Description: An anthropomorphic fox, Braixen is the first evolution of the Fire starter in the Kalos region. Braixen stand on two legs that are covered in black fur. The fur around its torso is yellow and flares out at the hips, resembling a skirt. It has a collar of white fur which extends down its arms. The tufts of orange fur it had in its ears as Fennekin have grown out even longer, stretching out past the line of its skirt. Its tail has also grown considerably and has a stick peeking out of the top.
When ready to attack, Braixen will whip the stick out of its bushy tail, the friction easily lighting the stick on fire. Braixen are also known to use this flaming stick for communication. Combining the flame from its stick with its fiery breath, Braixen can create whirlwinds of flames for taking down its enemies.
