Trivia

• Umbreon is tied with Vaporeon and Leafeon for the tallest Eevee evolution.
• Although it is often mentioned that it is able to spray poison, Umbreon cannot actually learn Poison-type moves by leveling up.
• Umbreon was the first pure Dark-type.
• Umbreon is the first Dark Pokémon in National Dex order.

Origin

Name origin

Umbreon's name is derived from umbra, Latin for shadow and ghost. Eon was Eevee's prototype name, the Pokémon in which Umbreon evolves from.

Its Japanese name may simply refer to the color of its coat. Its French name, Noctali, is derived from nocturne, which refers to being active at night.
