Dwayne's Glaceon

**Dwayne's Glaceon** (Japanese: **ドゥエインのグレイシア** *Douein's Glacia*) is the second Pokémon that Dwayne caught during his Battle Frontier challenge, and his thirtieth overall.

## **New Era**

### **Frontier Challenge**

Dwayne obtained a Egg as a gift from Nicolette after Dwayne helped build her confidence to embark on her journey and follow her dreams to become a Pokémon Coordinator.

Sometime later, the Egg hatched into an Eevee while Dwayne was making a stop in Commerce City. Nurse Joy remarks that Eevee is healthy before handing it to Dwayne. He introduces himself to Eevee, who promptly snuggles against him, with Joy pointing out that Eevee was really affectionate. Joy then notices that Eevee's tail is flower-shaped, which confirms it to be a female. Eevee continues to snuggle against Dwayne, and quickly falls asleep on his arms, and Dwayne mentions that Eevee was like a baby, and Joy remarks that Eevee was indeed a newborn, causing Dwayne to chuckle sheepishly.

Following this, Dwayne decides to send Flygon to Professor Oak's Laboratory, thanking him for his effort during their Battle Frontier challenge, and transports his Poké Ball through a video call with Professor Oak, and asks Oak to make sure to let Flygon enjoy his time at his ranch. Oak promises to do and hangs up the call. Dwayne then gives Eevee a Poké Ball and welcomes her to his team. However, Eevee sniffs Dwayne's belt, and knocks off a Love Ball instead, and promptly taps the Ball's mechanism and allows herself to be caught, and Dwayne laughs at Eevee's choice, joking that she was already affectionate towards him to the point of wanting a Poké Ball that made her even more affectionate.

### **Intermission**

Approximately two months after his victory at the Battle Pyramid, Dwayne is enjoying a nice afternoon meal with Professor Oak, Roberta, and Eevee, who still seems quite emotionally attached towards Dwayne, wanting to stay with him at all times. Roberta mentions that Eevee was still unable to separate herself from him, and Professor Oak comments that Eevee's species are known for their extreme attachment and loyalty towards their Trainers, and with Eevee still being quite young, wasn't ready to be separated from him yet.

Meanwhile, as they keep talking, a helicopter lands not too far away from the laboratory, where Fabius and Harlynn step out. As they discuss their plans, they both agree that for the first time, their current assignment was personal instead of professional: Their goal was to eliminate Dwayne, whom they agreed was a major threat to their reputation and future plans. Soon, Dwayne hears the doorbell and goes to see who it is. It's a Magikarp salesman, who immediately tries to sell Dwayne the Magikarp he has. He tells Dwayne that the Magikarp lays golden eggs, making Dwayne very suspicious. Professor Oak comes over to see what is going on, and becomes angry when he hears that the salesman is selling Pokémon. Dwayne tells him that this is a Pokémon laboratory, and the salesman then makes a hasty exit. Professor Oak says that Pokémon should not be bought and sold. Dwayne says they should report him to Officer Jenny, and then the doorbell rings again. Dwayne, mistakenly believing that the Magikarp salesman has returned, says he will teach him a lesson, and harshly tells him to get lost, only to realize his mistake when he sees that it is Jade, who punches him on the top of his head for yelling at her, although she quickly and sheepishly says that she was proud that Dwayne had grown a backbone.

Elsewhere, Dwayne's Roserade is enjoying a walk through the ranch. She smiles upon seeing a Jumpluff and Skiploom getting along. Roserade then notices an odd-looking Golem and Nidoqueen, which are actually Fabius and Harlynn in disguise. Dwayne's Growlithe also notices them, and blocks their path, sniffing them. Harlynn kicks it away in frustration, but Growlithe retaliates with a Roar. Fabius, however, reflects it with a tool on hand, sending Growlithe backwards into the bushes. As Growlithe recovers, he runs off to tell Roserade. However, by the time the two get there, Fabius and Harlynn have already set off again. Harlynn accidentally steps on Misdreavus, who was taking a nap, and she reponds by using Shadow Ball. However, Fabius uses a fire extinguisher on her, and the two leave, just as Roserade and Growlithe catch up to Misdreavus.

