Pansage and Simisage

Pansage
The Grass Monkey Pokémon
Type: Grass
Official Registration #: 511
Entry: A monkey-like pokémon native to Unovan forests. As a creature of the grass element, the average pansage is capable of growing plant-like structures from its body. In its case, a pansage’s hair is actually made up of a certain type of herb known for soothing stress and energizing an imbiber. On the one hand, this leaf, when brewed with boiling water, makes a fantastic tea. On the other, you have to consume this leaf knowing that you are eating monkey hair … which, the author supposes, is probably the least worrisome thing to anyone who regularly imbibes soothing herbs, in all fairness.

Simisage
The Thorn Monkey Pokémon
Type: Grass
Official Registration #: 512
Entry: The evolved form of pansage, by exposure to leaf stone. Simisage is known for its wild temper, which drives it to thrash its thorn-covered tail at offending pokémon. Trainers should be warned that there are a variety of possible triggers for these tantrums, so proper precautions should be taken to keep these incidents at a bare minimum. However, it should also be noted that the leading cause of these tantrums seems to be objects, humans, or pokémon touching its tall but bitter-flavored hair. Which, to be fair, is fabulously styled, so in this author’s opinion, the reaction is perfectly understandable.
