I really thought I was alone on this one lol.I personally think Eevee doesn't need gender differences whenever it's a secondary mascot or not. Although it does match up to Pikachu's, I find gender differences unnecessary for Eevee, since its evolved forms, even Sylveon, doesn't have a gender difference and that addition doesn't match the design language for Eevee, unlike Pikachu's (and normal Raichu's) which has been established since Gen 4.
Like, okay, gender differences are fine as a concept and it's pretty much harmless, but it's just because it's been over 20 years Eevee debuted and now they decided to make it a thing? And it's even more stupid once you realize it's a gender difference only Eevee gets it because none of it's evolutions get it, which is so weird to me.
So they are over 20 years late, it's not a big, noticiable difference, considering there's people today who are yet to notice it, adds nothing to the Pokémon and it begins and ends with the base form since it vanishes upon evolution. So what was the point?
