This is Kagehikari, an Umbreon. He is different from the other Umbreons.
His name is Japanese romanji for "Shadowlight" and can also be written in katakana as カゲヒカリ, in hiragana as かげひかり, and in kanji as 影光.
Kagehikari is also my Umbreon Pokésona. With help from my DA sister (who wish to remain anonymous for the time being), I was able to bring him to reality. Thank you for your help drawing him, sister.
Kagehikari's Backstory
Kagehikari's father is a Jolteon named Kaminarikin ("Thundergold"), and his mother is a Leafeon named Jeidohana ("Jadeflower").
When he hatched as an Eevee, he had light-grey/silvery-white fur (like a normal Shiny Eevee) but his paws and the tips of his ears and tail were black/dark-grey. He also had dark-blue eyes. The colors of his fur inverted as soon as he evolved into an Umbreon, with white/light-grey at the paws and the tips of his ears and tail, and luminescent electric-blue eyes.
The white color to his rings, the different spiral shape to the ring on the head, and the addition of the white swoosh cheek marks under his eyes, all were the results of him learning a move prematurely. Eevees/Umbreons normally learn the healing status move Moonlight after evolving, not before, and of the Eeveelutions, only Umbreon can learn this move. But Kagehikari learned it when he was still an Eevee, although it had a different effect on him.
Several nights after learning the move, Kagehikari found himself in a chaotic battle under a full moon between a Sylveon named Miryokuhana ("Charmblossom"), a rouge Umbreon named Kuraihono ("Darkfire"), and three other Pokémon (a Spinda, a Teddiursa, and a Poochyena). While Kagehikari was healing himself using Moonlight, the Sylveon Miryokuhana and rouge Umbreon Kuraihono tried to attack him with Moonblast and Dark Pulse. The energies he absorbed from those attacks, combined with those he used to heal himself with while using Moonlight, triggered his evolution.
However, his evolution was altered, further changing his appearance, since the color of his rings became white ranther than blue, and the unusual black secondary fur color and markings and blue eyes of his Eevee form carried over, the fur colors inverted to white-on-black instead. Then his head ring was changed into a spiral shape rather than the normal ring shape, and on his cheeks appeared mirrored white swoosh markings, starting from his lower eyelids, back, down, and forward before tapering/fading. His cheek markings now glow as his rings do.
Additionally, Kagehikari acquired another typing, or at least gained the elemental properties of that type. Due to the Moonblast attack while he was using Moonlight, triggering his evolution, Kagehikari became an Umbreon who is also part Fairy-type, making him more resistant to Fairy-type attacks, while also making his own Fairy-type moves stronger.
After evolving, Kagehikari finally defeated Kuraihono and the battle dissipated, but he was forever changed as his evolution was far from normal.
Note: Polarissb on DA wrote a more detailed story behind Kagehikari's unique evolution, Once in a Lifetime: Umbreon (Kagehikari), as part of his literature project called Once in a Lifetime: Tales of Eeveelution, which involves a series of eight short stories about Eevee's evolutions.
