>Kalos Native
NOOOOOOOOOO I CAN'T USE UMBREON CAUSE HE HAS FOUL PLAY & HEAL BELL WHICH IS NOT KALOS NATIVE.
^Really sad about that cause Heal Bell is very nice and plus it would stop an Umbreon vs. Umbreon Toxic Stall war X__x

I suppose I'll have to use another Umbreon. Thinking of going with Wish/Protect/Toxic/Taunt (in case of another Umbreon) or putting Snarl (in place of Taunt) to lower SpA of the other Eeveelutions.

(If I go with Taunt though, my Umbreon is completely walled by Magic Bounce Espeon. Whereas if I go with Snarl, other Umbreon can be a problem... Oh god.)

Suggestions, anyone? .__.
(I'm actually debating about Substitute now though.)
 
>no Glaceon

:dk2:

I've had all of the Eeveelutions (neutral Nature though) for ages, so I'm prepared for this but I'll probably redo them for better stats sometime.

I'd go with Snarl, honestly. While Taunt stops Umbreon in their tracks, Snarl has more use overall and you could handle an opponent's Umbreon without Taunt if you were lucky, anyway.

Because Diancie will be given to Japanese players starting from 6th July, but other people can't get it, so I guess it's to make it fair.