Back at the lab, Roberta asks Dwayne about his future plans, and Dwayne admits not being sure on what to do next. At this moment, Roserade gets their attention by tapping on the window. Oak tells Roserade that they are busy and couldn't talk at the moment. Roserade then rushes over to Dwayne, and forcefully drags him with her Power Whip. Roserade's decision was correct, as Fabius and Harlynn have now reached the lab, though not before being noticed by Dwayne's Butterfree. As Fabius cuts a hole in the window, he comments that Dwayne would soon become a bad memory. Harlynn reaches through the hole to unlatch the window, and they enter the lab. Fabius and Harlynn soon sneak into the Poké Ball room, which has no security alarms surprisingly. Meanwhile, Butterfree guides Dwayne and the others over to the damaged window. He immediately rushes over to Professor Oak to tell him that someone has broken in. They search the lab until they reach the Poké Ball room, where they are shocked to see that all the Poké Balls are gone. Dwayne says that whoever did this must be professionals.

The Pokémon begin to spread the word. As all the Pokémon search, Fabius and Harlynn attempt to gain some distance with their costumes, mumbling that they'll wait for Dwayne to get to them instead of the other way around, with the Poké Balls inside a container covered by a a Muk cloak. However, a Nidoking spots them and tries to hug Harlynn. When they manage to lose that, Dwayne's Muk turns up and smothers the Poké Balls. Meanwhile, Butterfree locates the helicopter just as Muk has now covered both Harlynn and Fabius, who can't get up.

Roserade uses Power Whip to uncover the sheet covering the helicopter just as everyone hears a loud noise and see sonic waves being fired towards the sky, and Professor Oak says that it was Butterfree's Supersonic and assumes Butterfree found the thieves. As all the Pokémon rush over to the spot, Fabius and Harlynn attempt to hide. For a moment, they think they have made it, but then Roberta and Jade step forward, barring the way. Professor Oak and Dwayne come in behind them, and tell them that they are completely surrounded. Roberta tells them to give up now, or they would probably get hurt. Fabius and Harlynn then admit their plan failed and remove their costumes, and Dwayne recognizes the two, and proceeds to explain to the others about his previous encounters with the two. Professor Oak admonishes them for stealing the Pokémon, but Fabius exclaims their goal wasn't to steal the Pokémon, and they simply stumbled upon the Poké Ball room and simply took it as a bonus, and Roberta then asks what their real goal was.

Just as Fabius attempts to explain, Harlynn uncharacteristically snaps and says they were there to eliminate Dwayne as he'd interfered in their plans far too many times, and she begins to sadistically remark on all the way manners she was looking foward to torture him before finally putting him out of his misery, and her outburts even causes Fabius to become stunned. Roberta then shakes with anger, as she then says they signed their own death warrant for threatning to kill her beloved child, and notes that as his mother, merely hearing about her child's hypothetical murder at the hands of another caused her to feel pure rage, and vows to make them pay for coming after Dwayne, but nonetheless gives them one final chance to surrender. Fabius seems to consider, but Harlynn screeches that she wouldn't stop until Dwayne was dead and calls out her Chandelure and when she angrily demands Fabius to fight too, Fabius sends out his Slowking. Dwayne decides to battle, but Roberta and Jade tell him to let them battle instead. Harlynn lets out a maniacal laugh, and says she wouldn't play this time around, and Dwayne's Eevee steps forward to battle, and Jade recognizes that Eevee also wanted to battle to protect her Trainer, and Eevee nods in agreement. Roberta sends out her Nidoqueen while Jade battles with Eevee.

Chandelure starts off with Inferno, which Nidoqueen dodges. Slowking then uses Tackle, but Eevee uses Sand-Attack to blind Slowking, and Nidoqueen steps up to attack with Mega Punch, and Eevee uses Helping Hand to boost Nidoqueen's attack power, sending Slowking flying. Next, Nidoqueen attacks Chandelure with Surf, which engulfs both Chandelure and Slowking. While they are busy, Harlynn summons her Flaaffy to use Thunder Shock on Eevee, but Nidoqueen steps in front of the attack to take the blow due to her Ground-type immunity against Electric-type attacks. Fabius orders Slowking to use Power Gem on Nidoqueen, but Jade orders Eevee to use Copycat on Flaaffy to use a Thunder Shock of her own onto Slowking, causing super-effective damage. Harlynn then grows angrier and commands Chandelure to use Smog all over the area to suffocate them, and Fabius attempts to talk her out of it, as they could get affected, but Harlynn doesn't listen, and she says that they would all perish by her own hands. Chandelure does so, and everyone starts coughing, but Dwayne's Butterfree quickly uses Gust to blow the Smog away. As everyone still continues to cough as a result of Smog, Latias arrives and seeing the scene, quickly uses Safeguard around the area, and everyone heals from the coughing as a result.

