Pokémon Officially Debuts Gorgeous New Eeveelution Designs For 30th Anniversary

Known as 'Cyberpunk 2077's' biggest fan, Angharad is a Welsh games writer who thrives in anything related to digital storytelling. If a video game explores the intricacies and horrors of womanhood, she is there.

Thanks to previous work at GAMINGbible, GameByte, The Loadout, Game Luster, Angharad has built a strong understanding of both the digital world and what fans want from it and is eager to share her thoughts and expertise with readers.

It has been an exciting year for Pokémon fans. Not only is the Nintendo franchise celebrating its 30th anniversary, marking three decades since the first title, Pocket Monsters Red and Pocket Monsters Green, were released in Japan, but fans also received news of the next major entry, Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves, which is set to arrive some time in 2027.

Not only will it be the first mainline entry since 2025's Pokémon Legends: Z-A, but it will also kickstart Gen 10 of the beloved franchise, and with it expected to be bigger, better, and more ambitious than previous entries, a lot is riding on Winds and Waves which will take players to a trophical archipelago complete with multiple underwater areas, adorable Starter 'mon, and a rumored 300+ new additions to the Pokédex.

However, with Winds and Waves still a few months from launch, let us return to the present to discuss one of the Pokémon fanbase's favorite characters: Eevee.

Introduced in the first generation of Pokémon, Eevee has remained a fan favorite for the past 30 years, and due to her ongoing appearances, she has been the subject of multiple evolutions: eight to be exact. Including Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon, and Sylveon, you would think that she has plenty of variations under her belt. However, with her most recent evolution, Sylveon, taking place way back in 2013 with Pokémon X and Y, it is safe to say she is due for another.

Whilst it remains to be seen if Eevee will receive her ninth evolution in Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves, there is a way to get your hands on a stunning reminder of all of her current forms courtesy of a teased Eeveelutions Pokémon TCG Figurine Set.

Shared over on Poké Beach, we can see the latest Eevee and her evolutions in figure form courtesy of Pokémon China. Whilst no release date, prices, or further details have yet been confirmed, we can see the stunning figures, and with each Eeveelution covered, this is a treasure trove for fans of the beloved 'mon.

Over on r/PokeInvesting, fans discussed the latest merchandise, with one user sharing, "This has been my favorite new product to watch from the sidelines. I wonder what the secret rare will be."

Hopefully, we will receive more information about this upcoming merchandise drop soon, but for now, it just gets us even more excited about a potential brand-new Eevelution taking place in Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves. At the time of writing, this has not been confirmed nor hinted at, but if there has ever been the perfect time, it is during the franchise's 30th anniversary celebrations.
