This Ranged Attacker is ready to take the battle to the
opposition with a variety of mind-bending attacks. This Pokémon begins each
match as Eevee, of course, and evolves into Espeon upon reaching Lv. 4. Eevee’s
basic attack becomes a boosted attack with every third attack, dealing
increased damage, while Espeon’s basic attack becomes a boosted attack after a
set amount of time passes, causing Espeon to fire a beam in front of the itself.
The beam deals increased damage to opposing Pokémon it hits and decreases their
movement speed for a short time.
Eevee starts with the Anticipation Ability, which negates
any hindrance that would affect Eevee and causes it to become immune to
hindrances for a short time. When Eevee evolves into Espeon, its Ability
becomes Magic Bounce, which functions similarly to Anticipation when Espeon
would be affected by a hindrance. On top of that, Magic Bounce also deals
damage to the opposing Pokémon that attempted to inflict the hindrance on
Espeon and temporarily decrease that Pokémon’s movement speed. Both Anticipation
and Magic Bounce go on a short cooldown after they’re triggered.
At Lv. 1 and Lv. 2, Eevee can
learn Swift and Growl.
Eevee damages opposing Pokémon with Swift by shooting
star-shaped rays at them. Using Growl against an opposing Pokémon deals damage
to that Pokémon and decreases its movement speed for a short time.
At Lv. 4, Eevee evolves into Espeon, and Swift can be
upgraded into Psyshock or Stored Power.
Psyshock has Espeon materialize psychic projectiles that
it hurls at a designated location, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon hit by
the projectiles and decreasing their movement speed for a short time. If an
opposing Pokémon is hit by all of these psychic projectiles, that Pokémon is
left unable to act for a short time. This move can be upgraded to increase the
speed at which the projectiles travel.
By upgrading Swift to Stored Power, Espeon can unleash
blasts of psychic power at random opposing Pokémon in an area of effect, dealing
damage to them and decreasing their movement speed for a short time. Espeon
stores one blast of psychic power whenever a set amount of time passes, or
after it hits an opposing Pokémon with a boosted basic attack, and Espeon can
store up to five blasts of psychic power at once. After Espeon uses this move, its
movement speed increases for a short time. Stored Power can be upgraded to deal
additional damage to opposing Pokémon with a low percentage of remaining HP.
At Lv. 6, Espeon can upgrade Growl into either Psybeam
or Future Sight.
Psybeam has Espeon fire a peculiar ray in a designated
direction. If the ray hits an opposing Pokémon, it will then split beyond the
first Pokémon hit and deal damage to other opposing Pokémon in range. These
split rays deal more damage the higher the max HP of the first Pokémon hit by
the ray. Furthermore, if the first Pokémon hit by the ray has its movement
speed decreased or is unable to act, those same effects will be applied to any Pokémon
hit by the split rays. Psybeam can be upgraded to deal additional damage to
opposing Pokémon that are unable to act. If Psybeam then splits beyond its
initial target, its split rays will deal additional damage to opposing Pokémon
they hit and leave unable to act.
There’s a lot going on with Espeon’s move Future Sight.
When Espeon uses it, Espeon locks on to an opposing Pokémon, then deals damage
a few seconds later to opposing Pokémon in an area of effect centered on the
locked-on Pokémon. More damage is dealt the lower the locked-on Pokémon’s
remaining HP is. While Espeon is locked on to an opposing Pokémon, its other
moves will target that Pokémon whenever possible. Each time one of these moves
deals damage, Future Sight’s cooldown is reduced.
If the locked-on Pokémon is on the opposing team and is
knocked out before the area-of-effect damage is dealt, a single powered-up use
of Psyshock or Stored Power becomes available for a short time. When Psyshock
is powered up, it hurls stronger psychic projectiles at a designated location
that also cause an explosion, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon in the area of
effect. When Stored Power is powered up, it unleashes an increased number of
psychic power blasts and restores Espeon’s HP when the blasts hit.
Finally, Future Sight can be upgraded to allow Espeon to deal
increased damage to the opposing Pokémon that Future Sight is locked on to.
Once Espeon reaches Lv. 8, it learns
its Unite Move, Psychic Solare.
This move puts Espeon’s psychic
prowess on full display as it has Espeon throw opposing Pokémon in the
area of effect into the air and suspend them using its psychic power. After a
delay, an explosion occurs that deals damage to opposing Pokémon in the area of
effect and shoves them.
Your opponents won’t
know what to expect when Espeon enters the fray. Set your sights on the Espeon event to get Espeon’s
Unite license.
