What would you evolve a Shiny Eevee with a Calm nature? If this was the only Shiny Eevee you had.
 
I wouldn't evolve it, I couldn't permanently lock out the other evolutions unless i had more shiny Eevees. It probably wouldn't do well in battle but it would be perfect for contests.

If it did have a few shiny comrades it would depend on the other stats, but the ones to avoid would be Flareon and Leafeon who both really require that physical attack. All the others can make use of special and/or status moves.
 
I have a shiny Eevee but I don't think it is calm though. I evolved it into Sylveon since it is a bit harder than the others to evolve and I don't have to pick between it and another 6th gen evolution of Eevee since Sylveon is the only one.
 
Umbreon prolly. One of the better shinies and Calm is actually a good nature on it - it doesn't need Attack as it mostly uses Foul Play (or Snarl I guess).

Also Alexander's post has incredible irony after his recent crusade against Fairy Pokemon in multiple threads...

Edit: If you say so friend

It isn't ironic. Just because Sylveon isn't strong, it doesn't mean I don't want it. I just wanted a shiny gen 6 pokemon as I have few of those. Plus I don't have to pick between two or more of that gen because Sylveon was the only evolution of Eevee introduce of gen 6.
 
With calm nature - I wouldn't evolve it, I would keep it as an Eevee - in ORAS I would instead use it for contests
 
I don't even care about natures to be honest. I don't remember myself checking what nature my Pokémon have. I would evolve my Eevee into Umbreon possibly, since it is in my top 3 of overall.
 
Nature wouldn't really matter to me that much - a shiny is a shiny, enough said. I'd probably just evolve into whichever shiny I felt like at the time. So to skim through them...

Vaporeon - It's that particular shade of pink that more or less exactly fails to please the eye. Vaporeon's normally one of my favourites, but I'd give the shiny a miss.
Jolteon - A somewhat lurid green, to be quite honest. Probably my least favourite of the shiny eevees.
Flareon - Looks sort of like regular eevee, but fluffier, which is never a bad thing. I actually really like this one. Flareon would definitely be one of my top contenders.
Espeon - I'll confess espeon is normally my least favourite eevee. But the shiny's another story. For some reason, I find green works rather better for espeon than it did for jolteon, so this is definitely a consideration.
Umbreon - To be honest, I do feel a certain hype backlash for shiny umbreon. Sure I like umbreon, but I do feel it and in particular its shiny is overrated. Still a pretty shiny, though, so it might win me over regardless.
Leafeon - Basically a slightly ginger version of regular leafeon, with greener leaves. There are much better things they could've done with this shiny, all things considered.
Glaceon - Again, its body is white, and the rest is a brighter blue, but it doesn't look distinct enough from the regular form. If I had multiple shiny eevees, I might consider this since I think glaceon's the prettiest eevee, otherwise, I'd go for something else.
Sylveon - Bloody terrifying! Seriously, regular sylveon's creepy, empty pale blue eyes were one thing, but this is the stuff of nightmares! I'd consider getting one for comedy value, otherwise I'd stay away.

So I'd go flareon. That, espeon, umbreon and sylveon are the worthwhile shinies, I'd say, but I'm not fond of espeon, shiny umbreon feels overhyped to me, and sylveon, well, I've said enough about sylveon. Flareon's definitely my favourite shiny eevee.

Edit: Yay, I am apparently the only person to vote for flareon! Also, apparently 4 people enjoy having nightmares. :p
