Eevee is an adorable pokemon, no doubt. It also has different uses, because of it's many eeveelutions. (E.G Leafeon, Umbreon, Slyveon) But does anyone JUST use eevee? I don't think it's actually possible though, because it would eventually evolve into Umbreon/Espeon.
EDIT: realized B button and everstone

Eevee isn't really viable competitively whatsoever, even in Little Cup and there are ways to prevent a Pokemon from evolving in game such as using items like the Everstone or just pressing the B button during an evolution attempt.
 
Just Eevee isn't very competitive in any ways in terms of stats and moves unless it actually evolves giving more expanded movesets . I don't ever see anyone just use Eevee in competitive battling and just as Lios said , you can always press B or give the Everstone to prevent evolving :p
 
my fave eeveelutions are sylveon and umbreon. i just cant wait to see any new evolutions of eevee they missed like steel type, ghost type, poison type, dragon type, and ground type. i could draw up ideas but what would be the point? my ABSOLute fave types are psychic, dark, and ghost.
 
I mean an Eevee could slightly be useful in VCG in doubles maybe a bit if all Pokemon was bad X_X

Eevee @ Choice Band/Life Orb
Level: 5
Ability: Adaptability
EVs: 236 Atk / 36 Def / 236 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Double-Edge/Return
- Quick Attack
- Bite
- Iron Tail

The only set for LC on Smogon. Eevee's stats are pretty bad :/
 
You can use Sylveon as a cleric.
Sylveon@Leftovers
Evs:252HP,220DEF,36SPD
Bold nature
Ability:pixilate
Move 1:Wish
Move 2:Healbell/Toxic
Move 3:protect
Move 4:Hyper beam
Tadaa! Sylveon is a cleric ;).
 
Umbreon is bulky so you can use it for Wish+Protect Stall.
Umbreon @ Leftovers
Ability: Synchronize
Nature: Calm
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
- Wish
- Moonlight
- Heal Bell
- Foul Play

You can run many sets on Sylveon. I actually have 2 sets for Sylveon. The Cleric set that @Evelyn showed above (Although I would run Hyper Voice rather than Hyper Beam, the turn to recharge could help the opponent switch in against it..) and a Choice Specs Sylveon. It's evil! I named my Choice Specs Sylveon; BowsofDeath.. 'Cause.. ya know..

Sylveon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Pixilate
Nature: Modest
EVs: 252 SpAtk / 252 HP / 4 SpDef
- Hyper Voice
- Psyshock
- Shadow Ball
- Hidden Power Ground.
 
Oops I accidentally wrote hyper beam I meant hyper voice
 
I never used just Eevee competitively. and being honest a regular Eevee is probably pretty bad in battle. However on occasions I use A Jolteon(which can easily be replaced with a Raichu) and that is all

Leafeon can be used as a physical sweeper or a wall/cleric:

Lefeon @ Life Orb
Chlorophyll
Adamant Nature
252 Attack/84 Speed/168 HP/4 Sp. Def
- Leaf Blade
- Knock Off
- X-Scissor/Sunny Day
- Swords Dance

Whether you use Sunny Day or X-Scissor depends on if you have Drought/a supporter with Sunny Day or not. 84 Speed EVs is to make sure you outspeed Scarfed/+1 base 100 Speed Pokémon (at Lv. 50). Everything else is thrown in HP for extra bulk except for 4 EVs in Sp. Def to get an odd HP number.

Leafeon @ Lefovers
Leaf Guard
Impish or Bold Nature
252 HP/252 Def/4 Attack or Sp. Attack
- Giga Drain/Leaf Blade/Knock Off
- Synthesis/Wish
- Protect
- Toxic/Heal Bell

Straightforward set. If you want to use Giga Drain then get Calm Nature, Leafeon's Attack is (much) higher than it's Sp. Attack so Impsh with Leaf Blade (STAB) or Knock Off (utility) might be your preferred option. Synthesis gives you immediate recovery and is boosted to 75% if under the sun, but keep in mind that it heals only 25% under rain, sandstorm or hail. Wish heals 50% HP consistently and works well when paired up with Protect; it can also be used to heal injured allies. The last slot you can use Toxic for some stalling or Heal Bell for support.

I agree with this. If you can switch into a physical attack, it could take it decently (it's not THAT bulky). But its attack is pretty respectable and can punch holes, especially with Life Orb.
