Pokemon Enthusiast Unveils Bug/Ground-Type Eeveelution Concept

A creative Pokemon fan recently stirred up a mix of excitement and debate by introducing a unique twist on Eevee’s evolution line. This newly imagined Eeveelution, named Squirmeon, is a dual Bug/Ground-type, a concept that is sparking lots of discussion within the community. Eevee’s lack of dual-type evolutions makes this fan-created version particularly intriguing, and its appearance alone has fans divided.

Pokefans often get inventive with their ideas, especially with how many official variations the games have given us over the years, from Gigantamax forms to regional variations and beyond. Among all these possibilities, Eevee has always held a special place, thanks to its numerous evolutionary paths. Fans just love expanding on this, and Squirmeon is just the latest imaginative addition to the lineup.

Reddit user In-ProgressPokemon shared their artwork featuring Squirmeon. This Eeveelution sports a bug-like appearance; its brown body, sparkling blue eyes, and mud-covered exterior exude a rather earthy vibe. Interestingly, its design features worm-like segments wrapped around its legs and neck, and a grub-like tail, which has left some fans a bit uneasy while others find it utterly charming.

The artist didn’t just stop at the design. They also explained the story behind Squirmeon’s features. According to their lore, this Eeveelution emerges when an Eevee spends its time burrowing underground, searching for bugs. Unsurprisingly, Squirmeon is adept at digging and stays mostly underground. This environment is why it appears muddy, and it also explains its limited vision, represented by its blue eyes. Additionally, the worm-like parts serve as nutrient reserves that Squirmeon can tap into when needed.

Despite mixed reactions to Squirmeon, the creator, In-ProgressPokemon, is known for a plethora of innovative Eevee designs that have garnered positive attention in the Pokemon community. With their knack for creating intriguing dual-type Eeveelutions, it’s no surprise that fans are keen on seeing one of their designs become official. While Squirmeon might not top the list of fan favorites, it definitely adds an interesting flavor to the myriad of fan-made Pokemon evolutions out there.
