Tokyo Tower is similar but not exact to the tower in france... oxo,

also.. NEW EEVEE EVO!


x3 wootz

[Lucid:]

It's so PINK and so CUTESY! What type is it? :O

[Demonskid]

No one knows yet :3 the magazine only gives its height and weight

Its first Appearance will be in the new pokemon movie which will be in Japan Theaters in July.. DVD release should be around the time the games are released in October.

Might be a new Type :3

Its soooo cute I wants one D: *goes to breed a shiz ton more eevee to prepare for this new one* *u*

[Tiva]

Omg I want it!

[Illusion]

This Pokemon (That I'm assuming is a Eevee evolution) makes me believe more and more that there will be introducing Light Type Pokemon.
It will make the whole Xerneas Typing a lot more sense then steel/grass or a normal type.

That and there is a lot of Pokemon that can use a Light typing (Sunflora, Bellossom, and maybe even mew or Cresselia)

[Ashy]

Solarbeam becomes light attack :O

[Illusion]

That would be awesome! :D

I hope that the rumored Sound type is true also.

[hyjin]

GIVE ME THAT EEVEE

[Tiva]

...... it is 3 feet tall and 50 lbs....

[Illusion]

LET ME LOVE LOVE YOU EEVEEVOLUTION!

[Xyphlan]

I cannot imagine what typing this eeveelution could possibly have that I would find satisfying. From it's coloring, I believe it most likely to be a normal type, as its color scheme seems nearly identical to that of Audino's. The problem with that is that a Normal-type Eeveelution would be stupid. Eevee is already normal, and no one wants more normal Pokemon. Any other typing would be inconsistent with its coloring and general appearance. The only other type I could imagine would be psychic, which is already occupied by Espeon.

There is some speculation that it could be dual-type, but that doesn't solve the problem. It just means that there are 2 types that don't make sense, rather than one. I've explained my feelings on new types previously in this thread, but to recap: It's too late. If a new type were introduced, it would find itself severely underrepresented, even if some old Pokemon were retconned to have that new type. Also, while light would probably be good against ghost and dark, it's hard to think of what it would be ineffective against, or how any of sound's type match-ups would go. Perhaps it could be a neutral type that is neither bad nor good against anything, but that position is more-or-less covered by dragon-type.

Even if it were a light type, I have faith in Game Freak to construct a sprite that conveys Light better than this, as there is little to suggest that as its typing. And, as long as I'm being a crotchety old man, I might as well point out that Ninfia is just it's Japanese name. They're not breaking away from the "-eon" suffix. Leafeon and Glaceon had the Japanese names Leafia and Glacia, so this makes sense. "Ninfia" also does nothing to indicate its type, at least with respect to the English Language, so it seems unlikely that they would decide to break the trend of giving eeveelutions type significant names.

But with the right stats and ability, I'd probably like him, regardless.

xD it is a eevee evo.

Its sooo cute x3 So happy Asami told me about it and then i searched info on it on serebii <3

Here's what Bulbapedia has on it: Linky

Ninfia is the lightest Eeveelution.

:O

That said, it just doesn't look like "light" to me. If the coloring was more prismatic, I could see it, but pink with a few blue spots doesn't seem like light to me. But it doesn't look like fighting, dragon, ghost, or any other type either.
Also, if they were introducing sound types as well, I would think there would be an eeveelution for both sound and light, not just one of them. But maybe there's another eeveelution or maybe it's only one new type. Who knows.

nin (忍) is a phono-semantic compound composed of two greater characters. The upper character ha or jin (刃) is the phonetic indicator; it means "edge of the sword". The lower character kokoro or shin (心) means "heart" or "soul". The compound means "stealth", "secrecy", "endurance", "perseverance", and "patience".

nin in the direct translation means "shinobi" >.>

it doesnt look very ninja-y to me <.<

@lucid i think they mean weight wise, thats why people think it may be flying

[hyjin]

lol ashy that is a creepy picture

[Lucid:]

xD I know they meant weight-wise, I just thought it was funny.
I guess it looks about as flying-type as Shaymin, which doesn't look flying-type at all.
