#298.5 - Azurill live near water, and although they are not born as strong swimmers, they gradually get accustomed to the water by playing in the shallows at the water’s edge. Their oil-filled tail keeps them from drowning in even the strongest current, and is used in aiding their transportation; either through bouncing or by throwing it and being pulled by momentum. They thrive in group settings, and require a happy mindset and close friendships to be able to evolve. As they mature into Amarill and later Marill, they become competent swimmers.
#183.5 - Marill become strong swimmers as they age, and combined with their developing ability to inhale and store a large volume of air, are able to spend increasingly long periods of time under the water. Their hearing develops to be so acute that they can distinguish individual Pokemon inside a raging river. While their developing body pattern camouflages them from predators, Marill practice hunting and scavenging along riverbeds, stretching their flexible tail to its limit. Once they are full-grown Azumarill, these Pokemon can send virtually all day in water.
Named: Azurill - Amarill - Marill - Zumarill - Azumarill

Named: ? (Fire/Normal)
On rare occasion, an Eevee can be affected by more than one environmental factor, and reacts to grow into a new, rare evolution. If a wild Eevee lives among a group of Fire and Normal-type Pokémon with whom they feel a strong desire to protect, they may evolve into a Fire/Normal-type. Known for their courage and protective instincts, these Eeveelutions live in pride-like groups of Pokémon and act as fearless leaders and guardians. Their fiery tail burns brighter when they sense danger, and their intimidating roar serves as a fierce warning to any opponent who approaches their group. These Pokémon rest during the warmest hours of the day, basking in the sun to recharge their fire energy and hunting during dawn and dusk. The flame on their tail goes out while they sleep, and can be purposefully extinguished and relit while stalking prey. Trainers looking to battle with this Eeveelution must earn their respect through kindness and perseverance; however, once bonded, their unwavering loyalty make them a steadfast ally for life. Trainers looking to evolve their Eevee into this Eeveelution must raise their Eevee alongside only Normal and Fire-type Pokémon; other stimulus, even exposure to a Fire Stone, will likely result in another evolution path.

#283.5 - Surskit skate around on water by using a special oil secreted from the tips of their feet, which allows them to tread on the water’s surface without sinking in. To deter predators, they release a sweet-scented, thick fluid from the tip of their head that tastes disgusting to bird Pokemon; the same syrup is appealing to the microscopic organisms that they feed on, serving a dual purpose. As Surskit age, they begin to lose their water tolerance, and must carefully balance their development with the amount of moisture they interact with. Their legs begin to morph into wings, stopping the production of oil, and won’t be able to fly when wet. They quickly begin to sprout a pair of intimidating antennae, which they use to scare of predators once they can no longer produce the sickly sweet fluid.
Named: Surskit - Scarridae - Masquerain

#529.5 - Drilbur live in a complex system of subterranean dens and tunnels. By straightening their body, putting both of their sharp claws together, and whirling around at high speed, these Pokemon can dig through the ground at a speed of 30 mph. Maturing Drilbur develop sharper, thicker claws with external blades, which help them dig faster, deeper, and through harder metals and substrate. As Drilbur grow up, they leave the safety of their parents’ tunnel system to create their own elaborate underground network; often the offspring don’t go far, and their tunnels will eventually merge with their surrounding family’s.
Named: Drilbur - Drimmole - Excadrill

Yooooooo.
Question.. Do you plan to make Steel type Dual Eeveelutions? You recently made your first normal one (Normal/Fire I believe), and it looks great! I'd imagine steel could work well with some other types.
For sure! I have a few designs/inspirations already loosely planned for some Steel-types. It's not one of my favorite types for the Eeveelutions (less natural) but I'll be getting to them at some point :)

