* WhamShot: During Brock's [[CurbStompBattle "battle" with Molly]] in Chapter 55 (Spell of the Unown 1), we get this when Ninetales fires a second Dark Pulse at Molly's Flareon:
--> Rather than reverting to an Umbreon, though, Molly's peculiar Eevee glowed – and changed into something neither of them had ever heard of.\\
The Dark Pulse crackled across her pink fur, mostly dissipating, and then the Pokémon smiled at them.\\
"Sylveon!" it announced, shaking out its long furry tendrils.\\
"What's that?" Brock asked.\\
"Do you like her?" Molly asked. "That's a Sylveon! It's a really pretty evolution of Eevee!"
