Serena's Delphox: Difference between revisions

In ''[[XY080|Performing with Fiery Charm!]]'', Braixen was used in the {{to|Dendemille}} Rookie Class Showcase. During the Theme Performance, she was seen helping Serena bake some Poké Puffs for [[Santo|the]] [[Gena|judging]] [[Delilah|panel]]. Afterwards, she was used in the Freestyle Performance, where she put on a show along with Pancham. Their performance was well received by the audience and, as a result, they got enough votes to put Serena ahead of her competitors. After that, they were declared the winners, earning Serena her first {{DL|Pokémon Showcase|Princess Key}}.

In ''[[XY085|Mending a Broken Spirit!]]'', Serena, Pancham, and Braixen began to think of a strategy on what they should do in their next Showcase. During their training, Braixen's branch broke after getting hit accidentally by Pancham's Stone Edge, devastating Braixen. When the others tried to get a new one, she turned them down as she felt her branch could never be replaced since she and Serena had promised to win the title of {{DL|Pokémon Performer|Kalos Queen}} with that branch. Upset, Braixen ran into the forest with Serena and Pancham chasing her. In the forest Serena encountered Braixen with a disguised [[James]], who made Serena realize why Braixen was so attached to her branch. Trying to find a way to fix Braixen's stick, they went to the Pokémon Center. There [[Nurse Joy]] informed them on a 'tree surgeon' named [[Woodward]]. Serena, Braixen, Pancham, and James then headed towards Woodward's work place.

In ''[[XY091|A Performance Pop Quiz!]]'', after Serena won the Theme Performance of the {{ci|Anistar}} Rookie Class Showcase, Braixen along with the others searched for {{TP|Serena|Eevee}}, who ran away in fright. After successfully finding the missing Eevee, Braixen performed along with Serena and Pancham in the Freestyle Performance. Serena and her Pokémon danced, inspired by Eevee, before Braixen finished their performance by launching a Fire Blast in the air. Having dazzled the audience with their moves, they received the most votes, successfully earning Serena her second Princess Key.

Braixen was sent out to battle [[Celosia]] and several {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s, alongside Ash's Pikachu and Frogadier, [[Clemont's Luxray]], and [[Sawyer's Grovyle]], to protect [[Squishy]] in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. She was later recalled when Serena, Clemont, and Bonnie fled with Squishy. In ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', Braixen used her stick to light the way through [[Terminus Cave]] alongside Clemont's searchlight while Luxray and {{AP|Noibat}} navigated with X-ray vision and ultrasound, respectively. She was later used to face Team Flare again, but the battle stopped when Squishy transformed to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|10% Form}} and defeated Team Flare's Pokémon.  

In ''[[XY109|Master Class Choices!]]'', Braixen was used in the {{ci|Fleurrh}} Rookie Class Showcase. She and Pancham participated in the Theme Performance, in which Performers had to place the highest number of {{p|Rhyhorn}} on their part of the field before time ran out, but they merely watched as the Rhyhorn came running by themselves to Serena's side. She danced alongside her teammates and ended the performance using Fire Blast combined with Sylveon's {{m|Swift}}, which formed a star briefly before exploding. After winning the Showcase, she and the others were congratulated by their friends with a feast.

After helping Serena to get the three Princess Keys needed to compete for the title of Kalos Queen, Braixen was used in the {{ci|Gloire}} Master Class Showcase in ''[[XY112|Master Class is in Session!]]''. During the first round, she was grouped with Miette's Slurpuff and [[Sara Lee]]'s {{p|Glaceon}}. Braixen used Flamethrower to create swirling flames around her and Serena, while the two danced. She then finished their performance with a star-shaped Fire Blast. Her performance was well received by the audience and she received the most votes, allowing Serena to advance to the next round. In [[XY113|the following episode]], she was used in the final round along with Pancham and Sylveon. After creating beautiful sparkles by combining her Flamethrower with Pancham's Dark Pulse and Sylveon's Swift, Braixen and Serena created a ring of fire using Braixen's branch. After being lifted up by Sylveon's {{m|Fairy Wind}}, Braixen, Pancham and Sylveon combined their moves once again to create a giant blooming fire flower. Their performance impressed the crowd. However, it was not enough to defeat the opposing team, formed by Aria, her Delphox, Aromatisse and {{p|Vivillon}}, causing Aria to keep her title of Kalos Queen.

===Personality and characteristics===

As a Fennekin, Delphox took after her Trainer in many ways, ever since they started journeying together. In ''[[XY005|A Blustery Santalune Gym Battle!]]'', she mimicked Serena when she stretched out. She takes pride in her appearance, and becomes upset when her fur or tail become mussed or dirty. In ''[[XY011|The Bamboozling Forest!]]'', she thanked {{AP|Froakie}} for cleaning her tail with the Frubbles on the {{type|Water}}'s back, and in ''[[XY021|A Pokévision of Things to Come!]]'', she hesitated to escape from {{TRT}} because of a large muddy puddle that blocked her path, only changing her mind after seeing her Trainer start to run across the puddle to her side. Her unwillingness to become dirty was seen again in ''[[XY022|Going for the Gold!]]'', when she fled from a Corsola's {{m|Water Gun}}.
