NO -EON ENDING CCCCCOMBO BREAKER *record scratch* Or that's just the Japanese name...? That is the Japanese name, from my understanding. Yup. The Japanese names don't have any sort of unified Eeveelution suffix from what I've seen. |

Also, Ninfia, The newest Eeveelution. ...That thing has absolutely no discernible type to it. What the h***. |

FIGHTING
POISON
GROUND
FLYING
BUG
ROCK
GHOST
DRAGON
STEEL
^The remaining types when we take out previous Eeveelutions.
Of the 9, I would definitively cross out Ground, Bug, Rock, and Steel; and tentatively cross out Fighting, Poison, and Ghost; which leaves Flying, and Dragon as potential types. The long flowing ribbons make me think of the air, while the color scheme looks pretty similar to Milotic which is a sea serpent-like Pokemon.

well does anyone know what Nin means? Fia is in fact a suffix the japanese use for their eveelutions. 'glacia' etc. That may explain it.
All that comes to me is... nothing, it's usually obvious.
new type?

You forgot Normal; we don't have a FULLY-EVOLVED normal Eeveelution. I'd say it's probably normal or fighting. Maybe flying. |

They have 9 more interesting types to cover, why would they choose the one that's already covered by Eevee itself? Unrelated: Since nobody else has pointed it out, its eyes look weird. |

^Normal's a better type than you think, and Eevee's a crap pokemon.

^Normal's a better type than you think, and Eevee's a crap pokemon. I never said it was bad. Just boring. You can't exploit any weaknesses with it, so to do that you have to rely on TMs, move tutors, or any of the few non-Normal offensive level-up moves they might get, which usually aren't all that impressive. |

I'm thinking more in a competitive battling simulator. |

Well, they released the English name of our new Eeveelution. It is Sylveon, which makes me think that it is a flying type for some reason....but nothing has been said about its type yet.
Come to think about it...it does sound pretty Normalish too...hmmm
And it is still following the Eon style!

i wouldn't be surprised if it was pure flying. also I like how Sylveon used moves that could be used by all of the eeveelutions, making its type ambiguous  I only have one problem with the design, and that's that its got bows on it. the other eeveelutions didn't have any sort of clothing-like features. |

What I found funny is that almost all the moves it used are normal. |