#909.5 - Fuecoco are laid-back Pokemon that do things at their own pace. They are extrememely food-motivated and love to eat. External heat is absorbed by the square scales on Fuecoco’s stomach and back, then converted into fire energy. The sheer amount of fire and caloric energy cannot be contained inside their bodies, and leaks out onto the top of their head. As they grow and produce more energy, the flames atop their head grows as well, forming into a nest-like shape. As Fuecoco age into Caimiente, and later Crocalor, their fire energy and overflowing vitality mixes together, forming into an egg-shaped fireball. Though they use the fireball as a part of their fire attacks in battle, they can be oddly doting over it.
#0910.5 - Crocalor possess an internal flame sac that has a valve connecting it to their vocal cords. As a result, they release fire with every guttural cry. Though they seem to enjoy “singing,” their voice could hardly be described as beautiful. They cannot help but release their voice as they breathe fire attacks, which becomes more destructive as they ramp up their firepower, causing opponents to take extra damage. Fire energy continues to build atop their heads until their fireball “egg” hatches, producing a fiery fledgling with its own unique soul. The presence of this companion grants a Muertodile grace, shaping its voice into a gentle but powerful force that soothes the hearts of all who hear it. The soul in the fireball is able to change its form via the power of an adult Skeledirge’s singing voice; the two rely on each other and possess a special bond.
Named: Fuecoco - Caimiente - Crocalor - Muertodile - Skeledirge

#551.5 - Sandile live exclusively in desert environments, where they spend a majority of their time buried underneath the sand's surface. This tactic not only allows them to surprise their prey, but the hot sand also helps to maintain their internal body temperature. As Sandile age and their longer limbs allow them to be faster on land, they spend more time above ground, where they actively seek out prey and form small communities.
#552.5 - The special membrane covering Krokorok's eyes grants them special heat-sensing vision that allows this Pokemon to track down prey under any condition; even during sandstorms or at night. Older Krokorok often have difficulty working in a group to hunt, tending to pursue and attack anything that crosses their path on their own. By the time a Krokorok has finished evolving into Krookodile, the combination of its incredible eyesight, violent temperament, and immense jaw strength renders this Pokemon a powerful threat. 
Named:  Sandile - Quarrok - Krokorok - Caiminal - Krookodile

hello!! I really love your work!! I was curious if you had any plans to make a stellar type eeveelution!! stellar type is weird in that its sorta a type, sorta not a type, but I think it would be a neat creative exercise and feel you could come up with a cool design for an eeveelution based on it!! thanks in advance!!
Hey there! Thanks for the message. Funny you ask; I'm not really looking to make new types of Eevees in general (minus the Halloween Eeveelutions), but one I've thought of doing is a Cosmic-type Eeveelution. Stellar-type sounds nice too, and I think they'd fill the same niche. I have a psuedo-design for a Cosmic Eeveelution that I plan to get to... some time. Good to know there's a desire to see one, I'll try to make it a reality sometime!
Also, you might be interested in Celesteon, (Cosmic-type) and Denseon (Gravity-type), two Eeveelutions I was commissioned to draw, which were designed by my friend @stormcloudquill.

#926.5 - Fidough have been considered companions for humanity for a long time, and can often be found in towns and settlements living among them. The yeast in their breath induces fermentation, making these Pokemon very useful in cooking. Fidough possess a moist, smooth skin that has elastic qualities and is both firm and soft at the same time. When these Pokemon become excited, they intimidate their opponents by puffing up their bodies to appear bigger. As Fidough age into Doughmutt, their doughy hide darkens and begins to emanate a pleasing, appetizing aroma, which helps wheat to grow. Due to this, Dachsbun—fully evolved Doughmutt—are historically treasured by farming villiages. The surface of their skin hardens when exposed to intense heat, providing them with a stronger defense.
Named: Fidough - Doughmutt - Dachsbun

#090.5 - Shellder are aquatic Pokemon that live along the ocean floor. By opening and closing their shells in quick succession, they are able to swim backwards with surprising speed. At night they use their broad tongue to burrow a hole in the sandy floor, where they sleep with their sensitive tongue sticking out; sand that gets caught inside their shell will eventually become a pearl. As Shellder age, their outer shell builds up layers and thickens, becoming even sturdier and more impenetrable. After a certain amount of growth, Shellder will rotate their soft inner bodies within their shells, taking on a more offensive alignment that enables them to be more aggressive and proactive. A wild Shellder’s growth is dependent on the salinity of their environment; Trainers who wish to evolve their Shellder must use a Water Stone to assist in their development.
Named: Shellder - Bivunker - Cloyster

