Pawniard is a formidable Dark/Steel-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V, native to the Unova region. It is known as the Sharp Blade Pokémon and is the pre-evolution of Bisharp, eventually leading to Kingambit. Pawniard's body is composed entirely of sharp blades, which it uses fiercely in battle. When these blades become dull from combat, Pawniard is observed sharpening them on rocks by the river, a testament to its diligent and predatory nature. Its diet primarily consists of other small Pokémon, which it hunts with remarkable precision. Pawniard often lives in groups, led by a Bisharp, and they are known for their coordinated hunting tactics. In the games, Pawniard is often found in caves and mountainous areas, reflecting its rugged disposition. Its unique type combination gives it resistances to many common types, making it a strategic choice for trainers. In the anime, Pawniard has been featured in various episodes, showcasing its sharp wit and battling prowess, often appearing alongside its evolved forms. Its design, reminiscent of a medieval knight or samurai, contributes to its cultural significance as a symbol of precision and combat readiness.
