Ask Espeon

“It just...started one day until most of my order was infected. Only myself and our elder escaped unscathed and he sent me to try and learn what it is and how to stop it while they try to contain it to the center of Ilex Forest.”

The Pikachu would blink, pulling out the sword from behind him.

“This thing? Would you believe... I made it?”

The Pikachu would grin, placing it back on his back before clearing his throat.

“Specifically, I sort of formed it. I’m a Delta Species Pikachu, so my type’s steel type. And, I can make stuff if I focus on it for several hours at a time, and sort of create it from ambient energy. Once it’s formed, though, It’s fully metal!”

He’d nod, then look back to the Hoopa, eyes sparkling.

“You see, I can also create other items, but those can take more energy since I’m not used to crafting them, and they’d only ever be made of pure steel so I can’t like make food or something and...”

Oh dear, he’s gotten started. Looks like you might be here a while, though he might not notice if you back away.

“Hey, does it feel like we’re being watched?”

“Huh?”