#831.5 - Wooloo live in the countryside as a herd and mimic the actions of their Trainer, shepherd, or herd leader. They are non-confrontational and dislike conflict, and will simply roll away if they need to escape from enemies. As they age, Wooloo become more capable fighters, but still prefer to avoid battling. Though they grow an impressive set of horns, these ornaments are meant only to impress the opposite gender and never see use in battle. The springy white fur that covers their bodies grows throughout their lives, and can be used to produce high-quality fabrics and carpets; a specialty product of the Galar region. 
Named: Wooloo - Woolam - Dubwool

#495.5 - Snivy seek out sunlight, where they photosynthesize through their tail leaves. The energy absorbed from the sun makes their movements swifter and helps them grow. A maturing Snivy will begin to grow back spine leaves, further aiding in their photosynthesis. They look up to Serperior and are constantly looking to them for better ways to keep their leaves free of dirt.
#496.5 - As they age, Servine’s small legs go unused, and are held against their side to allow for faster slithering movement. Capable of adeptly hiding in thick foliage and shadows to avoid attacks, Servine will avoid going all-out if possible. An older Servine is able to intimidate opponents with just a glare, while the younger Pokemon have been observed practicing this menacing look in reflective pools of water.
Named: Snivy - Snapling - Servine - Serpaline - Serperior ⓘ

#177.5 - While Natu are young, their wings aren’t fully grown, so they resort to hopping around from place to place. They mostly forage for food on the ground, but on rare occasions, will hop onto tree branches and cactus plants to peck at new sprouts. As Natu age, their stronger wings allow them to fly, so they are no longer seen hopping about with the same frantic energy. In fact, the older the Natu, the stiller they become. This behavior is believed to be linked to their growing psychic power, and the visions they see of the past and future. Though a fully grown Xatu can clearly see the future, they have no power or desire to change it.
Named: Natu - Qatu - Xatu

#624.5 -  Pawniard live and fight together in a group that commanded by a singular Bisharp. They fight brutally, ignoring any injuries and utilizing their many sharp blades, which they sharpen on stones by the river. They grow slowly, amassing cooperative skills and frequently practicing sparring with other Pawniard. The group will be commanded by the toughest Bisharp, and many Pawniard train and wait their turn to challenge to the leader for control. If they choose to pick a fight and lose the battle, they will be driven from the group and must make it on their own.
#625.5 -  Bisharp are disciplined, stubborn Pokemon that command a group of Pawniard. They are merciless battlers and will cut their opponents to pieces using the sharp blades on their bodies, doing anything to win a fight. A truly impressive Bisharp will possess a Leader’s Crest, an old blade that shows of this Pokemon’s many victories. As a Bisharp becomes a more impressive fighter and commander, their fellow Bisharp may choose to join their army, fighting under the command of a truly impressive leader. Only these Bisharp, those that stand above all others, will evolve into Kingambit. These Pokemon command a massive army in battle, winning through brute strength over complex strategies.
Names: Pawniard - Rookade - Bisharp - Knightanto - Kingambit

#140.5 - Kabuto are prehistoric Pokémon, thought to have inhabited beaches up to 300 million years ago. The Kabuto population we know today is largely the result of specimens resurrected from fossils found within ancient seabeds; however, in extremely rare cases, living examples have been discovered, unchanged after all this time. Kabuto hide on the sea floor, where they utilize two pairs of eyes to keep a careful watch on their surroundings. A Kabuto age into Kabuta, their four small legs develop enough to allow them to surface and pursue prey on land, where they depend mostly on their sharp claws for attacking and their hard shell for defense. At this stage, Kabuta will begin to use only their upper-most eyes; eventually, the unused eyes on their underside will close and be re-absorbed. Full-grown Kabutops are fast swimmers and ferocious hunters, known to rip their prey apart with their scythes and suck up the fluids.
Named: Kabuto - Kabuta - Kabutops
