Pokemon X & Y: New Eeveelution! Ninfia!

Normal, water, fire, electric, psychic, dark, ice, grass, and now....Ninfia?

Joining the previous 7 eeveelutions (8 if you count Eevee) is the newest addition to the Eevee lineage- Ninfia.  This new Pokemon was announced in the recent edition of Japan's CoroCoro Comics. Ninfia, whose name comes from the flower, Ninfea, is a pink version of the typical quadrapedal eeveelution. With it's wispy, ribbon like attachments  and butterfly shaped bows, many speculate that this Pokemon is either bug or flying (as it pays close resemblance to Skyla of Pokemon B&W).

I think it's gorgeous. It's the Eevee version of Milotic

Some believe that it's even part of the a new, 18th, type of Pokemon. There are rumors of a new "light" type pokemon that would be effective against "dark" type pokemon. Others have heard rumors of a "digital"type.

This is all the news we have on Ninfia so far. It's english name, type, ability, and type of evolution has yet to be announced.

Ninfia's debut movie: Pikachu
and Eevee Friends

More information should be coming out with the release of Japan's newest Pikachu- short movie Pikachu and Eevee Friends. For now, we're left guessing.



What do you guys think this new eeveelution is like? Are you a bug advocate, flying believer, or new type conspirator? Post your thoughts in the comments below!

Agonizing over this new eeveelution could be,
