About Umbreon

Umbreon is a Dark-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II and cataloged as National Pokédex number 197. In the core series games, it evolves from Eevee when their friendship is high and the evolution takes place at night. Its black body, yellow ring markings, and red eyes create a distinctive nocturnal design. Umbreon’s game identity is closely connected with careful, defensive play and status-focused strategies. In the Pokémon Trading Card Game, it has appeared in many expansions and is one of the most recognizable Eeveelutions among collectors. Its appeal combines a memorable visual identity, important place in Pokémon history, and a broad range of card releases across sets, languages, rarities, and eras.
