## Character Biography

### Physical Appearance

Blade is a tall green/yellow-colored anthropomorphic *Scyther*. He seems to bare a resemblance to a (praying) mantis, though he also has reptilian features. Extending within the top from his head are a group of sharp protruding horns with light green stripes, apparently, these "horns" are actually his antennas. either that or they just behave in a similar manner like one. He has brown eyes pupils with the inner color of the pupil being black, underneath his eyes are light green spots sectioned on his cheeks. Blade has a short, but rigid sharp beak-like snout with heart-shaped nostrils and a single sharp fang extending from inside his mouth being exposed. He has big spherical, dark green-colored shoulders, which leads to yellow arms that soon lead to large scythe/blade like appendages, the inner color of the scythe/blade is a white color, with a single vertical line striping downwards located on it as well. Blade's torso is also quite unique-looking, the sides of his torso is a green color, whilst the front is a yellow color, but in between the yellow color are the same green colors, but this time with a horizontal stripe crossing through the green color.

His torso is conjoined to a yellow segment which is also attached to his thorax, which has a color palate and appearance similar to the horns on his head, there's segmented lines on the thorax, and between the segmented lines in the center of the thorax is a lighter green color. Attached to his thorax are, similar to his shoulders, dark green spherical thighs, however on the top are two protruding spikes, the other spike being taller than the other second one. This leads to yellow legs which are attached to long green feet, in the center of the feet is a massive single dark green stripe, there's three sharp claws extending from the front of his feet. Blade then has massive yellow wings, despite them being clearly big enough for him to take off into the air and fly, he instead mostly uses them to glide around or as a sort of booster while sprinting, the top of the wings have a darker green color. As for the accessories, Blade wears an orange helmet and green transparent glasses, wrapped around his arms are tan-colored bandages, this might also be silk, but it's not known.

### Pokédex Entry (Character Bio)

Blade's power/type is **Bug**/**Flying**. He's shown to be very active and energetic, as he runs around at high speeds slicing down objects with his scythes, mainly trees and logs, however, when attacked by another Pokémon character or during a Pokémon Battle, he won't hesitate to use them on others, which could smoothly, and easily slice them into two halves, or possibly into multiple pieces. However, Blade is shown to rarely use these scythes on other unless absolutely necessary, but, whenever he gets scared or frightened, he aimlessly slashes his scythes around in the air, which could slice anyone within his vicinity into multiple pieces by accident. Blade has an interest in video games, more specifically parkour-themed games in which the hero must compete against enemies to reach the end of the level, and apparently, Blade's taken such an interest in them that he often tries to behave like a video game character by doing various stunts such as back/front-flipping and fighting against other Pokémon characters as if they were the enemies from the games he's played. Blade can also move so fast that only a blur is left behind, he can even create an illusion that there's multiple clones of them at once, which can highly confuse his enemies and can actually make them dizzy if he sprinted in circles around them.

When Blade isn't playing video games or behaving like a video game character, he's shown working as a lumberjack, which is highly makes sense due to his scythes easily being able to slice down trees and logs. He also works with Herculean the Heracross, who's strong and can easily carry the heavy logs and tree remains that Blade sliced in half. This is a good job as whenever he slices objects with his scythes, they become sharper. Unfortunately, even while working he's still shown to behave like a parkour video game character, occasionally doing backflips off various objects which can lead to various disastrous scenarios (e.g. Jumping off a large tree with chops at it's side, which could fall over and crush anyone within the area including structures). Blade's also shown in most instances trying to behave like a superhero and save other Pokémon characters, surprisingly, this usually goes well due to Blade's highly acrobatic ability, fast speed, fast-thinking and especially his scythes which can come in handy. But like everyone else, he sometimes makes certain mistakes which leads to everything going terribly wrong. Despite having wings, he doesn't use them to fly, but as a speed booster to leap out faster at either other characters or to get into a certain area.

## Relationships

List of relationships Blade has with other characters in the series.

### Friends/Allies

#### Herculean the Heracross

The two managed to easily get along with each other as they both work as lumberjacks and use their unique skills to get through the job well. She also apparently likes the way Blade behaves like a video game character and finds him interesting, much to Tweak the Pinsir misfortune who has a crush on the *Heracross*.

#### Drilby the Beedrill

They both surprisingly get along well as they're both interested in video games. Another interesting thing is that they both have weapons for hands, Drillby's hands are drills (hence her name), whilst Blade's are scythes, and when they fight together they can easily take out many threats at once.

## Blade's Episodes

All of the *Fiction Pokémon Foes* episodes Blade has starred, featured or appeared in.

## Fates

All of the times Blade has died, or been injured throughout episodes of the series. His deaths typically involve extreme heat such as fire, being eaten alive, getting crushed by large objects such as boulders, being electrocuted and being frozen too death or impaled by ice shards. His deaths can ironically involve being sliced in half, which is his most way of causing other character's deaths.

## Kill Count

All of the times Blade has accidentally, or purposefully killed other characters in episodes of the series. His kills mainly involve his scythes, in which he waves them around aimlessly whenever he's scared, slicing anyone nearby him into pieces, or he slices others in half whenever he's attacked by them. His kills also revolve around Blade performing like a video game character, in which he may bounce of various objects, sometimes including other characters which is always by accident.

## Trivia

* The concept of him behaving like a parkour ninja/video game character comes from part of *Scyther's Pokédex Entry* which explains: "*Leaps out of tall grass and slices prey with scythes. The movement is like that of a ninja*".
* He's one of the fastest Pokémon characters in the series, being fast enough to make an illusion that there's multiple clones of them.
* It's speculated that he doesn't fly because he's too heavy for them, which might be the case so he instead uses them to leap out at enemies for quickly.
* When frightened, his voice becomes way more high-pitched than one would expect.
* In old concept artwork, Blade was entirely blue with a green secondary color, it would soon be changed into a green turquoise-like color with his new secondary color being yellow.
* His scythes actually can't slice through a *Tarountula's* elastic webs.
