To catch Eevee, you will need either a copy of Pokémon Black 2 or White 2. You cannot get Eevee in Black or White; it must be Black/White 2. In Black and White, you can only get Eevee by trading or the Dream World.

-
Go to Castelia City. It is the big city that you can reach by boat from Virbank City. This is the only place you can catch Eevee in the game.
-
Buy yourself a great deal of Poke Balls. Eevee has a low catch rate.Advertisement
-
Head right and go onto the pier next to the entrance.
-
Once on the pier, head onto the small deck and go down the stairs. Bear in mind, if you haven't been here before, Iris will be there and so will Hugh, your rival. So be sure to come here again after that point in the story.
-
Go up and follow the path until you see a left turning.Take it. You should see some stairs, go up them.
-
You will see a small garden with a tree. The guy there says that it was the beginning for Castelia City.
-
Walk through the grass until you find an Eevee. Eevee has only a 5% chance of appearing in the grass.The other Pokémon that can be found there are: Audino (shaking grass), Lilligant (White 2), Buneary (Black 2), Cottonee (Black 2), Whimsicott (Black 2), Delcatty (White 2) Pidove (White 2 and Black 2), Lopunny (Black 2), Petilil (White 2), Rattata and Skitty (White 2).
-
It is disheartening, but don't give up. It may take a while but you will eventually find one. Only then will you be able to catch it. You can only find it at level 19.
-
Finally, when you're in battle with it, lower its health to about 7%. Use a Poke Ball on it. You're unlikely to catch it first time, so be patient. An Ultra Ball gives a higher catch rate than an ordinary Poke Ball.

Tips from our Readers
The advice in this section is based on the lived experiences of wikiHow readers like you. If you have a helpful tip you’d like to share on wikiHow, please submit it in the field below.
- Not all Eevees are on Level 19. I found one on level 18, which doesn't make a huge difference but it's good to know that there are other opportunities.
- If you go to Castelia and go to the third floor at one of the hotels, you'll find Aminita. She'll give you a level 10 Eevee.
- If you already have an Eevee or any of its evolutions, they may not appear to you even if you complete all the steps.
- Have a lead Pokemon that is level 17-18 and use repels. This makes it more likely that you'll encounter an Eevee.
- If the Eevee is paralyzed or sleeping it will be easier for you to catch.
