Eevelution Mahou Shoujo - Leafeon
So I’m following a sort of design pattern via Magical Girls through the years kinda thing. Eevee was the simplest, given that early magical girls really just wore cute clothes rather than uniforms. The rest of the first gen girls are obviously Sailor Moon inspired. The second gen girls are inspired by Tokyo Mew Mew, which is an old favorite of mine, and the 4th gen girls (Leafeon, Glaceon) are heading into PreCure territory. Given that Sylveon looks like fucking Kyubey I’m not even going to try and be clever there.
So Leafeon, Aroma Lady trainer class, youngest of all the girls but by far the most mature. She has an optimistic outlook on life and tends to pick up the other girls when they’re not feeling so well. She sells flowers for her family business, but spends most of her free time simply wandering around talking to strangers and passer-bys. She also likes to make perfumes and teas.
As a magical girl she thrives in sunlight and warm areas. The more happiness around her, the stronger she is, and often she reflects that strength back to the others. She focuses on gathering energy from natural surroundings and focusing them into one off large attacks. Like Vaporeon, she can also use a range of healing moves and calming moves, together they keep the team moving.
Yeah, cool.
