when does the trophy garden owner say that he has an evee?
There is no one set time, instead, you need to do something to essentially play the odds and get them to end up in your favor. This except from Pokemon Platinum Trophy Garden Guide has the trick you need to get Eevee to appear:
Manipulation of Mr. Backlot
The Soft Reset:
This trick is easiest to do with the use of a Soft Reset. To Soft Reset your Pokemon game, press and hold L+R+Select+Start. This will take you back to the Title Screen of Pokemon Platinum. With this, you will not have to Hard Reset your DS, where you turn your DS off then turn it back on. This is a huge time saver, as you can expect to do this at least a dozen times unless you get lucky early on.
The Manipulation Procedure:
Mr. Backlot is in the first room on the right hand side of the Pokemon Mansion.
Before you talk to this man, SAVE YOUR GAME!
He will brag a bit, just say “Yes” to both questions he asks or he won’t move on.
After the second question he will claim a particular Pokemon will come into the Garden, walk up to him and kiss him on the cheek. The butler will disagree, then Mr. Backlot will have a quick aside then claim he always tells the truth as the Butler leaves the room.
If the Pokemon kissing him on the cheek is not the one you want, Soft Reset your game and try again
Any Pokemon he mentions in the Trophy Garden will stay there for 2 days. This allows for some overlap the next day when one can repeat the procedure to add a second Pokemon to Trophy Garden.
Finally, a new generation of Pokemon for us to enjoy. There is much to look forward to in 2011!