Roberta then says that they would pay for doing this, and Harlynn simply laughs and orders Chandelure and Flaaffy to use Shadow Ball and Thunder, respectively. Roberta quickly tells Nidoqueen to use Surf, which engulfs both attacks, but they are colliding, and Jade has Eevee use Copycat to create a second Surf attack, which combines itself with Nidoqueen's Surf to expand the wave, and sends Chandelure and Flaaffy flying, who are knocked out. Harlynn then begins shaking in anger and she sends out her Lunatone and Solrock and tells them to use Explosion and Self-Destruct, respectively. Everyone except Harlynn panics, as they know the combined might of Explosion and Self-Destruct would possibly destroy a large part of the forest, and many Pokémon would get caught in the blast. Fabius then pleads for Harlynn to stop, but she doesn't respond as she's too focused on her enemies to notice her husband would also get caught in the explosion.

Roberta quickly comes up with a plan, and orders Nidoqueen to use Dig underneath Solrock and Lunatone and create deep crater, which she quickly does so. Roberta then tells Jade to help her put Lunatone and Solrock deep into the hole, and Jade tells Eevee to Baby-Doll Eyes, which weakens both Lunatone's and Solrock's attack power and leaves them flustered enough for Nidoqueen to knock them down the crater with Mega Punch. Then, Roberta sends out her Clefable and commands her to use Protect onto the hole, and Roberta asks for further assistance. Eevee then joins them and uses Copycat to mimic Protect, and even Fabius joins in with his Machop also using Protect, and all three Pokémon use Protect just as Solrock and Lunatone's attack are launched, and the explosion is barely contained.

As Harlynn curses her enemies for their intrusion yet again, Fabius steps in front of her, saying that she's gone too far, and she nearly got herself killed. Harlynn remains with a crazed look in her eyes, and says that she would put an end to all of her enemies, until Fabius also mentions that she nearly got him killed, and this was enough to snap Harlynn out of her crazed state, and once she regains her common sense, she faints onto Fabius's arms, and Fabius informs them that they surrender as he hugs his wife and apologizes to her for not keeping her in line. Dwayne then walks over to them and tells him that he wasn't sorry for them as they were out to kill him but also urges them to retire from crime, and Fabius takes a moment and agrees with Dwayne, and while not excusing their actions, Fabius explains that they only turned to crime because their lives weren't necessarily a happy one before they met each other, and Dwayne simply says that they already made plenty enough of money and should run off and live the rest of their lives in peace. Fabius is shocked and asks what Dwayne meant, and Dwayne simply stares down at him, and Fabius silently nods before picking up his wife and getting into their helicopter and flying away, but not before Fabius thanks Dwayne and promises that they would not only retire from crime, but also says that they would never meet each other again.

Roberta then protests to Dwayne about letting them go and questions his decision and asks if he felt bad for criminals who not only stole Pokémon, but also tried to kill him, while also pointing out that Dwayne might not have been the first time they decided to take someone out, but Dwayne says that judging from their files, Fabius and Harlynn never had a reason to eliminate someone since they never failed a mission before meeting him, and while he didn't necessarily felt bad for them, Dwayne did believe they could start over if they wanted to, and admits that if they refused to retire, he would've let them rot in prison. Despite Roberta still being uncertain of Dwayne's actions, she expresses her pride in her son, saying that he's become a very mature man since embarking on his journey.

### **Sinnoh**

When Dwayne departed to the Sinnoh region, Eevee went after him, unwilling to become separated from him, and Dwayne allowed Eevee to join him on his travels. While walking through Route 201, Dwayne came across a wild Zubat that he wanted to capture, and used Eevee to battle him. Zubat immediately goes into the offensive with Bite, but Eevee manages to dodge the attack, and she retaliates with Tackle, crashing onto Zubat, who quickly recovers. Zubat then attacks with Supersonic, which Eevee also manages to evade. Dwayne then calls for a Copycat, and Eevee fires off a Supersonic of her own, which hits Zubat and leaves it confused. As Zubat becomes dazed by its confusion, Eevee lands another direct hit with Tackle, sending Zubat crashing into a nearby tree, and Dwayne throws a Poké Ball, and Dwayne successfully catches Zubat.

