because there's an eevee in the new movie that'll be a pivotal plot point, so they're pushing it as a "hey look at this cute thing, buy its merch!" sort of deal.

Because there's an Eevee in the new movie, and Ilima (one of the future Alola League participants) also has an Eevee

It honestly doesn't matter. They're BOTH trash. Eevee just exists to be a superficial female fan trap cuz there's nothing else worthwhile about it since all its evolutions are trash. Pikachu has always been awful, so it's just as irrelevant.

Eevee's kind of a no brainer
