The Honedge Line

Honedge
The Sword Pokémon
Type: Steel/Ghost
Official Registration #: 679
Entry: Do not come into physical contact with this pokémon unless you would like to spend an evening having a conversation with medical specialists concerning the removal of either your arm or the honedge. But should the reader be curious, the sword strap is actually quite nice. Very soft leather, I think.

Doublade
The Sword Pokémon
Type: Steel/Ghost
Official Registration #: 680
Entry: The evolved form of honedge, by battle experience. Upon evolution, honedge splits into the two telepathically-linked swords that form doublade. On the positive side, at this point, the surge of evolutionary energy will temporarily stun the pokémon long enough for its victim to pull themselves free from its strap. On the negative side, the stunning lasts for roughly four seconds before doublade launches into a vicious double-bladed attack, and as both swords possess separate but perfectly synchronized minds that are capable of formulating a strategy between them, said double-bladed attack is typically extremely difficult for the average hospital staff to stop.

Aegislash
The Royal Sword Pokémon
Type: Steel/Ghost
Official Registration #: 681
Entry: The evolved form of honedge, by exposure to dusk stone. Aegislash possesses two forms: the sword form, in which it uses its bladed body to launch a vicious assault, and the shield form, in which it uses its iron shield to block practically any attack. Rising kings of medieval Europe were frequently given aegislash passed down from their fathers, partially because aegislash were effective guards for the crown and partly because aegislash are inherently attracted to those of royal blood. The latter is notable in that newly evolved aegislash, such as those that were accidentally exposed to a trainer’s dusk stone, will instantly calm and gravitate towards humans they perceive as being worthy of the crown, such as one very confused emergency room receptionist. Unfortunately, as aegislash also possess the innate tendency to protect the humans it claims as its charges, this is rather bad news for anyone it perceives as a threat, such as the completely innocent researcher who brought it there after what was already a very long Friday night.
