Espeon
Espeon, the Sun Pokémon, resembles a cat in build and possesses purple fur, a forked tail, and what appears to be a red jewel on its forehead. It is 0.9 m (2 ft 11 in) tall and weighs 26 kg (58 lb). Espeon made its debut in Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver.
As a Psychic type Pokémon, Espeon is offensively strong against Fighting and Poison types and defensively weak against Bug, Ghost, and Dark types. Eevee evolves into Espeon if it is happy during the day.

Name Origin
If one splits up the name, one gets "ESP" and "eon." ESP is an acronym for Extrasensory Perception, that outside of normal sensory activity, as in telepathy and clairvoyance. "Eon" is hazy, but it might refer to the fact that Eevee is in another "stage," or era of its life (as opposed to the stages of Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, and Umbreon).
