This morning, Pokemon.com officially unveiled Ninfia, whose English name is now Sylveon! While its type is still unknown, we now known Sylveon's name in several different languages, have Imperial heights and weights for it, and some gameplay footage of Sylveon was also posted along with some new screenshots.
Well, Nymph is still a major clue. In the French name it is named NYMPHali. Nymphs are a Greek Mythology creature. Usually living in the forest. But are just mainly apart of nature. I'm am going out on a limb and saying that Sylveon is probably not a Normal Tupe anymore. My suspicions on a flying type are slowly growing.
when i first saw this (without reading yet) i thought it was some new legendary. but i noticed how much it looked like an eeveelution; and it turned out it was ^^ i was thinking ghost at first but it also looks kind of like a normal type(since it reminds me of skitty and its evolution). flying is a good idea too though, since it sort of reminds me of shaymin as well. duel type is a good thought too. i dont mind either way, but i would prefer a little more it would be a one-type pokemon. since all the other eevees are.
Bug. Those are not bows, they are butterflies. Nympth is close to Nature and Woodlands, and the name Sylveon makes me think of silk worms and chitin (which is what some insect shells, wings and even fungus is made of). Watching the video, I thought I recognized a Focus Blast attack, listening all attacks made had a Normal Effectiveness against each Pokemon-IE nothing was super effective. It MIGHT be fighting. Bug Or Fighting.
I'm going to try to ignore the news about the new Pokemon, so that when the games come out I'll be like WOAH! WHAT IS THAT THING! when i play it... ... ... ... This is going to be hard...
