My Favorite Pokemon of Each Type: Day 17(Steel)

ah, i remember when i first saw Honedge. i instantly loved his design. it was just so perfect and so clever the way his sheath made a fake face and his his tassel looked like an arm, plus the way he unsheathed himself was so cool… oh yeah, it was love at first sight. he was so perfect, in fact, that i was scared he would evolve into something lackluster and predictable, like a haunted suit of armor that everyone seemed to want.
well, a few months later they revealed Doublade. i’ll admit, i was a bit disappointed at first, considering they literally just stuck two Honedge together and made them pink. but over time, his(their?) design grew on me once i realized that “one Honedge = cool, so two Honedge = twice as cool? also pink is an awesome color so”.
and then, as fate would have it, i was spoiled by a leaked picture of Aegislash. and i was really quite dissatisfied with his design. it took away everything i loved about Honedge and Doublade. instead of a sheath that cleverly made a false face, it just had a shield, and its disguised tassel arm now was two straight-up arms, complete with elbows. it just… wasn’t the same.
but i found myself coming back to that photo, and each time i did that i warmed up to Aegislash more and more. and eventually i ended up loving him just as much as his previous forms, and even more now(i think what sealed the deal was his adorable eating animation in Pokemon-Amie)
well that was a boring story sorry about that
honorable mentions: Magnezone, Escavalier, Honedge, Doublade
