Read more ↓Honedge is a unique Steel/Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI. It is known as the Sword Pokémon, and its design is directly inspired by a medieval sword, complete with a blue cloth-like appendage that resembles a sash or a ghost's wisps. According to Pokédex entries, Honedge is born when a departed spirit inhabits an antique sword. It is said to attach itself to people and drain their life force, making it a rather ominous creature. Honedge evolves into Doublade at level 35, which then evolves into Aegislash by using a Dusk Stone. Its unique typing gives it a variety of resistances and immunities, making it a formidable opponent in the games. In the anime, Honedge has made appearances, often depicted as a mysterious and powerful entity. Its design and lore draw heavily from historical weaponry and folklore, contributing to its distinct identity within the Pokémon universe. Its dual typing also provides it with interesting strategic options, particularly its ability to switch between offensive and defensive stances as Aegislash, making it a popular choice for competitive play.
