Unova Legendaries, Part III

Keldeo
The Colt Pokémon
Type: Water/Fighting
Official Registration #: 647
Entry: According to legends, Keldeo is known for two things: first, its ability to run across the surface of oceans and rivers by using its ability to emit jets of water from its hooves, and second, its desire to join the Swords of Justice. It wanders across the globe and battles using its highly acrobatic style in order to someday prove itself to the other three members of the legendary group. In that sense, Keldeo may be seen as a metaphor for pokémon training, including and especially regarding its journey to prove itself to figures who are questionable role models at best. And yes, this author is in fact referring to certain members of the Pokémon League who shall remain nameless but whose names rhyme with “Balder,” “Brimsley,” and “Hauntal.”
