SPOILER ALERT: New Eeveelution

[Exflar]

Recent information has leaked from next month's CoroCoro Magazine issue. The cover featured a silhouette of a new Generation VI pokemon. Within the magazine, it is revealed that Ninfia (ニンフィア) is the silhouetted pokemon. Ninfia is confirmed to evolve from Eevee; type and method of evolution are currently withheld.

What type do you think it is? How will it evolve? Let the speculation begin!

Edit: New information has surfaced, Ninfia's English name is revealed to be SYLVEON.

I promoted this to a News Article. Speculation can go on there as well

By it's name i would guess it's either Poison or Fighting but it doesn't really look like either maybe it looks more like a normal type.

Imo it looks much like a Normal, Ghost, or Bug-Type to me. It's name makes me lean more towards Bug, however I wouldn't be surprised if it was Fighting.

I'm going with what The Lone Renegade said, flying

Silhoutte looks like a bug type to me.

The non-silhouette picture looks..
What THE HECK ARE YOU THINKING POKEMON?!

It looks normal and something that I would NOT have on my team.

It looks Milotic-ish to me. Especially the ear color.

[TheManyFacesOfGlalie]

It also reminds me of Milotic, but at the same time it also has some resemblances to Skitty, Victini (just only see the face), and Happiny. The colors remind me of Milotic, the overall design makes me think of Skitty, the face is literally Victini with bunny ears, and the bow makes me think of Happiny.

Pretty much... I wouldn't mind seeing how it fares in battle soon!

I do wonder if it'll just be one new Eeveelution... Usually when new ones have been released, they've been in pairs... (Espeon and Umbreon, and Leafeon and Glaceon.) So I personally hope there will be a ninth Eeveelution as well as Ninfea being the eighth...

[EllaJaneBinks]

I think it looks adorable I just hope it's strong because I want to see more cute, powerful Pokemon that are actually usable. I don't actually think it looks that much like an Eeveelution.
It looks like the normal type - but seeing as they already have a Normal type Eevee, perhaps they'll introduce a whole other Pokemon type?
If not then maybe a second Normal Evo that carries on from the base Eevee, if that's possible..
Here's to fingers crossed!

P.s I think people should stop hating on the new Pokemon that come out.. why all the hate guys, I thought we all loved this game? The Gen 5 Pokemon are actually quite charming and witty if you take the time to see it and keep an open mind, other than trying to be such tough critiques. Remember, there's only so much a person can do with all the animals and objects we have in this world, if they tried any harder we'd get Pokemon that look like Digimon or Transformers or something. So I say be happy with what we've got and what we'll get! Let's all just enjoy!

I don't care what type it is. Its an eeveelution and it's going on my team.

[DejaVu146]

I've heard rumors for a while (I think ever since 3rd Gen) of a possible "Light" type, so you would have Light & Dark. If this does come true in this Generation, I can it being revealed this early to possibly announce a new type. It makes sense, the weight, color, etc and that would make sense as to why they are keeping it a mystery.

[CammyCoolPants]

well I done some investigation into our new little friend and come up with only one little tiny fact the fact is that it can use swift in some of the pictures you can clearly see stars all around it then in the next picture it sending it towards a pokemon (which is out of camera) so whether this means its a normal type or not I cant confirm but does seam more likely to me

[EllaJaneBinks]

I'd love a new Pokemon type such as Light. It might throw things off balance a little bit but it makes sense to me and would bring something really different to the game!
