Yeah, but Sylveon itself looks like a woman's pampered pet covered in ribbons rather than something you would find in the woods

What names would you guys come up with for other eevee evolutions? For a steel type I think Ferreon would be cool, ferrous or ferric relating to iron

Why didn't they just name it 'Nympheon'? Too close to nymphomaniac or something?

That one is p decent, though doesn't roll easily off the tounge with the gl part. Someone before suggested Vertreon which I think would've been the best.

This always bugged me, especially now that Leafeon evolves by stone.

Leafeon has leaves on its chest and one on the nape, and Sylveon has a bow with feelers on its neck. They're sort of collars, but Glaceon is completely naked.

What should i evolve my Eevee into? Best all rounder? It's at level 15, but i'm looking towards whats best endgame. Also, it was given to me by its owner, so i think its called an outsider.

I remember that before Fairy was announced there were people who thought it was gonna be Flying because of sylphs being air elementals.

They designed it first probably.

A "spook" is a racial slur for a black person so i don't think they will call it spookeon.

In-game? Espeon and Umbreon are your strongest options for different reasons.

Umbreon is your "let's toxic-confuse ray-protect stall anything up to 20 levels higher that doesn't have Fighting STAB" bro. If you want to have an easy time with a legendary, a strong trainer, a champion or some of the Elite 4, Umbreon will cheese straight through. Anticlimatic, though.
Cheesed the big scary Giratina with a level 26 Umbreon in first ever playthrough of Platinum. Wasn't enjoyable after how much she was foreshadowed as a threat, especially after a viciously hard and agressive battle right before encountering her.

Espeon, meanwhile, is just a good old strong-and-fast sweeper - nothing special in competitive play, but in-game, it can be all you need in 99% of battles. The great big honking secref of most mainline games is that you can just level up a Kadabra/Espeon/Infernape/Starmie/Mismagius/nearly any legendary/Jolteon/Galvantula/heck, Dedenne, click STAB/coverage and sweep through 99% of stuff (doesn't work as well with similar physical threats, because there are far more stupid useless physical walls than special ones; though a Crobat or Aerodactyl can wreck a lot of shit for being so accessible, too). Espeon is worse than Alakazam but easier to access; better than Kadabra; and arguably better than everything else on the list save Infernape. So it's a "fair" easy modo that lets you breeze the game on sheer power but doesn't overpower level+10 opposition or competitively optimised teams (still not useless against those, but needs a HA, is prone to dying a lot and being compared to worse Alakazam/Tapu Lele etc).

can confirm, umbreon killed Red's Snorlax by just stalling with Toxic, with like 20 levels of disadvantage
