I've never been a fan of the eeveelutions. Sylveon just seems to personify the biggest criticisms of the fairy type (i.e., "overtly pink, cutesy and girly with little else about it) and it's not strong enough to be reliable either. Anything it can do pretty much any other fairy type does better, especially since it's abilities aren't great compared to other fae mons and it's move pool is shallow.
In all fairness to Sylveon, none of the Eeveelutions have particularly deep inspirations or origins behind their design, and I don't think it's the ugliest or worst of them either. But I do think that it sets a bad example of what a Fairy Pokemon can be, which is why most fairy type haters flock to using it as their go-to example. It's just so fucking bland.
