Relax, hipster. Nobody's forcing you to use them.
Ah good old sppf, where lack of reading comprehension and strawman arguments go hand in hand.And then what, that Evolves into 18 other Pokémon as well?
Eevee's sole gimmick is that it changes Type depending on its Evolution.
It not changing Type would both be counter-themed, counter-productive, and just plain strange.

Counter-themed, absolutely. Counter-productive and strange? You'll have to elaborate further.

nobody said anything about the normal eeveelution branching off and evolving yet again, that's just what you assumed because it would remain a normal type.I was eferring to you Normal Eeveelution bit, which, if still thematically Eevee, would branch off again.
Counter-Productive as in that it goes against the means of Eevee's line, and what it is supposed to give, but I guess tht could be fit under Counter-themed by some.
Strange is simply opinionated; I find it odd that a Pokémon who'se entire gimmick is change, would end up not doing that.
I don't appreciate people putting words in my mouth. I never stated that game freak should make an eeveelution for every type. However, I can see it happening eventually in future generations due to their popularity.It's not even about using them. It's about Game Freak shoving the line in everyone's face. Plus, having Eeveelutions for EVERY type sounds painfully redundant.

Just because this theoretical eeveelution doesn't undergo a type change, doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't change at all (hence mega evolution). Like you said, Eevee's gimmick is its ability to evolve to many types of forms; having that one eeveelution that has the ability to mega evolve would balance its lack of type change.
All the megas introduced this gen are all essentially gimmicks. None of the megas they introduced were really necessary.I'm still not understanding why Eevee has to really mega-evolve...at all. It's like trying to make a Mega Arceus from one type when it already has plenty of options to choose from.
Still waiting on that Steel Eevee that's able to passively support your team with Heal Bell because that would be pretty cool...not that Eeveelution is really at the top of my list anyway. XD
Basically, Eevee is already gimmicky enough (evolution-wise) and doesn't need a lot of help with that.

iirc, thread's about missed mega opportunities, not how 'gimmicky' a theoretical mega eevelution would be.
Yep it started to feel like a thread where people complain about why their favorites didnt get a mega while making them gain 2 completely different types that they feel they should have so that no initial trace of their evolutionary line is left intact making them completely different mons with mivesets and stabs that will make greninja and arceus look like a kakuna soaming harden while adding the next moldbreakekgaleilatefilterbounceguardgutsssure making them so op only a quick ban will fix any fun left on the game. Ir just adding megas coz of simmetrical reasons since x got a mega his countetpary y should get one too.Then too, none of them have the problem of having multiple possibilities which is really the point this discussion has reached.
By the way this, which has essentially turned into a ' fan boy/girl's wish-list' thread, so...
Drapion should get one
Mega lilligant,
