Trivia

  • Vaporeon has the highest HP of all the Eeveelutions.
  • Vaporeon is the largest of all the Eeveelutions.

Origin

Like all Eeveelutions, Vaporeon has primarily mammalian features mixed with traits of many aquatic creatures such as tropical fish and seals. As it has been referred to as a mermaid, it is possible that Vaporeon is also based on the Merlion, a mythological creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish. It is possible that Vaporeon may also be a visual pun on the catfish.

Etymology

Vaporeon's name comes from the words vapor and eon. Vaporeon is only one evolution in a string of eight Eeveelutions and is the Water-type evolution. Also, its Japanese name, Shawaazu, is a pun on 'showers' as in the rain, like Jolteon and Flareon.
