Pokemon Go: Ranking Every Shiny Eevee Evolution

Becoming a master collector in Pokemon Go involves completing various challenges, and one of the most exciting tasks is gathering all the shiny Eevee evolutions. With eight different Eeveelutions plus Eevee itself, acquiring their shiny variants can be a thrilling yet time-consuming endeavor.

In this ranking, we’ll assess each shiny Eevee evolution based on its appearance, max CP, stats, and battle potential. While shiny hunting these remarkable Eeveelutions in the real world, Pokemon Go offers a fantastic platform for the pursuit.

9. Shiny Eevee

Shiny Eevee

Shiny Eevee may not technically be an Eeveelution, but it’s the starting point for all the evolutions. Its shiny variant tones down Eevee’s vibrant brown for a more subtle pale gray. While it might look nice, it’s not particularly useful in battles due to its Normal typing and a max CP of 1,210 (1,071 at level 40). To make the most of shiny Eevees, ensure their stats are maxed out.

ATK: 104
DEF: 114
STA: 146

8. Shiny Leafeon

Shiny Leafeon

Leafeon, a Grass-type evolution of Eevee, boasts a max CP of 3,328 (level 40: 2,944). While its max CP falls short of Flareon’s, Leafeon holds its own with stats of 216/219/163 for Attack, Defense, and Stamina. However, Grass-types aren’t top choices in the PvE meta, making shiny Leafeon somewhat underwhelming. Its shiny appearance is subtle, with slightly darker and more vibrant colors.

ATK: 216
DEF: 219
STA: 163

7. Shiny Flareon

Shiny Flareon

Flareon, a Fire-type Eeveelution, has a max CP of 3,424 (level 40: 3,029) and boasts stats of 246/179/163 for Attack, Defense, and Stamina. While decent for a Fire-type, Flareon doesn’t outshine other Fire-type options. Shiny Flareon’s appearance is a muted version of the original, with a more gold-tan coat.

ATK: 246
DEF: 179
STA: 163

6. Shiny Jolteon

Shiny Jolteon

Jolteon, the Electric-type Eeveelution, sports max CP of 3,265 (level 40: 2,888) and 232/182/163 for Attack, Defense, and Stamina. It’s a glass cannon with a shiny appearance that swaps bright yellow-gold for lime green. While not the most visually appealing, shiny Jolteon is still a viable choice, particularly in PvP’s Ultra League.

ATK: 232
DEF: 182
STA: 163

5. Shiny Vaporeon

Shiny Vaporeon

Vaporeon, one of the original Eeveelutions, possesses a max CP of 3,521 (level 40: 3,114). Its stats include 205/161/277 for Attack, Defense, and Stamina. Although outclassed in raids, Vaporeon remains a budget option. Shiny Vaporeon sports a magenta coloring that is visually striking and a significant change from the original.

ATK: 205
DEF: 161
STA: 277

4. Shiny Glaceon

Shiny Glaceon

Glaceon, the Ice-type Eeveelution, shines with a max CP of 3,535 (level 40: 3,126) and stats of 238/205/163 in Attack, Defense, and Stamina. While it may be outperformed by other Ice-types, Glaceon is a valuable addition to PvE teams. Its shiny variant is subtle, with a slightly bluer and lighter coat, giving it an icier look.

ATK: 238
DEF: 205
STA: 163

3. Shiny Sylveon

Shiny Sylveon

Sylveon’s battle potential rivals Vaporeon and Jolteon, but its shiny form is exceptional. With shades of blue replacing pink, shiny Sylveon complements its standard appearance perfectly. It offers a max CP of 3,470 (3,069 at level 40) and stats of 203/205/216 for Attack, Defense, and Stamina. Sylveon excels as a Fairy-type attacker, particularly when considering resource constraints.

ATK: 203
DEF: 205
STA: 216

2. Shiny Espeon

Shiny Espeon

Espeon, an elegant Psychic-type Eeveelution, undergoes a significant transformation in its shiny form, with a bright green coat. With a max CP of 3,583 (3,170 at level 40) and impressive stats of 261/175/163 for Attack, Defense, and Stamina, shiny Espeon shines in PvE battles, excelling against Fighting- and Poison-type opponents. While it falls short in PvP, shiny Espeon remains a top Eeveelution.

ATK: 261
DEF: 175
STA: 163

1. Shiny Umbreon

Shiny Umbreon

Umbreon’s sleek design is further enhanced by its shiny form, which retains the night-sky aesthetic but introduces romantic and subdued black and blue tones. With a max CP of 2,416 (level 40: 2,137) and impressive stats of 126/240/216 for Attack, Defense, and Stamina, shiny Umbreon excels in both the Great and Ultra leagues, making it the top choice among shiny Eeveelutions for battles.
