Where to find it in X and Y
Eevee can evolve into eight Pokémon in X and Y. Leafeon and Glaceon need the special rocks on Route 20 and in Frost Cavern; Sylveon needs two Pokémon-Amie affection hearts and a Fairy-type move.
Rows marked “X only” or “Y only” are version-specific. Friend Safari rows need the postgame Kiloude City safari and a friend whose safari contains this Pokémon.
