## **Physical Appearance**

Nyx is a massive Yveltal with unkempt plumage, bright glowing yellow eyes and small black pupils. She later gains five red scars over her left eye. The back of her body is black with red diamond-shaped spots along her wings and tail. The rest of her body is yellow with branching black markings throughout and is covered in red battle scars. She has red markings around her eyes and six long, powerful, muscular draconic arms ending in large five-fingered hands, each of which has sharp red claws. Her wings, tail, and birdlike legs are also unusually long, and a red ruff of feathers circles her lower neck and billows out over her back. Her hands and feet are black with flame patterns on her lower limbs, and she has a powerful, pointed, beak-like snout with a mouthful of sharp, serrated teeth. A massive black horn curves forward over each eye, accompanied by a thinner, antenna-like growth behind each eye. She has a very long, muscular neck, around which she initially wears a necklace of stones and Pokémon teeth. She also used to wield a spear with a head made of black granite and red feathers on it. When enraged, her entire body turns black with her eyes and markings glowing bright red.

### **Chapter 1: A Successful Raid**

Nyx flies over a small town, scaring off the people who see her. She relishes the frightened cries that ring out below her and lets out a loud roar, signaling to her Horde to attack. She fires a Dark Pulse at a few buildings, causing them to explode, then listens as her subordinates start attacking the townspeople and plundering their goods. Several residents send out their Pokémon to fight off her and the Horde, but Nyx turns them all to stone by using Oblivion Wing on them, doing the same to anyone who tries to interfere. Watching her Horde causing destruction and chaos, she delightedly helps out by producing shockwaves with her wings to demolish buildings. She swoops in and swallows several people who are sent flying by the winds. She also eats the Pokémon of those who send them at her and watches the destruction with pleasure, knowing the residents are powerless to stop her.

Nyx flies in and starts stealing goods herself, knocking aside anyone who tries to protect them. As she does this, she notices a Carbink staring at her from some distance away before hopping off. She pursues the Carbink only to find it has disappeared. Nyx ponders about it, knowing Carbink usually aren't seen around settlements.

She then meets Cerberus, her Houndoom second-in-command, who reports that they've plundered everything they can. Pleased, Nyx tells Cerberus to give the order to leave, and he runs off to do so. Nyx then flies off with the goods she stole and looks down to see the members of the Horde following shortly after with their own loot.

### **Chapter 2: Yama**

Nyx goes hunting with two of her subordinates: Percy the Murkrow and Vicky the Mandibuzz.

### **Chapter ?: The Final Battle**

Nyx and her forces begin struggling to hold their own against the rebels now thanks to Ahsoka and her reinforcements. Ahsoka and Kaitlin confront Nyx themselves alongside Mira, who reveals herself to be the one who helped the rebels all along. An infuriated Nyx finds the strength to fight off both Kaitlin and Ahsoka with Dual Wingbeat and launches a Focus Blast attack at Mira, branding her a traitor to the horde. Mira snarls that she'd rather die than serve her son's killer; at this, the other Zoroark all turn on the Horde and attack Nyx, furious that she was responsible for their young member's death. Nyx launches an Oblivion Wing at them and the rebels, but Gina and Kaitlin combine their respective Aurora Beam and Moonblast attacks to counter it. The combined moves overpower the Oblivion Wing attack and hit Nyx, dealing super effective damage and weakening her. However, she recovers and retaliates with Flash Cannon, taking both by surprise.

Kaitlin and Gina are knocked down by the attack, shocking the rebels. Nyx screams for the Horde to finish them off and fires a Dragon Pulse at the rebels to assist her forces. Ahsoka, Mira, and several others are able to dodge the attack and manage to fight through the throngs of Horde members. Seeing this, Nyx fires another Oblivion Wing at them, but Ahsoka's parents and several other rebels jump in to take the hit, getting turned to stone in the process. The Yveltal then feels a stabbing pain in her back; she cries out and looks over her shoulder to see Rino stabbing her with a syringe. Panicking, Nyx flies around wildly in an attempt to throw Rino off before soon succeeding. Feeling slightly tired, she watches as Rino begins to fall and opens her mouth wide, intending to swallow her whole. Suddenly, Nyx is sent flying backward Aurora Beam and Moonblast, and she looks on shock as Ahsoka and Mira, riding on Starfire's back, catch Rino. Ahsoka commands Starfire to use Ice Beam, which Nyx counters with Flash Cannon before flying down to the city.