During Dwayne's first battle against Lazuli, Eevee was selected as his second Pokémon to battle against Lazuli's Chimchar. Eevee launches a Swift attack, but Chimchar counters with Ember and the two attacks explode on contact. Chimchar then uses Ember again, and Eevee returns the attack via Copycat. Eevee prepares to use Tackle, but Chimchar uses Flame Wheel, stopping the attack. Eevee then uses Sand-Attack, but an Ember blocks the incoming sand, and Chimchar subsequently scores a direct hit with Scratch. Dwayne orders another Tackle, as Lazuli orders Chimchar to use Fury Swipes, but Eevee jumps into the air at the last second, dodging the Fury Swipes. Eevee smashes down into Chimchar with Tackle, knocking the Chimp Pokémon out.

When Dwayne challenged the Oreburgh Gym, Eevee was chosen as his first Pokémon to battle against Roark's Cranidos. The referee begins the match, and Dwayne commands Eevee to use Tackle. Eevee jumps into the air to launch the attack. Roark notes the smart move by Dwayne, getting Eevee into the air should give him an advantage with Cranidos stuck on the ground. Nonetheless, Roark tells Cranidos to use Headbutt and Cranidos surprises everyone by jumping into the air and hitting Eevee in the stomach with Headbutt. After Eevee hits the ground, Roark has Cranidos use Flamethrower. Dwayne is able to keep Eevee out of harm's way by having her dodge, and Eevee follows up with Swift, sending Cranidos reeling back. Dwayne now has Eevee use Copycat, throwing Cranidos's Flamethrower back it, so Roark has Cranidos counter with Zen Headbutt. Both attacks collide, causing a massive explosion. However, Eevee comes out of it the worst, as she flies into Dwayne's arms, unable to battle.

The next day, Dwayne trains with his Pokémon and encourages them to grow stronger. Eevee, Buneary, and Turtwig launch Swift, Dizzy Punch, and Razor Leaf attacks respectively at coal ore pillars, shattering them with ease. In the outskirts of Oreburgh City, a Seedot falls down a branch and kicks a Nuzleaf off. It continues sleeping, landing on a Vileplume, running off into the forest. The next morning, the Vileplume continues running, emitting pollen and causing the Nuzleaf to sneeze, making the Vileplume run faster and dislodging Nuzleaf. It wakes up and realizes it is not at the tree. It tries to find its way back, running and falling off a cliff.

Meanwhile, Dwayne and his Pokémon continue their training. They notice a gust of wind nearby and rush to check it. A Nurse Joy tries to approach the same Nuzleaf, but it attacks with Razor Leaf. Nuzleaf attacks Dwayne, but he avoids the attack. Dwayne mentions that Nuzleaf are generally afraid of humans, but nonetheless steps forward and hides his hands, approaching and getting down eye level, keeping Nuzleaf calm. Dwayne pulls a leaf off a tree and blows on it like a whistle, calming Nuzleaf more. Dwayne hands it an Oran Berry, but it refuses. Dwayne calls for Eevee and has her eat some of the Oran before offering it to Nuzleaf. Nuzleaf accepts it as Dwayne presents a whole plate full of Berries. Nurse Joy notices how Dwayne was able to calm the Pokémon as he uses a Super Potion on Nuzleaf's wound, healing it. Nurse Joy mentions that the thousand year old tree nearby houses the Seedot evolutionary family, the only area to spot the Seedot family in the vicinity. Dwayne and Joy decide to take the Nuzleaf to the tree.

As the two walk, Eevee and Nuzleaf bond. Three poachers appear, disguised as Shiftry and pretend to be lost and ask Dwayne and Joy to lead them to the tree, but Dwayne sees right through their disguise by commenting on their odd appearance and height, and, with his eyes half-open, sighs and tells them to introduce themselves. The poachers remove their disguises and use a bazooka net to nab both Nuzleaf and Eevee. Before they get away, Dwayne grabs the net as they fly away.

The poachers put the Pokémon in a cage and bind Dwayne to a tree. Dwayne tries to find a way to get free as the poachers get hungry, noting that the food they have is merely garnish, not a complete meal. Dwayne gets an idea and says that he can turn the food into a full meal. They release him and Dwayne makes a full course meal, with the poachers diving in. They are so occupied by the food that Dwayne manages to slip away, taking the whole cage and darting away. When they get far enough, Dwayne has Eevee try to open the cage. She manages to bend a bar, but not enough, and Eevee becomes sad. Dwayne reassures his Pokémon and she tries again, and charges up and speeds foward with full-force, breaking the cage and freeing herself and Nuzleaf, with Dwayne noting that instead of using Tackle, Eevee just learned Double-Edge.

