Malva's Delphox (Japanese: パキラのマフォクシー Pachira's Mahoxy) is a Pokémon that Malva owns in the Pokémon Adventures manga.

History

As a Fennekin

Braixen was originally a starter Pokémon owned by Professor Sycamore. Braixen was first seen as a Fennekin in An X-cuse to Come Out and Play, where it was given to Trevor alongside a Chespin and Froakie in the hopes that X would pick one and leave his house and go on a journey. His attempt was interrupted by the appearance of the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas and Yveltal, which appeared in Vaniville Town and caused destruction as they fought each other. Although Trevor and his friends escaped, the case with Fennekin's Poké Ball and Pokédex was lost during the chaos.

The case containing Fennekin's Poké Ball and Pokédex were taken to the Team Flare Secret HQ, along with other Poké Balls taken from Vaniville Town. When Malva returned to active duty as a member of Team Flare in Dancing Vivillon, she dug through the collected Poké Balls and found the case with Fennekin inside, deciding to take it for herself while smashing the unneeded Pokédex under her shoe. Later, Malva informs Celosia about Team Flare's plan to retrieve the dormant tree form of Xerneas in order to power the ultimate weapon. After both sides separated to begin the operation, it was released out of its Poké Ball, revealing that it had evolved into a Braixen at some point.

As a Braixen

In Changing Gengar, the battle for the dormant Xerneas went on, and Malva and Braixen were seen observing from the trees as Celosia and Essentia fought against X and his friends in order to stop them from interfering with the operation to take Xerneas. When Korrina, Gurkinn, and Diantha appeared to help, Malva decides to step in to fight as well and beckons Braixen to join. Malva chooses Diantha as her opponent and has Braixen use Magic Room to surround them both in a giant sphere that isolates them from the outside. Malva notes that her plan was to use Magic Room to try and prevent Diantha's Gardevoir from using Mega Evolution, only to find that move has no effect on Mega Stones. Despite this, Malva continues to order Braixen to furiously attack and trap the Kalos Champion. As they battle, the Magic Room begins to sink into the ground. Y and Shauna attempt to stop this, but are unable to break open the Magic Room barrier before it fully disappears.

Later, Braixen is seen with Malva watching Lysandre train in the Pokémon Village.

At Route 10, it is revealed to have evolved into a Delphox. There, it oversees a group of Team Flare Admins and Grunts tying captured Pokémon to the prototype Absorbers that line the area. When it passes by Shauna's Furfrou, the Poodle Pokémon recognizes it from the Vaniville Town incident and calls out to it, only to be ignored. After the Pokémon are put on the Absorbers, their life energy is drained to power the ultimate weapon. The Admins are horrified by this event, but note that Delphox is completely unfazed, which reminded them of Malva. Soon after, Delphox notices that intruders have arrived in the area and pulls out its branch to begin attacking. However, as soon as the branch is lit, the flames react to a Vivillon's Powder, causing a gigantic explosion. The intruders then appear, revealing themselves to be Viola, Alexa, Clemont, Bonnie, and Yvette.
