Summary
- A Pokemon fan has created designs for a new Eeveelution.
- They’ve imagined what a Ghost, Flying, or Dragon-type evolved Eevee might look.
- There are theories Pokemon is planning to reveal a ninth Eeveelution this year.
Between Pokemon declaring 2025 the Year Of Eevee and artwork for this year’s Pokemon Day sparking a theory, quite a few of you are convinced that by the end of the year, we will have been shown a ninth Eeveelution. In anticipation of that, one fan has taken it upon themselves to dream up what a new evolved form of Eevee might look like.
Eevee currently has eight different Pokemon it can evolve into, each a different type. That means if there is going to be a ninth, The Pokemon Company will likely use a type that hasn’t been used for an Eeveelution already. If it were up to a Pokemon fan who goes by u/Poetically_Imperfect on Reddit, the next type Eevee will evolve into will either be Ghost, Dragon, or Flying.

Eevee and two of its most popular Eeveelutions join the Comfy Friends collection.
Poetically_Imperfect has shared their designs on the r/pokemon subreddit, creating two variants for each of the three types to celebrate their own birthday and last week’s Pokemon Day. They’ve even come up with suggestions for what the ninth Eeveelution could be called. Nimbeon for the Flying-type, Wispeon for the Ghost-type, and Drakeon for the Dragon-type.
A Pokemon Fan Has Created Their Own New Eeveelution Designs
Ghost, Flying, And Dragon-Type Eevees
The Dragon-type Eeveelutions look like they’re covered in scales and come in either green or yellow, the Flying-types have a cloud-like look with one sky blue and the other a pale yellow, and the Ghost-types are black, white, and blue or black, white, and pink. If one of these designs were to be made canon, the blue Wispeon would get my vote. A very cool design, and that the Pokemon is ever so slightly translucent is a neat detail.
Poetically_Imperfect has jokingly been called a coward for not including a Bug-type Eeveelution in their designs. u/Itsgerd18 has stepped up in the comments, sharing their own Bug-type Eevee and dubbing it Aracneon.
As great as it is to see these fanmade Eeveelutions, creations like these are partly to blame for why there hasn’t been a new Pokemon for Eevee to evolve into since Sylveon. Last year’s Game Freak leak revealed there were once plans to introduce a Flying-type Eeveelution. However, Pokemon’s design was deemed too close to a fanmade one doing the rounds so the idea was scrapped through fear The Pokemon Company would be accused of copying it.
The Pokemon Day theory pointed to a hot air balloon that had a color to represent each of the eight existing Eeveelutions. There was an extra color that hadn’t been accounted for which led some to believe Pokemon was teasing a new Eeveelution. If that is going to be the case, and the new Eeveelution will be in Pokemon Legends: Z-A, we haven’t been shown it yet.