Meanwhile, Nurse Joy continues to search for Dwayne. As she continues searching, Dwayne continues on, Nuzleaf riding on top of Eevee. They see the tree and continue on while the poachers also search for Dwayne after he slipped away. Dwayne runs into a fast-moving river and decides to cross. Knowing Eevee hates getting her fur wet, he recalls her, but Nuzleaf crashes to the ground and starts crying. Dwayne brings Eevee back out and tells her that Nuzleaf needs her. They start crossing, taking it slowly. Eevee almost slips at one point, but Dwayne catches her. Just as they reach the end, Dwayne takes Nuzleaf off Eevee as the poachers arrive nearby. One of the poachers sends out Seviper, and Dwayne sends out Turtwig. Seviper uses Bite, but Turtwig takes it without blinking. Effortlessly, Turtwig uses Headbutt to send Seviper back. Seviper rushes forward with Poison Tail, but Turtwig's Razor Leaf stops it, causing an explosion, creating black smoke that Nurse Joy spots, running towards it. Seviper uses Wrap on Turtwig, but he still manages to use Razor Leaf. While Seviper continues to Wrap, Turtwig repeats Razor Leaf multiple times, eventually dislodging Seviper and knocking it out. Dwayne congratulates Turtwig but notices him sitting there unresponsive, knocked out as well.

Dwayne recalls Turtwig as the other poacher sends Croagunk to attack with Poison Sting. Eevee shields Nuzleaf. Eevee steps up and dodges Croagunk's Brick Break before hitting with Double-Edge. Croagunk uses Poison Sting, but Eevee uses Swift that overwhelms Poison Sting. Nurse Joy arrives and wants to step in and battle, but Dwayne declines in that Eevee can handle this by herself. Croagunk fires another Poison Sting, with Eevee blocking and charging forward with another Double-Edge. Croagunk pins Eevee to the ground, but Eevee uses Swift to throw Croagunk off. Croagunk tries another Poison Sting, but Eevee dodges and uses Double-Edge to knock out Croagunk.

The other poacher prepares to send out his Pokémon, but a gust of wind overcomes the field as a real Shiftry appears. The poachers try to convince Shiftry that Dwayne and Joy are the bad guys and they slip away while Shiftry advances. However, the poachers gets back in their vehicle, and grabs Nuzleaf and place him in a cage. Shiftry uses Razor Wind to pop the vehicle's tires and free Nuzleaf. Shiftry saves Nuzleaf from the fall with a gust of wind. Dwayne has Eevee use Copycat to mimic Shiftry's Razor Wind to take down the poachers for good. Nuzleaf returns to the tree as Dwayne and Joy wait for the authorities to arrest the poachers.

During Dwayne's Oreburgh Gym rematch, Eevee was chosen as Dwayne's first Pokémon to battle against Roark's Onix. Eevee uses Double-Edge, but Onix quickly uses Slam. Eevee quickly dodges the attack and climbs onto Onix. Onix uses Screech to get Eevee off, but it fails. Onix tries to shake Eevee off, but she holds on tight. Eevee quickly uses Swift and hits Onix. Onix uses Double-Edge, but Dwayne tells Eevee to spin, avoiding the attack, and Eevee uses Double-Edge herself. Onix dodges the move, and then Onix slams Eevee right down to the ground. Onix uses Stealth Rock, but Eevee uses Swift and destroys every rock near it. It also hits Onix badly. Dwayne tells Eevee to use Double-Edge again. Roark tells Onix to use Screech, but before it got a chance, Onix gets hit, knocking Onix out. Roark recalls Onix and sends out Geodude. Dwayne decides to recall Eevee for the time being.

She later gets called back out to battle against Roark's newly-evolved Rampardos. Dwayne tells Eevee to use Swift, but Rampardos dodges and uses Zen Headbutt. Eevee tries to jump away, but is hurt by the Zen Headbutt. Eevee uses Double-Edge. Rampardos is about to use Headbutt, but Eevee jumps away. Rampardos throws Eevee off with its tail, and uses Zen Headbutt while Eevee returns the act via Copycat, but Eevee gets the worst of the collision. Rampardos uses Zen Headbutt one more time and Eevee is knocked out.

When Dwayne confronted notorious Pokémon Hunter Cage, Eevee was summoned to battle his Drapion. Cage becomes interested in Eevee, and decides to capture her, but first wants to watch Eevee's other attacks. Eevee responds with Double-Edge, and Drapion quickly dodges it. Cage's Dustox uses String Shot on Dwayne, binding him to a boulder, and Eevee uses Copycat to return the String Shot back at Dustox, binding it and prevent it from moving. However, Cage promptly freezes Eevee with his cannon. With Eevee stolen, Cage recalls his Drapion and Dustox, and leaves. Dwayne informs Melodi he wasn't able to rescue Gardevoir, and he got his Eevee stolen. Melodi then gets Dwayne untied. Dwayne and Melodi continue to chase the truck, but Cage escapes in a giant airship.

