Meet Espeon, the rad Pokémon of Psychic types! It's a sight to see Espeon out in the 2nd generation battlefield. There were no known abilities back in the Gold/Silver Pokémon games. It is weak to Bug, Dark, and Ghost-typed attacks. Curious about Espeon's movesets? Check our suggestions listed below!
Espeon is a stupendous Special Sweeper. It is meant to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Years before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
♦ Psychic is a special STAB-boosted 90-base power Psychic-type move (10% chance to lower the target's special defense by 1 stage). ♦ Psybeam is a special STAB-boosted 65-base power Psychic-type move (10% chance to confuse the target). ♦ Bite is a special 60-base power Dark-type move (30% chance to flinch the target). ♦ Morning Sun is a status move (heals your Espeon by a weather-dependent amount). ♦ Growth is a status move (raises your Espeon's special attack by 1 stage).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula. It is simply calculated using typing weaknesses and resistances from the selected type-matchup modifier along with STAB (if applied) to help sort through and give a general idea as to how powerful certain moves might be towards that selected typing after modifiers are applied. Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
