Summary
Eevee’s almost unrivaled popularity and potential has made it the subject of a great deal ofPokemonfan art over the past three decades, with one fan of the franchise recently sharing their own idea of what a Flying-type Eeveelution could look like. Though much debate remains over whether Eevee is likely to ever actually receive any more new evolutions in the future, it certainly doesn’t stop creativePokemonenthusiasts from dreaming, as there are plenty of types yet unused by any member of the Eevee family.
Generally ranking high on mostPokemonfans' lists of cutest Pokemon, Eevee is easily one of the most iconic creatures that inhabits the fantasy world. While it has enjoyed a significant popularity ever since it was introduced with the Gen 1Pokemongames, in more recent years, Eevee has grown to become a mascot for the franchise alongside Pikachu. Even those who have never so much as dipped a toe into the world ofPokemonare likely familiar with Eevee, though seasoned fans of the franchise recognize it as the Evolution Pokemon, the critter with more distinct evolutionary forms than any other known Pokemon.
One Eevee enthusiast from thePokemoncommunity recently shared a fantastic design of their own which imagines what a Flying-type Eeveelution might look like. The artist, known online as dadragontype, has named this concept Griffeon, with the design itself taking inspiration from various parts of the real-world mythical Griffin, such as the feathered body and tail. The designer didn’t detail the conditions that would be required for an Eevee to evolve into this form, though any such new Eeveelution would undoubtedly be immediately beloved by most in thePokemoncommunity if anyfuturePokemongame takes the chance to introduce a new Eevee formto the family.
Here’s What This Fanmade Flying-Type Eeveelution Looks Like
Sadly, when it comes to the prospect of new official Eeveelutions, the future isn’t looking too bright. Many within thePokemoncommunity agree that if the developers behindPokemonintended to introduce further evolutions for Eevee based on the games' many other types, more recent generations would have done so by now. Mechanically, many of Eevee’s evolved forms exist to teach players about the variousmethods involved with certain Pokemon’s evolutionary processes, such as evolution through friendship, items, or even the knowledge of certain moves in the case of Sylveon.
Still, the world ofPokemonis one of near infinite potential, so anything’s possible in the future. It’s in the hands of Game Freak and The Pokemon Company to decide how to explore that potential, and with that in mind, players can look forward to what seems to be a ratherunique type ofPokemonexperienceset to launch next year.Pokemon Legends: Z-Awill be taking players back to the Kalos region during a period of renovation for Lumiose City, and though little is known about the game just yet, it appears it is to be set entirely within this bright metropolis.