Officer Jenny and her Arcanine arrive, because they came as soon as they could when they learned that Cage was here, but they were too late to stop him. Jenny tells everyone about Cage's evil acts. Dwayne grows furious and vows to rescue his Eevee from Cage. Jenny has no idea where Cage went, because his identity is a mystery as no ever saw him without his mask on. After Cage steals others people's Pokémon, he makes his leave in his airship. Dwayne tells Jenny they can't chase Cage and the only way could catch Cage in the act is as if they could predict the next place he'll strike next. Melodi calls out her Kirlia so that the group will find out where Cage will strike next. Using its Future Sight, Kirlia shows the group Cage's next strike point. The next place Cage will strike is a small house with a waterwheel, right near the river, down at the end of the woods. Jenny notifies the other officers that she has determined Cage's next strike point and orders the officers to surround the area. After Jenny leaves, Melodi wonders if they'll get there in time, and Dwayne summons his own Gardevoir, and commands her teleport himself and Melodi towards Cage's location.

They spot Cage stealing an Absol and prepare to confront him. Dwayne demands Eevee back and Jenny, like all police officers, puts Cage under arrest. Cage thinks he should commend Dwayne for discovering his base, but orders Salamence to use Hyper Beam. Arcanine counters with Flamethrower. Arcanine is knocked out. Cage takes the Absol and makes his leave. Dwayne grabs onto one of Cage's vehicles. Melodi and Jenny try to stop Cage, but the truck takes off for Cage's base.

Dwayne infiltrates Cage's base. In the room where Cage has all the Pokémon he stole, as one of his minions catalog them, Dwayne's Golbat peeks into the room and flies back to tell his Trainer. Cage notices Golbat left the door open. He is now aware of Dwayne's presence and orders his henchmen to find him. As Dwayne and Golbat search for Eevee, Cage and his Drapion appear and capture Dwayne. Golbat hits Cage's Drapion with Aerial Ace, freeing Dwayen's from the scorpion's clutches. Dwayne sends out his Turtwig to assist Golbat in the battle. Drapion uses Poison Sting, but Golbat and Turtwig counter with Aerial Ace and Razor Leaf, but their attacks don't damage the evil scorpion. Drapion hits Golbat and Turtwig with Cross Poison.

Cage's henchmen have Dwayne, Golbat and Turtwig cornered, but they duck into the vents as Cage's minions continue to run after them. As Cage's minions chase after Dwayne, Turtwig takes them out with Razor Leaf. They enter the room where Golbat found Eevee and Melodi's Gardevoir. They rescue them, and are afterwards cornered by Cage's henchmen. One of Cage's minions sends out a Zubat. Before Zubat can attack with its Steel Wing, Dwayne tells Golbat to use Aerial Ace. Zubat gets back in the air and uses Supersonic, but Golbat hits Zubat with Quick Attack. The attack sends Zubat crashing into the airlock, destroying it and causing the air to rush out of the room. As everyone holds on, Dwayne recalls Turtwig and orders Golbat to find Jenny.

Cage notices what's happening and orders his ship's driver to detach the pod Dwayne and eevee are in. He'll need another Gardevoir and Absol for his clients. Cage's henchmen draw close to Dwayne and Eevee, who are still ready to battle. They notice the pod they are in had detached from the ship. Jenny and Melodi notice the pod Dwayne and Eevee are in is plummeting. As the pod plummets to the ground, both Gardevoir's use Teleport, and the two Psychic-type Pokémon successfully rescue, Dwayne, Eevee, Cage's henchmen and the imprisoned Absol escape from falling to their deaths. The Trainers are happy after being reunited with their Pokémon.

When Dwayne challenged the Veilstone Gym, Eevee was chosen as Dwayne's second Pokémon to battle against Maylene's Meditite. Eevee fires Swift, but Meditite uses Drain Punch to block the attack, although still suffering some measure of damage. As Meditite struggles with the damage that it took from Swift, Eevee switches to Double-Edge, which knocks out Meditite. Maylene summons Lucario to the field, the Pokémon ready to battle. Eevee uses Double-Edge as Lucario uses Bone Rush to block, and tosses Eevee against the edge of the battlefield, knocking her out.