She is shocked to see her forces being driven away by even more people and Pokémon. Nyx is then bombarded by a Diamond Storm attack launched by Kaitlin, sending her reeling. She gets up and flies higher, only to be rammed and caught by Starfire. The Yveltal sees Ahsoka and Rino jumping onto her back and stabbing her with swords. She begins screeching and wailing in pain as the two continue wounding her, flailing about wildly and clawing at Starfire to get her off. However, Ahsoka and Rino then jump off her and back onto Starfire, who quickly flies away. Confused, Nyx looks up just in time to see Gina and Kaitlin coming at her with Dazzling Gleam. The combined attacks land, sending Nyx crashing to the ground and weakening her to the point where she can no longer battle.

Lying on the ground, Nyx weakly looks around to see that the rest of the Horde has fled. A sword is then pointed at her face, and she looks up to see Ahsoka glaring down at her along with everyone else. Ahsoka tells Nyx that it's over and commands her to surrender. Sighing, Nyx pretends to submit before slamming her tail onto the ground and causing an earthquake. While everyone is distracted, she jumps up and manages to lift off into the air. Knowing she lost the war she started, Nyx flees by flying into unknown territory, believing she can survive on her own now and that she doesn't need anyone. She eventually finds a secluded cave in a forest and allows herself to crash-land in front of it before crawling in. Exhausted, she then passes out, thinking about Ahsoka, her family, and the Pokémon she mistreated.

### **Chapter ?: Imprisoned**

Nyx awakens ages later, chained up in a large cage. She hears a trumpet playing loudly and sees Rino playing it, groaning in annoyance. Rino sees Nyx awake and stops to taunt her about her current situation. Angered, Nyx swears to have her revenge once she gets her strength and subjects back, but Rino responds that the Horde has disbanded, shocking the former queen. Rino adds that Nyx is wearing chains strong enough to inhibit her movement. Nyx asks where she is, and Rino says she's living in her family's house from now on. Horrified, Nyx spits that she will not be anyone's house pet, but Rino says she will be Ahsoka's pet, as it's the perfect punishment for someone like Nyx. Rino tosses a few more taunts at Nyx, then resumes playing the trumpet loudly enough to annoy her. Nyx turns her head away and covers her ears as the music resumes, then watches as Rino, still playing, finally walks away.

## **Personality**

Malevolent, eccentric, ruthless, maniacal, entitled, bossy, selfish, power-hungry, and usually won't take no for an answer. Nyx is also quite ambitious in her plans and is willing to anything and everything she can to get what she wants; in other words, there is no line she won't cross in order to achieve her goals. She enjoys causing chaos and taking things, especially money, treasures, and people's lives and hope. She is a master manipulator who loves torturing her victims, both physically and psychologically. She refuses to tolerate insubordination from her subjects, harshly punishing those who disobey her orders and demanding complete, blind loyalty from them. Due to the nature of her species, Nyx is also very vengeful against those who thwart her plans and will seek to eliminate them. She also tends to be lazy, letting her subordinates do most of her dirty work, but she'll make exceptions if the situation is significant enough. She is vain and a social Darwinist, viewing everyone else as inferior. She holds no regard for others' well-being, even her subjects, and will turn her back on them without hesitation, even if they've been her closest allies. She pays attention to detail and is very adaptable, patient, intelligent, cunning, organized, and calculating, allowing her to be an excellent tactician and exploit others' weaknesses to her advantage. However, she is also very arrogant; as a powerful Legendary Pokémon with two type immunities and the ability to drain the life out of other organisms, she has let her power go to her head, clouding her judgment. This ultimately proves to be her undoing. She later reforms to become a better person as she begins to face and understand the consequences of her actions.
