Conclusion: No new Eevee evolutions. Even i love them, but 7 is enough. (My favourite is Vaporeon)

Actually, it isn't "too early" to reveal a Gen 6 Pokemon. All the Pokemon from the Unova region have been revealed, and if the games were to come out next fall, then it would be a pretty good time to start hyping up the new generation.

According to Bulbapedia, Munchlax was revealed in May 2004, and Pokemon D/P weren't released in Japan until September 2006...

They didn't do that for B2W2 or the Kyurem Formes. Masuda just tweeted that he would appear on Smash, but the other sources didn't say anything at all. Besides, there is still a week left.

No. The promotion page says that there are nine postcards, with the last one being a secret.

Sorry to be bursting bubbles, but the "secret" is a shot of them all together; this one, to be precise. These cards were distributed weeks ago; the very blog that the image with the question mark was taken from says they were distributed on the 10th November, too.

Sorry, I think the wait continues.

Remember, Zorua and Zoroark were unveiled in February 2010, and BW were released in Japan that September. The same thing happened with the new legendary formes in 2012.

If the Gen VI games come out in Japan next September, are they pushing a new Eeveelution just because of the anime schedule?

I didn't see the blog, but this begs the question why the official website treats the postcards as though they were unreleased. I guess that just about anything can be passed off as a secret these days.

Thanks! Case closed I suppose?

And besides, new Eeveelutions come in two's! I would personally like to see a Ghost type and a Poison type.

So there is no new eeveelutions eh? Since there is 9 cards, what is the last card thought? Can someone share the picture or link?

Utopean posted it in their post that you quoted.. 非売品！イーブイコレクション☆ポストカード☆シークレット - Yahoo!オークション

Note how they rotated the postcard to make it seem similar to the others, even though it should be laid horizontally.

So that seals the deal can someone close the thread.

I win!

That's the ultimate fan-bait Pokemon right there. If you searched for "Light-type Eevee Evolution" on Deviantart, you'd get so many page returns your browser would probably force close. That's not even a real Pokemon yet, but I bet you there's already a Sonic/MLP/Lion King/Yoshi version of it.

...and don't forget gijinka version!

Remember, before everything else, there is ALWAYS a gijinka or other form of anthropomorhpization. It's the official initiation of fan acceptance.

My experience exactly :V
Really wanted a new Eeveelution for Gen VI

And hey, I'd be open to a new type but only if it manages to even slightly balance the type chart out. I definitely don't think it should be a "light" type, though.

Oh, they are such trolls. Everything was set up for it to be a new eeveelution, and then it turns out to be them all together.

As with the Mewtwo hype (another pokémon with huge fan appeal) I believe we must start looking at the franchise as a whole, rather than expecting the build-ups and questionmarks in advertisements to serve as an arm of the current/upcoming games.
