===Physiology===
[[File:Galea Vaporeon Acid Armor.png|left|thumb|250px|A Vaporeon melting into water molecules]]
Vaporeon is a composite creature sharing physical traits of fish, dolphins, cats, dogs, and possibly other animals. It is a {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a quadruped body|quadruped}} with three small toes on each foot. Vaporeon's body is light blue and it has a white ruff around its neck just behind its head. Vaporeon has cream-colored ears made of webbing and has a fin on its head resembling its ears. Vaporeon has a pointed pattern of dark blue on its head that encompasses the backs of its ears and head-fin. It also has blue ridges that run down the length of its spine and on to its tail-fin, and the paw pads on its hind feet are dark blue like the ridges. Vaporeon's finned tail is said to look similar to that of a mermaid's. Vaporeon's molecular structure is close to water, so its body glitters when sunlight hits at certain angles.  
Vaporeon is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that shares physical traits with both aquatic and land animals. Vaporeon's body is light blue with a dark blue marking around its head and a spiky ridge down its spine. It has black eyes and a tiny black nose. There is a white fin encircling its neck and three fins with cream-colored webbing on its head. Two of these fins are on either side of its head, similar to ears; and one is directly on top of its head, resembling a {{wp|dorsal fin}}. Vaporeon is a quadruped with three small toes on each foot and dark blue paw pads on the hind feet. Its split tail fin has been mistaken for a mermaid's in the past and is believed to be the origin of mermaid folklore. It can detect moisture with its fins, which vibrate when sensing incoming rain.


====Gender differences====
Vaporeon is mostly found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban settings}} under the ownership of a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. It is rarely seen in the wild, but it prefers clean freshwater lakes and shores. It has developed gills to become better suited to an aquatic lifestyle, and its cell composition's similarity to water allows it to melt into the water. This ability enables Vaporeon to remain camouflaged while swimming, hiding itself from enemies and allowing it to ambush its prey: fish Pokémon.
None.

===Special abilities===
===Evolution===
Vaporeon are highly adapted to aquatic life. Unlike its pre-evolution, it has the ability to breathe underwater. As stated previously, they have a unique molecular structure. They have the ability to "{{m|Acid Armor|melt}}" into a body of water and disappear completely from view. They can also manipulate water molecules, giving them the ability to learn {{type|Water}} attacks their previous evolution could not.
Vaporeon evolves from {{p|Eevee}}.
Vaporeon also have the ability to walk on water. Vaporeon can also glide in the air for moments because of its fins.


Like most Water types, Vaporeon can also learn {{type|Ice}} moves, like {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Blizzard}}.
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
 
<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
Because it is a fully evolved Pokémon, Vaporeon can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.
{{Evobox-2
 
|type1=Water
===Behavior===
|pictype=art
Vaporeon are very difficult to observe in the wild, as they are quite rare. When they are in the water, they are virtually impossible to see. While they are much easier to see while they are resting onshore, they possess the {{m|Acid Armor|ability}} to rearrange themselves on a molecular level, causing themselves to "melt" into the water. It is likely that many mermaid stories were spawned by Vaporeon sightings, as their tails resemble those of mermaids. When Vaporeon's fins begin to vibrate, it is said to be a sign that rain will come within a few hours.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Vaporeon is the largest [[Eeveelution]]:  It is the heaviest of its evolutionary family, and is tied with both {{p|Umbreon}} and {{p|Leafeon}} for tallest.
* Vaporeon is the only {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that appears in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by Pal Park location|Field|field section}} of [[Pal Park]].
* Vaporeon has the highest {{stat|HP}} base stat of the Eeveelutions. Because of this, Vaporeon has the highest max base stat of all the Eeveelutions. (While the others have 394, Vaporeon has 464.)
* In {{game|Yellow}}, Vaporeon is programmed to learn both {{m|Haze}} and {{m|Mist}} at level 42; however, a bug prevents a Pokémon from learning more than one move at the same level when leveled up outside of [[Pokémon Day Care]], so Vaporeon can only learn Mist if it reaches level 42 in Pokémon Day Care.
* Vaporeon is the only {{type|Water}} that appears in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by Pal Park location|Field|field section}} of [[Pal Park]].
* In {{g|Colosseum}}, Vaporeon possesses a snow-like visual effect surrounding its body in battle. No other Pokémon in the series has this effect. The reason for this visual effect is unknown.
* In [[Generation I]], Vaporeon had a notably different design with the backs of its ears being all black, fins on each leg, and a fin running down the entire length of its back. All of these details were removed in [[Generation II]]. Notably, these details weren't present in its original R/G artwork.
* Vaporeon is the only Eeveelution that does not share any weakness with another Eeveelution.

===Concept and development===
Vaporeon was designed by [[Atsuko Nishida]].<ref name=EVs>(2018) ''EVs''.

