Ahem. Greetings, and welcome back to Eeveelutional. If you would like to order a copy of the Eeveeclopedia, please send two ideas for this story along with your name and E-mail address to… I dunno where. But thank you.
And now, a pokédex entry:
Vineon
Liana
Length: 3'0"
Weight: 54 lbs.
Evolves from Eevee naturally or with Leaf Stone. A vine grows from the tip of one of its ears and around its neck and the legs of the opposite side before ending along the tail. Although most the vine comes from its right ear, on rare occasions it grows from the left. The vine always ends at the same point as the tail, so it is often confused for a double tail as in Espeons. Younger ones sometimes wrap their vine around the wrong side and may confuse themselves almost until choking. Leaves only sprout from the section surrounding its neck and front leg. It is said that on Harvest Moons the base of a high level female Vineon's vine will bloom.
And now on with the only fluffy part of this story.

Dear Diary,
Tomorrow is the big competition. The Eevee Games… I heard a rumor that there is another new species, an ice type… I think it was called Boreon, as in the Aurora Borealis… but there's one entering. This should make things a little more interesting… though I am wondering who discovered the new species… I heard the name, but I don't remember it now. Sounded familiar though, like it was someone we might have given an Eevee to. This would be the first discovery in a long time that we haven't made though… I've got mixed emotions over it… I'm happy that someone else out there has enough passion about Eevees to have discovered a new 'lution, but I'm also kind of irritated that it broke Alan and my streak of being the best Eevee experts… Hopefully this Boreon *was* one of ours, in which case we have to look up its records for who its parents were… chances are good another one from the same litter could become a Boreon too. That name is starting to have a persistent ring to it…
Speaking of persistent… little Soara takes well after her mother. I can see her father's side too… 4 days old and already loves flying. ^_^ … but as far as being like her mother, the little girl is addicted to my hat, and is every bit as adventurous as Ember was when she first hatched. Alan keeps claiming Soarcerer was like that as an Eevee too… all I remember was that Booster was not, and Ember was… and Ember keeps mumbling stuff about me needing to take a hint from her… I'm gonna have to give her a talking to if she's thinking what I think she is. I don't care what she or anybody else says… Alan is just my best friend. He's been that for nearly 15 years, and its gonna take more than another 15 to change that. Oops… here he comes… we're sleeping out in the forest outside of the park again… We made a bet though, one of the pokémon on my team wins, he pays for a hotel room tomorrow night. His team, I pay. That's why the Boreon makes things more interesting… Ember wins, we both pay because we both have Flareons right now. The Boreon wins, we sleep outside again until we get to Erecuteak. Well, I better get some sleep… big day tomorrow… Ja ne to heiwa!
~Lyra
"Alright, Twerp Jr.," she addressed Alan as she closed her diary and stuffed it in her bag. "What exactly did you mean to be doing by staring over my shoulder while I was writing in my diary?"
"Hey, I thought you were reading or sketchin' girl… give me a break, I mean you draw more than Tracey…"
"Who did you just compare me to?"
"*gulp* Never… mind…"
"I thought so. Now lets get some sleep. Ember! Ember?! *sigh*… Eonla!!!!" she completed her statement in Flareon language, yelling Ember's name, which finally worked on the Flareon, who picked her daughter up in a tiger fashion and trotted over to Lyra.
"That… I officially declare… was the oddest species combination I've ever seen. She carried Soara like a Vulpix or Sneasel, but acted like a Growlithe getting over here…"
"At least she's better off than your dad's Pikachu and mom's Togepi. Unlike those two guys she knows she's not anywhere near human."
"It was the hippie era for Pokémon, ok? They were all having identity crisises. *sigh*." It suddenly occurred to him that it was useless to argue with the girl… it had been for nearly 15 years, so why should it be different now? Over three years, on the road, in solitary confinement, with only one other person and a few Pokémon don't change people that much. He didn't realize that about 21 years earlier in nearly the same place his dad had thought nearly the same thing.
**********
"You know, guys, I've been thinking…"
"Reon…?[yeah?]"
"Don't wear yourself out, I know it's new to you."
"Ha-ha-ha. But anyway, I've been thinking… the competition is probably gonna be a little hard on Ember and Soarcerer. I mean, we can't possibly expect them to go up against each other… with their relationship…"
"Fla-fla-fla…[he-he-he…]"
"Booster, butt out of this. It's human stuff, ok, but I'm sorry. Don't give me that look. Just go."
"Reon…[alright…]"
"I see what you're getting at though, Lyra… But I think they'll be fine… I mean, look at us, we've battled plenty of times before and we're still fine…"
"But it's not the same Alan… just look at those two… I mean, they have seven kids! We… we're just best friends. For them it's gonna be fighting their own *family*… I'm not sure if they'll be alright…"
"They're strong… You raised them both, and I helped a lot with Soar… and no one said they were definitely gonna face each other."
"You're right. Let's just go to sleep."
