Pokemon.com has updated earlier this morning with a big update: they have officially unveiled the newest evolution of Eevee, Sylveon! This new Pokémon was recently revealed in the Japanese CoroCoro magazine by its Japanese name, Ninfia, although we now can see its names in all of the major languages. Additionally, the update contains screenshots of Sylveon in battle, as well as a video showcasing its moves!
While its height and weight have been confirmed as 3' 3" and 51.8 lbs. respectively, its type and how you obtain it are still shrouded in mystery.
Here are some screenshots of Sylveon in action:
Additionally, today's European Nintendo Direct broadcast has confirmed the release date of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity for Europe: May 17th! Still no word yet on the Australian release date, though.

Posted 2/14/2013 11:23:56 AMThe variety of moves shown is interesting. It looked like Swfit, Charge(?), and a possible fire type move?

Posted 2/14/2013 12:00:15 PMMaybe that fiery beam thing is Hyper Beam. If so, it's using what looks like Swift, Trump Card, and Hyper Beam. (I still can't figure out what that electricy one is). And those are all normal type moves... So maybe it really is normal type. o.o
yaaay.

Posted 2/14/2013 1:09:02 PMWould be interesting to give Eevee a Evolution besides Happiness and stones.

Posted 2/14/2013 2:26:33 PMI really do think that Sylveon is a normal-type Pokemon. It also looks like a mystical-like Pokemon. Could it be a Dragon? Also, couldn't it be a dual-type? Generation 6 looks like it will break somethings, maybe a dual-type Eeveelutions. If it is a dual-type and it feels like a flying-normal-type Pokemon. At first I didn't like the design, but now I really think this one looks very unique of the Eeveelutions. I think that the Dawn or Shiny Stone will be required to evolve it, actually.

Posted 2/14/2013 3:14:02 PMSylveon's name could be based off of the sylph, which is an air elemental closely related to faeries. Sylphs are also exclusively female, which could make getting this Eeveelution a big pain in the rear if they are really using that mythical creature as basis.

Posted 2/14/2013 5:58:48 PMIt could also be based on nymphs, because its French name is Nymphali. Also, female Eevees aren't that hard to obtain, from my experience

Posted 2/15/2013 8:57:48 AMActually, there is only a 25% chance of female Eevees appearing. Sometimes it's near impossible to get one if you're unlucky.

This is where I put a witty quote from someone. I guess this'll have to do.