Whilst training for their Pastoria Gym battle, Eevee was engaged in a mock battle against Dwayne's Gardevoir. Gardevoir starts things off with Psyshock}} and Eevee responds with Swift, resulting in a stalemate. Gardevoir uses Moonblast, but Eevee dodges and retaliates with Copycat, allowing Eevee to unleash a Moonblast of her own, but Gardevoir dodges and it accidentally hits Dwayne's Buizel. Buizel isn't very happy about being attacked by his teammate and tries to pick a fight with Eevee, but Turtwig intervenes and tries to push Buizel back. Turtwig tries too hard and makes Buizel fall on its back. Buizel, now very angry with both Eevee and Turtwig, uses Sonic Boom, but Dwayne gets in the way, taking the blow.

During the subsequent Gym battle against Crasher Wake, Eevee was chosen as Dwayne's first Pokémon to battle against Crasher Wake's Gyarados. Eevee makes the first move with Swift, which hits Gyarados, and it appears that it's going to take serious damage. However, Gyarados seems hardly phased; it charges up and uses Dragon Rage. Eevee counters with Double-Edge, and the overhand strike allows her to soar into the air, reaching apex right above Gyarados. Gyarados goes for Eevee with Bite, but to Crasher Wake's surprise as Eevee falls, Dwayne has Eevee use her growing momentum to go into Double-Edge. Eevee collides into Gyarados's face and Eevee stands out as the winner. Dwayne the promptly recalls Eevee for some rest.

Eevee is later sent back out to replace Buizel against Crasher Wake's Floatzel. Eevee uses Swift and Floatzel uses Whirlpool. The attacks collide and droplets of water fall, shocking Buizel out of its confusion. Eevee uses Double-Edge, but Floatzel stops it with Razor Wind, sending Eevee flying in the air. Floatzel jumps up and uses Ice Fang. Eevee falls backwards and recovers a little bit after the attack, only to find out that Ice Fang froze part of her back. Buizel, having watched Eevee give her all in spite of the difficultly she's having, wants to battle now and Dwayne sends it out. As Eevee and Buizel pass each other, they high-five and Buizel uses Water Gun to break the ice off Eevee's back. Eevee then spectates the battle and celebrates along with Dwayne and Buizel after they earn the Fen Badge.

During Dwayne's first battle against Vito, Eevee was chosen as his third Pokémon to battle against Vito's Empoleon. Eevee charges with Swift as Empoleon uses Hydro Cannon to block. Eevee dodges the blast as Empoleon rushes with Steel Wing, and Eevee counters with Double-Edge. Empoleon uses Steel Wing again as Eevee repeats Double-Edge. Eevee lands a few hits before getting knocked back. Empoleon fires Hyper Beam as Eevee gets hit, flying up in the air, seemingly defeated. Dwayne's plea for courage snaps Eevee back to action, ready to continue. Knowing that Empoleon is vulnerable after firing Hyper Beam, Eevee uses Copycat, allowing her to fire off a Hyper Beam of her own, knocking out Empoleon and giving Dwayne the win.

During the final stage of the Pokémon Triathlon, Eevee was called out by Dwayne to accompany him, as the rules stated that each Trainer needed to choose at least one Pokémon to race alongside them. After the race, Dwayne and Eevee battled together against Uriel and her Raichu. Uriel starts off by ordering Raichu to use Reversal, but Eevee dodges and uses Swift, and Raichu is unable to dodge, and gets sent flying. Uriel tells Raichu to use Volt Tackle, and Eevee retaliates with Double-Edge, and both attacks clash, but Eevee's attack proves stronger, and Raichu gets overpowered. While Raichu is mid-air, Uriel commands him to use Thunder, and Eevee manages to swiftly dodge before using Double-Edge. However, Raichu quickly uses Reversal while falling, and both Pokémon's attacks connect with each other, but Raichu suffers more damage due to their gap in strength. Raichu struggles to get back up, as Eevee easily kicks up and dusts herself off, showcasing her durability. Uriel praises Eevee's power, and says that Dwayne was truly amazing, and orders Raichu to use Volt Tackle, and Dwayne tells Eevee to use Swift, and Raichu gets thrown back by the sheer force of the attack, which knocks Raichu out.

Eevee was Dwayne's third Pokémon of choice during his Snowpoint Gym battle against Candice's Snover. Snover fires Razor Leaf as Eevee dodges, retaliating with a Double-Edge, causing severe damage. Eevee then roundhouses Snover with her tail and Snover hits back with Ice Beam, blasting Eevee up and away. As Eevee falls toward the field, Snover races forward and fires another, but Eevee recovers and quickly dodges, lunging with another Double-Edge. However, Snover's Bullet Seed stops Eevee before an Icy Wind sends Eevee slamming into the wall, leaving her to faint while sitting in her crater.