**********
"Eefue! Eefa…"
"Huh? Oh, hi Soara… Hey, Ember… come get your daughter-"
"Reon," something grunted.
"Or… I guess Soarcerer works too. Ugh…" she complained as something rolled on top of her. "Hi Ember. Or Booster. I don't care who. *sigh* It's still dark… we can sleep some more… unless Soara wakes up again" she put her arm over it's shoulders and petted it's head.
………………
Wait a sec…That doesn't seem like it's Ember… it's not fuzzy, the hair is to long… what the…
"Mmmm… that's nice…"
?????…
"Holy crap! Alan… quit rolling over in your sleep will you?!" she shoved his head off her stomach."Huh? What'd?"
"Flar?"
"Flar…? *yawn*"
"Breez…?"
"EEEEEfffeeeeeee!!!"
"Flar…"
"Bree…"
A chorus of huhs and complaints echoes throughout the camp.
"Ow… hey… I was just paying you back for snoring the last 2 months."
"Yeah, well you could at least do it when I haven't been woken up at 1 in the morning by a baby!"
"It's 3," he groaned, the nightglow shining from his watch.
"Whatever."
"C'mon, Boost… ya gotta agree with me that was pretty funny, even though I don't know what happened."
"Reon!" Booster agreed.
"You fell asleep *on* me, Twerp Jr."
"Don't call me that! I am not my dad!"
"You argue like him!"
"You argue like mom!"
"Flae… Flaron… FLAAAAAAAAA!" Ember scolded them then Flamethrowered them.
…………*chirp, chirp*……………*chirp, chirp*……………*chirp, chirp*……………
It was unsure whether their last comments or being charbroiled like a T-bone steak shut them up… but it stopped Soara from crying too, thank goodness.
"Let's finish this when we're awake," Lyra finally decided.
"Yeah." We're not that much like my parents, are we…? That's just… it can't be…
Did he… say I'm like his mom? Then if he's like his dad… No! I don't like him, he's my best friend. The brother I never had… shoot, his whole family is my family too… like, no! Not going there still!
They were silent for the remainder of the night.
**********
"Alright then, *nothing* we said exists then, right? Ok. Now then, I'm gonna head into town and grab us some bagels and pokéchow and bagels for breakfast, since only the happy couple and their kiddy got any this morning. I'll meet you at the park before the competition," Alan said groggily.
"Which means you'll be there two minutes after the Games are supposed to begin, but they always begin 5 minutes late because they're willing only to wait that long for whoever's late, and someone's always late, and it's usually you. Right?"
"Fla-fla-fla-fla!" (times 2)
"Bre-bre-bre-bre!"
"Efa?[huh?]"
"I guess that's about right. I'll just see you then Lyra. Bye…" he turned around and walked off.
"Brezon![Alan!]" Soarcerer ran off after him, followed by Booster with Soara who had quickly asked to go with her dad.. The two girls stood watching the three guys and one baby head of into the sunrise that outlined the metropolis of Goldenrod that lay over the hill.
"Well, Ember… we better go explain to the judges why he's gonna be late." She began walking off. Ember stood her ground. "Ah, c'mon Ember… you'll see your boyfriend again in a couple hours!" she teased and was tackled by her best non-human friend.
"Flae eon,[Yours too,]" Ember quickly quipped and began trotting off.
"Huh… why you little… C'mere you!"
"Fla-fla-fla-fla!!!"
A/N (and my longest one ever at that…)
Excuse me while I laugh my head off, I just found out where they got about half the Pokémon's names… Vulpix is from vulpine: like or having features like a fox. Lol. And Umbreon from umbrae: Latin for shadow. This is a laugh riot. Can anyone tell me some more? Other than my spell check? I'll give you guys another Eeveelution Pokédex entry…
Breezeon
Soaring (now you know where we got the names)
Length: 4'2"
Weight: 54 lbs.
Evolves from Eevee naturally. Although easily the largest of the Eeveelutions, it is by far the lightest proportionately to enable it to fly. It can easily carry as much as three times its weight, and one has been recorded flying with over 250 lbs. on its back. Their wing span can reach over 16 feet, and the record setter was 18'4" from tip to tip. It can fly at speeds rivaling a Pigeotto when it has no load, reaching nearly Mach 1.5. One of the only three species, the others being Miltank/Tauros and Nidoran, that differs significantly between males and females, the females having more diverse plumage and being slightly smaller.
Thank you. I'm also laughing because the first pokémon theme song is *sooooo* Satomi oriented it ain't even funny. "Arm in arm we'll win the fight, it's always been our dream"? Lol.
Hey, anyone else made any new Eevee discoveries? We still don't have Fighting, Dragon, (pure) Rock, or one other type I'm too lazy to go check. Oh yeah, Poison! And are there new types? Plus I need more events! Shortage here… I'm only gonna be able to add one more chapter before I get massive suggestions… oh well, the race is next. Heiwa!