In [[Generation I]], Vaporeon had a notably different design, with the backs of its ears being all black, fins on each leg, and a fin running down the entire length of its back, possibly remnants of its original dog-like design. All of these details were removed in [[Generation II]]. Notably, these details weren't present in its original {{game|Red and Green|s}} artwork.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Vaporeon's origins are uncertain, though it could be based on a cross between {{wp|cetacea}}ns, {{wp|Felidae|felines}}, and {{wp|canid}}s. Its feline and fish characteristics may mean that Vaporeon may be a visual pun on {{wp|catfish}}. The fins and dorsal lining may be based off different types of {{wp|tropical fish}}. Its ears resemble a mix between a fish's fin and a {{wp|fennec fox}}'s or caracal's ears. It also shares characteristics with {{wp|mermaid}}s. Vaporeon may also be inspired by the {{wp|Telchines}} of Greek mythology, or the {{wp|Merlion}}, a national symbol of {{wp|Singapore}}. Vaporeon's resemblance to both carnivorans and cetaceans could be based on {{wp|Evolution of cetaceans|primitive whales}}, such as {{wp|Kutchicetus}}.
According to designer Atsuko Nishida, Vaporeon and especially its tail were designed with the idea of {{wp|mermaid}}s in mind.<ref name=EVs/> It also resembles various aquatic creatures such as fish and {{wp|dolphin}}s. Its ears resemble a mix between a fish's fin and a {{wp|fennec fox}}'s ears.
 
Vaporeon may also be inspired by the {{wp|Telchines}} of {{wp|Greek mythology}}, or a pun on the {{wp|catfish}}. Due to the fringe around its neck resembling a {{wp|ruff (clothing)|ruff}} and a {{wp|lion}}'s mane, Vaporeon may also be a possible reference to the heraldic {{wp|sea-lion}}; or the similar-looking {{wp|Merlion}}, a national symbol of {{wp|Singapore}}. Its ability to become invisible and turn into water might be inspired by the {{wp|Asrai}}. Vaporeon's resemblance to both {{wp|carnivora}}ns and {{wp|cetacea}}ns could be based on {{wp|Evolution of cetaceans|primitive whales}}, such as ''{{wp|Kutchicetus}}''.

Vaporeon (Japanese: シャワーズ Showers) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Eevee when exposed to a Water Stone.

It is one of Eevee's final forms, the others being Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon, and Sylveon.

Biology

A Vaporeon melting into water molecules

Vaporeon is a Pokémon that shares physical traits with both aquatic and land animals. Vaporeon's body is light blue with a dark blue marking around its head and a spiky ridge down its spine. It has black eyes and a tiny black nose. There is a white fin encircling its neck and three fins with cream-colored webbing on its head. Two of these fins are on either side of its head, similar to ears; and one is directly on top of its head, resembling a dorsal fin. Vaporeon is a quadruped with three small toes on each foot and dark blue paw pads on the hind feet. Its split tail fin has been mistaken for a mermaid's in the past and is believed to be the origin of mermaid folklore. It can detect moisture with its fins, which vibrate when sensing incoming rain.

Vaporeon is mostly found in urban settings under the ownership of a Trainer. It is rarely seen in the wild, but it prefers clean freshwater lakes and shores. It has developed gills to become better suited to an aquatic lifestyle, and its cell composition's similarity to water allows it to melt into the water. This ability enables Vaporeon to remain camouflaged while swimming, hiding itself from enemies and allowing it to ambush its prey: fish Pokémon.

Evolution

Vaporeon evolves from Eevee.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Trivia

  • Vaporeon is the only Water-type Pokémon that appears in the field section of Pal Park.
  • In Pokémon Yellow, Vaporeon is programmed to learn both Haze and Mist at level 42; however, a bug prevents a Pokémon from learning more than one move at the same level when leveled up outside of Pokémon Day Care, so Vaporeon can only learn Mist if it reaches level 42 in Pokémon Day Care.
  • In Pokémon Colosseum, Vaporeon possesses a snow-like visual effect surrounding its body in battle. No other Pokémon in the series has this effect. The reason for this visual effect is unknown.
  • Vaporeon is the only Eeveelution that does not share any weakness with another Eeveelution.

Concept and development

Vaporeon was designed by Atsuko Nishida.[1][2] Nishida originally designed Vaporeon to resemble a dog with fins on its legs but Ken Sugimori redesigned Vaporeon to resemble a cat and removed the fins.[1]

In Generation I, Vaporeon had a notably different design, with the backs of its ears being all black, fins on each leg, and a fin running down the entire length of its back, possibly remnants of its original dog-like design. All of these details were removed in Generation II. Notably, these details weren't present in its original Pokémon Red and Green artwork.

Origin

According to designer Atsuko Nishida, Vaporeon and especially its tail were designed with the idea of mermaids in mind.[1] It also resembles various aquatic creatures such as fish and dolphins. Its ears resemble a mix between a fish's fin and a fennec fox's ears.

Vaporeon may also be inspired by the Telchines of Greek mythology, or a pun on the catfish. Due to the fringe around its neck resembling a ruff and a lion's mane, Vaporeon may also be a possible reference to the heraldic sea-lion; or the similar-looking Merlion, a national symbol of Singapore. Its ability to become invisible and turn into water might be inspired by the Asrai. Vaporeon's resemblance to both carnivorans and cetaceans could be based on primitive whales, such as Kutchicetus.

Name origin

Vaporeon may be a combination of vapor and eon (an immeasurably long period of time, possibly referring to how long evolution takes naturally). Eon is a suffix all Eevee evolutions share and was Eevee's English prototype name.

Showers is literally showers, referring to a bathroom shower or rain shower.
