Which Synchronoise Eeveelution would work?

So, I know the only reason Synchronoise Umbreon exists only to be helpful for that Egg Move. However I don’t know which Eeveelution would work best. Espeon would be nice, if only it weren’t Psychic type…maybe perfect ev training would make it useful. Honestly I just don’t know. Is there anyway to make this move work?

On Espeon, synchronoise is almost always outclassed by psychic because there are more Pokemon that don’t resist psychic. On all the other Eeveelutions, it’s outclassed by hidden power because hidden power’s type can change to hit whatever threat you want.

There are only two occasions I can think of, and both are pretty rare and probably outclassed by other options.

VaporeonVaporeon learning Synchronoise can be used to counter the small selection of Water/Poison types. Unfortunately, if you’re fighting the two main Water/Poison Types (Tentacruel & Toxapex), Synchronoise is only a 3-Hit KO.

FlareonFlareon honestly has it worse because it only has a SP.A stat of 95. Even still, it’s capable of hitting the Fire/Fighting Starters for supereffective damage. It does a better job than Vaporeon, as all three of them are 2-Hit KO by Synchronoise.

The biggest downside of both of these cases is that Vaporeon and Flareon are nowhere near as competitively viable as anything Synchronoise would hit, so there’s no reason they would be in these matchups in the first place. Still, if you were doing a lot of Surfing in Gen 6 and your Eevee had Synchronoise as an Egg Move; you could slap a Waterstone on that baby, turn it into a Synchronoise Vaporeon, and plow through all the Tentacool you’ll eventually run into.
