The first (and best) Eeveelution has been revealed from Pokemon Card 151! The set will release in Japan on June 16th. We expect to it release internationally as a special set this fall.
Vaporeon – Water – HP130
Stage 1 – Evolves from Eevee
[W] Spiral Drain: 30 damage. Heal 30 damage from this Pokemon.
[W][C][C] 90+ damage. If your opponent’s Active Pokemon is a Pokemon ex or Pokemon V, this attack does 90 more damage.
Weakness: Lightning (x2)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 2
Actually a cool point, unfortunately vaporeon doesn’t hit anything and has overlap with Glaceon, also Eevee box seems kinda cooked by Lost Box so until we see a counter card it’s kinda off the table.
The card specifically refers to ex and V, not all rule box Pokemon
There isn't a adaptive evolution eeeve, are you thinking about the Resonating Evolution one???
I know, I'm not asking the translator, I'm asking the designer.
I think because it just wants to be targeting the big 2 prizers, probably meant to KO big basic exs with a damage modifier, not go after Radiants.
Tbh facts. I feel like they design one prize attackers to need draw backs as if they would be broken without them but then print Lugia + Archeops so, shrug. But it's the shiny ex cards people want to buy so.
It can once you factor in Weakness. Eevee has always lent itself to that sort of deck style, so to have a relatively easy to power up move to hit specific numbers is well within its wheelhouse.
This vaporeon 2hko everything in the format, so it hits hard enough. We need to see the other eeveelutions, the only other decent one we have in the format is a promo sylveon, all the others are really bad.
