Pokémon finally explains why we haven’t had a new Eevee evolution since 2013

It has been almost 10 years since we last got a new evolution of Eevee in any Pokémon game or anime.

That’s a long time. We’ve had so many eeveelutions from other Pokémon types and we were, at one point, supposed to get a flying type, howeverPokémondecided against it.

Why? Well, it was recently revealed in the huge Pokémon leak, where countless materials revealed the inner workings of The Pokémon Company, that they didn’t produce a flying Eevee evolution because fans beat them to it.

They’d come up with a design, but it was too similar to that of someone’s fan art.

We have to assume they tried several iterations and couldn’t come up with a good, original design.

This was recentlyrevealed on Redditto fans of Pokémon and it led to a lot of questions.

“So they do remove designs if they’re too similar to Fakemon. Woah. Who knows how many we lost because of it,”said the top comment.

And it does make you wonder.

After all, Pokémon fans have been coming up with original ideas for years and it would spell trouble if any official designs mirrored anything created for the internet.

This begs the question, will we ever see another Eeveelution?

Let’s just hope when the next game comes out The Pokémon Company have come up with a new type.
