Are any of those pungent? I don't want a pungent one.

Gruyere: No
Swiss: No
Edam: It's unclear whether edam is pungent or not. It would depend on how it's prepared, and possibly on the person or people doing the preparation.
Chevres: It's unclear whether chevres is pungent or not. It would depend on how it's prepared, and possibly on the person or people doing the preparation.

Okay, so I will try one with swiss cheese. Do I mix anything with it?

There are no strict rules for fondues, but here's some popular variation suggestions:

Pour a cup of Creme de Cassis (or similar liquid) into a bowl.
Drop in the Swiss and let it rest in the liquid for a few minutes, then fish it out with a fondue fork or toothpick.
Drizzle in a little more Creme de Cassis and re-fish out the Swiss.
Mix in a cup of whipping cream, and let it soak into the fondue for a few minutes before re-fishing out the Swiss.
