Trivia

  • Individual prints feature moonlight, sunlight, snow-covered grass, or playthings, which corresponded to the Eeveelution(s) available alongside it in each Japanese promotional release. The illustrations also form part of a narrative with these corresponding cards. In the SWSH127 print's illustration, an Eevee paws at a reflection of the moon on a waterfront. This scene continues on the Umbreon card. In the SWSH175 print's illustration, an Eevee wakes on an arbor as sunlight cascades through. This scene continues on the Espeon card. In the SWSH190 print's illustration, an Eevee observes a solitary budding flower in a snow-covered wood. This scene continues on the Glaceon card. In the SWSH212 print's illustration, an Eevee plays with a ball in a playroom. This scene continues on the Sylveon card.
  • Based on the release schedules of previous Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Packs, it is likely the Japanese print numbered 181/S-P would have been available alongside the dual Silver Lance and Jet-Black Spirit expansion on April 23, 2021. However, due to the release proximity of the delayed Promo Card Pack 5 and subsequent states of emergency in some Japanese prefectures, this print did not become available until July. This delay led to the first official release of this print appearing as a Traditional Chinese-language S-P Promotional card in May 2021. Similarly, it is likely the Japanese print numbered 220/S-P would have been available alongside the dual Skyscraping Perfection and Blue Sky Stream expansion on July 9, 2021. The delayed September release of this print also led to the first instance appearing as a Traditional Chinese-language card in early August 2021. The November release of the Japanese print numbered 239/S-P, which was likely intended to release alongside the Fusion Arts expansion on September 24, 2021, led to its first instance appearing as a Traditional Chinese-language card in early October 2021.

Origin

Bite is a move in the Pokémon games that Eevee can learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Shield. The SWSH212 print's illustration features a Poké Toy.
