#680 Doublade
“Doublade (Japanese: ニダンギル Nidangill) is a dual-type Steel/Ghost Pokémon introduced in Generation VI.
It evolves from Honedge starting at level 35 and evolves into Aegislash when exposed to a Dusk Stone.
Doublade is a Pokémon composed of two swords. Each sword has a silver blade and a light gray hilt. Embedded in each hilt is a single, pink gem with a dark center that appears to be an eye. Attached to each pummel is a long, dark purple sash with a pink swirl pattern on the tip; the tip of the sashes split into four tassels. Doublade has two sheathes that are attached to a plaque. The sheathes are varying shades of brown with lines forming a triquetra pattern across the front. Near the top of each sheath are white teeth-like markings and rings with white centers that resemble eyes. A third ring extends onto the hilt and encircles the actual eye.
Doublade excels in both defensive and offensive strategies. Doublade’s two swords are able to communicate telepathically, and they use this ability to carry out complex attacks that are unstoppable even by those skilled at swordplay. When rubbing its two blades together, Doublade can emit a metallic sound that is unnerving to the opponents.”-Bulbapedia.
