragon eevolution...

I was right with the fairies, and i'm going to be right with the dragon...

That would be an excellent point if dragon were this gen eevolution, and fairy did n't exist, but with the integration of the new type, the auto weakness is not a biggest problem and have little impact on the eevee patterns.

We know Gamefreak likes releasing 2 Eeveelutions at a time. We know that one of the pair tends to be super effective against the other. We know that any pair or group of Pokémon tends to have 'opposite' stats within it. We can speculate that Sylveon is specially oriented. Sylveon is confirmed for weak to poison and steel and super effective against dragon. Which of these would sell best? Soccer moms and kids alike would probably take some offense to a more "masculine" Eeveelutions being absent. Dragon is a very popular type, far more so than steel and poison among children. Hence 135 Atk Dragon-type Sylveon counterpart. Calling it as many others have.

I don't understand why everyone is so convinced about a single possibility being correct. A Sylveon counterpart has equally good chances of happening or not happening.

On one hand, sure there are patterns. A Dragon (or even Poison) eeveelution would continue the "tradition" of counterparts in every other gen. It also would give the player a cool new option if they decided they didn't like Sylveon.

But Gamefreak breaks traditions on occasion too. There could be only Sylveon - and if the player doesn't like it, there are still 7 other eeveelutions to choose from.

There is also the issue of Gamefreak not revealing a counterpart along with Sylveon. Maybe they didn't reveal it because hell, there ISN'T one. But on the contrary, they could have simply wanted to focus on showcasing the new Fairy type and shoved the other eeveelution into the background. Who knows, really?

Personally I'd welcome a counterpart, as a Dragon eeveelution sounds interesting to me. But seriously, it could go either way here.

That's dumb. In gen 2 they had the new type be the one that was super effective.
Ever since Fairy type was rumored, I KNEW they'd make a second Eeveelution that's dragon type. There's barely even a question of if it'll happen.
I can't wait for it to be confirmed and for all of the stupid faggots who said "FAIRY TYPE WON'T HAPPEN" will be wrong again.

And that's not a pattern? Okay, so some patterns they don't do 100% like having two instead of one pseudo-legendary lines in Gen III or having an event Legendary come before the starters of its region in Gen V but there have been some patterns that they've been faithful to like your rival getting a starter that has an advantage over yours and... well I can't think of any others.

That would make no sense. They would have done this with Espeon then when Umbreon was revealed back in gen 2. But they didn't.
