"Evidence that Pokémon once familiar to us have been spotted in the various dimensions linked together by Ultra Space, in the same way that Ultra Beasts have been spotted in our own dimension. Upon falling through an Ultra Wormhole, these Pokemon become bathed in a strange energy that seems to facilitate rapid changes and adaptations needed to survive in their new environments, among other speculated effects. We have dubbed them "dimensional forms," though internally we use the code name "ultra variant," or "UV" for short."

It seems that when exposed to the bizarre lands of Ultra Space, Eevee's evolutions take on new forms. I wonder what other strange forms we have yet to see! More info coming soon!
*More detailed lore later, but as a brief explanation on each one's inspirations:
-Vaporeon: polluted water, plastic debris and its impact on animals, mutations, oil and water don't mix
-Jolteon: overcharged long boi, they run through the skies and leave lightning trails behind them
-Flareon: explosive smoke cloud and shrapnel
-Umbreon: black holes and new moons because of Ultra Megalopolis's darkness theme
-Espeon: wise and (slightly) wrinkly sphynx cat with a 3rd eye
-Leafeon: bulky and ferocious tiger, stripes inspired by beta Leafeon
-Glaceon: bleached coral and asymmetry
-Sylveon: shinto shrine maidens and shide (zigzag paper streamers)
I think I got this accurate enough lol (Piers isn't really a villain himself btw, I still consider him the leader of a more mildly antagonistic group tho)
I made a new form of my favorite Pokemon to make it even MORE my favorite. Felt like a quality Future Paradox version of Reuniclus would give the best vibes for me lol
The High Priestess is the card of intuition, mystery, and inner knowledge. This card teaches what is hidden and shows the ability to travel the realms of the mind. When reversed, the high priestess indicates superficiality and confusion.

More info to come! But for now, which of these 3 will you choose, dear employee? (I promise I won't take it personally if you like Poipole over my designs lmao)
My villain rankings. Generally, the more charismatic or scarier you are as a villain, the more I like you. 😅
Masters definitely helped bumped up several of these, like RR Giovanni (him causing trouble for the other villainous teams and being such a threat that all the other villains joined in the battle to help bring him down was cool), Lysandre (giving him some much needed development with Sycamore, plus the bonkersness of him becoming the first main villain with a known kill count), and USUM Lusamine. (Giving her more attempt-at-redemption/fixing her damaged relationships development she needed in the original games.)
(I will say Masters made me like Rose a bit more too since he doesn't do anything so extreme, mostly just causes something of a minor political dispute, so Masters Rose is more around the "enjoyable" tier. I always had a problem that the original Rose couldn't just wait a single day, like Leon had agreed to help him, and you choose to jump the gun and bring about the apocalypse anyway without your safety net being there?! Him being the antagonist always just felt so forced when he's not really all that evil to begin with.)
Edit: whoops, forgot that I needed to go into ibis to add Volo since the tierlist I used didn't have him 🤦♀️
