Bisharp is a bipedal, humanoid {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has a round, red and black head, similar to a war helmet, topped with a golden, double-headed axe blade with white edges. The helmet shrouds most of its yellow-and-black face, although its triangular eyes are visible. Resembling shoulder pads, Bisharp's red shoulders project slightly over its arms and have a thin yellow line where they meet its black torso. It has white, metallic hands that resemble gloves, with retractable, sharp blades attached. Encircling its torso are two blades, which create the impression of a ribcage. Its thighs are red and become progressively thinner as they connect to the knee. Both of its feet are metallic and split down the middle, resembling cloven hooves. These hooves are also similar to steel war boots or possibly leggings.

In the wild, Bisharp rules over a pack of Pawniard, and fights other Bisharp to become the alpha of the pack. The loser of these fights is cast out. It is notably pitiless, having no expression when finishing off prey, and is also said to use underhanded tactics during battles. When hunting, the Pawniard allow the leader Bisharp to perform the finishing blow. Once a Bisharp's head blade is chipped or damaged, it retires from its position as boss. Bisharp keeps a close eye on members of its pack to ensure none of the Pawniard think about betraying it, and absorbs defeated packs into its own tribe during territorial disputes. The Bisharp tribes are in turn spearheaded by {{p|Kingambit}}, which has been known to lead gangs of Bisharp into battle.<ref name=SVTrainersGuide>"[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/trainers-guide/complete-your-paldea-region-pokedex/ Complete Your Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Pokédex]." Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Trainer's Guide.</ref> It is said that only the most outstanding members of the Bisharp tribes can evolve into Kingambit. Bisharp typically lives near forested areas. It has violent conflicts with {{p|Fraxure}} over the locations of sharpening stones, and is preyed on by {{p|Tinkatuff}} for its metal.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Bisharp looks and acts similar to a traditional Japanese bandit—specifically a leader—with features resembling {{wp|samurai}} armor, while its behaviour and bipedal appearance are reminiscent of a {{wp|soldier}}. It may also originate from ''kaijin'', humanoid villains found in {{wp|kaiju|Japanese monster movies}}. Bisharp's design takes its inspirtion from insect as well as humans<ref>https://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream-6/</ref>, what might have come from the fact that {{wp|Japanese rhinoceros beetle}}s are called 甲虫 ''kabutomushi'' in Japanese, literally "{{wp|Kabuto}} insect", where Kabuto is a type samurai helmet.

According to art director [[Ken Sugimori]], Bisharp and Pawniard were created when the design team received orders for an urban Pokémon with a Dark/Steel typing, and that they are both designed to have humanoid and insectoid qualities.<ref name=ND204>''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 204, April 2011 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20110704155314/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-502.html Shellspider's blog (Japanese)], [http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream-6/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref> The insectoid elements may reference the fact that {{wp|Japanese rhinoceros beetle}}s are called 甲虫 ''kabutomushi'' in Japanese, literally "{{p|Kabuto}} insect", where Kabuto is a type of samurai helmet.


Just like its pre-evolved form, Bisharp may also draw some inspirations from a chess piece (in this case, a bishop). Akin to {{p|Pawniard}} evolving into Bisharp, a {{wp|pawn (chess)|pawn}} in chess can be {{wp|Promotion (chess)#Promotion to rook or bishop|promoted}} into a bishop piece (among other chess piece classes) if it reaches the opponent's side of the board.
