The Shinx Line

Shinx
The Flash Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 403
Entry: A small, lion cub-like pokémon of the electric type. Shinx is referred to as the “flash pokémon” because of its the ability to disperse electricity into its fur using the extension and contraction of its muscular system; the tenser its body, the more electricity is pumped into its fur, which means the more its fur sparks and glows. However, it is important for trainers to note that this behavior is not exclusive to fear. Rather, shinx as a whole will do this whenever excited, including when they wish to play with their trainers. Which is to say, if considering training a newly hatched shinx, please be aware that you will be blinded. A lot.

Luxio
The Spark Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 404
Entry: The evolved form of shinx, by battle experience. As a member of the shinx line grows, it gains finer control over its electrical abilities. In its luxio form, it learns to channel electricity into its claws, rather than throughout its fur, and it uses this to deliver powerful electrical shocks to its opponents. Even the lightest scratch from a luxio is potent enough to render even the bulkiest pokémon unconscious. On that note, trainers who are considering raising a member of the shinx line should beware of luxio as well. Luxio, after all, have a habit of kneading their trainers’ laps to show affection, which is a behavior that has occasionally had very unfortunate consequences for more than a few humans.

Luxray
The Gleam Eyes Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 405
Entry: The evolved form of luxio, by battle experience. Luxray are gifted with the ability to see through walls. When its eyes light up and it stares intently at a wall, rest assured that this is normal for luxray and that it has simply spotted potential prey. On the positive side, this is the only strange thing about luxray, as it no longer channels electricity into its fur or claws when excited. On the negative side, if a luxray stares intently at your wall, you most likely have an infestation of rattata or pikachu. That and also, your luxray is very likely to Thunderbolt your wall and anything that happens to be in front of said wall (including, for example, you) without notice.
