Pokemon X and Y confirmed

Hm, well if Light IS a new type, this would be it, because those were all light-based moves.

Bet it's normal, though.

WELL that's interesting

I'm sticking with Fairy if it's a new type. it fits better than all the other poop types people are throwing around.

also this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylph
and the german name translates to fairy
oh and nymph in french/japanese

the name is obviously based on fairies whatever that says about it's type.

[zephilicious]

Or spirit type i like that name better

[The Riddler]

Someone beat me to pointing out Sylph, which is fairy.

Fairys in Pokemon are usually Normal. I doubt it'll be a new type.

Echoed Voice: Learned by Eeve via leveling up.  Normal type move.
or
Hyper Voice: Learned by Eevee via Tutor. Normal type move.

Trump Card: Learned by Eevee by leveling up. Normal type move.
Swift: Only learned via Dream World, but still,  Normal type move.

I don't know what the third move is.

Could be a new move.

Also, seems you're forgetting that moves can change types when a new type is added (Bite was a Normal-type in Gen I, for example). None of those except Swift could even partially make sense as a "light type," but any type of Pokemon can use normal type moves.

Flying seems to definitely be out of the question by now. Like I said before, they're releasing this single Pokemon super early and highlighting it, so if it was a new type it would make sense. Going with either Normal or an unreleased type on this one.

general consensus is double edge, trump card,???, swift.

IE: all moves eevee learns and they mean nothing

[zephilicious]

i guess the moves you posted fit that too but whatever

Yeah, like I said, Normal type moves that every Pokemon type can learn. If they're being so secretive about its type, they won't show it using attacks that are so obviously a certain type (Flamethrower, etc)

Let me just say, at this point, if they withheld the type just for it to be Normal I'm not going to be happy. I'm actually starting to hope for a new type, just because I think it would be interesting.

This.
They're showing typical Eevee moves to keep the type a secret. That doesn't mean it's normal. The more I think about it the more I really really think it's a new type. A fairy type would be cool, but I can hear all the male Pokemon fans groaning already. A light type would probably be the most likely thing.

[zephilicious]

it doesnt looks any more like light than normal or flying (or dragon or bug of any of the other bullpoop i've seen popping up)

spirit has multiple definitions that fit both fairies (except more gender neutral) and light/holy

covers all the bases and it sounds better than anything else i've heard next to the other types

the only negative being that it's a little too close to ghost. but we already have rock/ground and water/ice

[Mona]

The only reason why I say Light over Spirit or anything else is because we already have a Dark type.

[zephilicious]

but as is always argued, if noa hadn't been trying to be so family friendly, dark would have been better translated as evil.

fighting (which in japan brings connotations of honor and goodness) is already supposed to be the opposite of dark

the moves related to shadows and darkness are all currently ghost type. spirit strikes me as a better name for the opposite of ghost than light does.

[Zero]

Spirit=Ghost though

What about "life" or "Creation" type? "Divine" type?

[zephilicious]

they're definitely not going to do anything with religious connotations
