If I had a shiny Eevee, I would evolve it into..?

Say that shiny Eevee was theoretically added to Pokémon Go and they're super rare - and you managed to catch one. It's IVs and levels are plausible, but not ideal. You've used up all of your name evolution tricks. Do you keep it the same and not evolve it? Roll the dice and take a random evolution, even though it's not meta? Or do you walk it and evolve into Umbreon, so it becomes the best looking (but also worst for attacking)? Or evolve into Espeon, so it's usable but hideous? Let me know!

For my own reply, I think I'd evolve into Umbreon. Mainly because it looks the best in my opinion, and it would be perfect to show off in gyms as a tanky defender that gets nuked by Machamp. I'd have a hard time evolving into Espeon since it's not an optimal raid counter for anyone other than Machamp.

Umbreon, unfortunately.
Whoever thought at the Poke Co. that green was a cool color for shinies, deserves a decade of color blindness.

There are some that seem to go well with green. Such as:
Machamp. Hulk smash! https://media-cerulean.cursecdn.com/attachments/thumbnails/16/423/530/530/mark-mcquillan-machamp.jpg
or Scizor, who looks like a mantis https://i.redd.it/usajr7bdxway.jpg
or Tangela https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7Wx00UgjQyI/maxresdefault.jpg

Machamp looks more like a bad fanart of Shrek.
But Scizor does look cool, I'll give you that. It looks as if Scyther kept it's color scheme upon evolving

If low IVs, I'd likely keep it an Eevee. Shiny Eevee is like an arctic fox, and shiny Umbreon is just... so and so. But I got to say, Espeon is not its worst for me, it's shiny Jolteon. It's like... sick... in a bad way.

Keep it as an Eevee! Even if it was a 100% IV Eevee, I'd keep a shiny Eevee as an Eevee.

Same here, I would keep all shinies in their original form unless there are two of a kind. They are for collections; one shiny is as good as the others.