When Dwayne and Maria were tied up by Cage's Dustox's String Shot, Dwayne was barely able to remove Eevee's Love Ball and summon her to assist them. Dwayne asks Eevee to free them, and Eevee begins charging up Double-Edge but Dwayne tells her to stop, as Dwayne recognizes that none of Eevee's attacks were able to free them without hurting them, too. This leaves Eevee quite distraught, but Dwayne assures her that she wasn't at fault, and begins struggling, and while doing so, Dwayne's Ice Stone slips out of his pocket. Seeing this, Eevee puts on determined face and touches the Ice Stone, promptly evolving her into Glaceon. Glaceon then approaches Dwayne and Maria and fires off a weak Icy Wind attack, freezing the webbing and allowing them to easily break free. Dwayne hugs his newly-evolved Glaceon, and she playfully tackles him to the ground. However, Dwayne quickly focuses back to the situation at hand. When Cage was about to turn Regigigas into stone, Glaceon stops him with Blizzard and Ice Shard.

During Dwayne's first match at the Lily of the Valley Conference, Glaceon was chosen as his third and final remaining Pokémon against Alvin's Kricketune. Dwayne tells Glaceon to use Ice Shard, and Kricketune counters with Silver Wind, and the impact sends Glaceon back, although only slightly. Alvin tells Kricketune to use Sing, but Glaceon swiftly dodges and uses Swift, and Kricketune counters it with Fury Cutter. The two continue to attack with Lazuli watching the battle on the television. A strong impact from both attacks sends Kricketune flying. Alvin then tells Kricketune to use Sing, but just as it is about to use the move, Dwayne tells Glaceon to use Double-Edge, causing a small earthquake that causes Kricketune to lose its balance, allowing Glaceon to follow-up with Blizzard. With the strong power, Kricketune is knocked out, and Dwayne is the winner. Glaceon runs over to Dwayne and playfully tackles him to the ground, as Dwayne's friends cheer him on and congratulate him on his victory.

## **Personality and Characteristics**

From the moment she hatched from her Egg, Eevee immediately displayed a very playful demeanor, snuggling against Dwayne as a sign of affection, with Nurse Joy commenting that Eevee seemed to instantly feel attracted towards him, with their bond clearly seen with just a glance.

Being a newborn Pokémon, Eevee is very attached towards her Trainer, and dislikes being separated from him for long periods of time, and whenever Dwayne wasn't battling or training, Eevee was seen either napping on his lap or being groomed by him, with Eevee letting out a soft purr to express her contentment. Her attachment and loyalty towards him was shown when Eevee chose to be caught with a Love Ball rather than a standard Poké Ball. Her attachment remained strong a few months after her hatching, which was noted by Professor Oak due to Eevee's species being commonly known for being affectionate and loyal, with the added fact that Eevee was still fairly young, and much like all young living beings, still very emotionally attached towards those she views as a parent.

During their journey in Sinnoh, Eevee was slowly able to mature and gradually lost some of her clinginess, as Dwayne was rotating his Pokémon, with Eevee having periods in which she wasn't an active member of his team, but stopped trying to remain by his side at all times, although she remained quite attached towards him whenever she was active in his team, and whenever taking breaks from their travels, Eevee was always seen either close to Dwayne or directly napping on his lap. Because of her extreme attachment towards him and young age, Eevee also formed a sisterly bond with Dwayne's Gardevoir, whose devotion towards Dwayne was even stronger than Eevee's, and when not sticking close to Dwayne, Eevee was always seen next to Gardevoir, and whenever they found themselves in danger, Gardevoir was always seen shielding Eevee from harm.

When Eevee realized that, in her current form, wouldn't be able to free Dwayne from Cage's Dustox's String Shot at the Snowpoint Temple, she made the conscious decision to touch Dwayne's Ice Stone to allow her evolution into Glaceon, gaining the power needed to free him and Maria from their bindings, although she still retained her playful demeanor and affection, playfully tackling Dwayne to the ground when the young Trainer hugged her after her evolution. While still retaining her playful and affectionate demeanor towards her Trainer, Glaceon also developed a more assertive and slightly aggressive one that shows mostly itself during battles, seen when Glaceon bravely prevented Cage from stealing Regigigas and didn't waver when Cage turned his attentions towards her, merely letting out a confident grin when Cage locked eyes with her.
