Braixen

Braixen's trivia

Braixen is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 409, and in English its Fox Pokémon category is shared by Vulpix, Fennekin, Nickit and their evolutions. Its name may join braise with vixen, a female fox. Its wand-like branch likely draws on mages, and with the stick stored in its fur, its tail looks like a witch's broomstick.
