Biology

Ceruledge's retracted blade

Ceruledge is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Its body is primarily black, though some regions on its head, arms, and legs are dark blue. From each side of its head, a sharp pale blue protrusion extends outward, giving the impression of ears; from the back of its head, a blue and purple fire burns upward, resembling the plume on a knight's helmet. Its eyes have pink irises and wisps emanating from its white pupils. A plate with three pink indentations on its center covers its face. Instead of hands, Ceruledge wields purple-cyan blades created from both fire and spectral energy—specifically, the lingering regrets of the fallen. These blades can grow into great swords in battle, increasing Ceruledge's power in the process.

Ceruledge's Evolution is triggered by the old set of purple and blue armor steeped in grudges, which it dons. The blades on its arms, which are made of fire and ghost energy, burn fiercely with the lingering resentment of a sword wielder who fell before they were able to accomplish their goal, and transform into swords to increase its power. Ceruledge is merciless and will do anything to win a battle, preferring close-quarters combat with a mix of sneak and surprise attacks. By using its quick speed to locate a foe's blind spots, it will then move closer before slashing them with its large swords. Any cuts from Ceruledge's swords will cause wounds that leak life energy, which the swords then absorb. It can gather the remaining regrets of the fallen and focus its bitter feelings towards the living world into a fiery slashing attack. Ceruledge is very loyal to its Trainer, pledging to protect and assist them. It is known to attack anyone who dares to show hostility towards its Trainer and will ruthlessly cut down the offender without a second thought. As seen in the Pokémon Horizons: The Series episode Liko and Amethio, Ceruledge's blades can emit heat even when retracted.

Ceruledge is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Bitter Blade.

Trivia

• Ceruledge and its evolutionary relatives were designed by Tomohiro Kitakaze.
• Ceruledge has the same base stat values as its counterpart Armarouge, but with their assignments reversed between HP and Speed, Attack and Special Attack, and Defense and Special Defense.

Origin

Ceruledge may be based on a possessed suit of armor. Its design could also be based on medieval heroic tales of European knights, specifically on the poem El Cantar de mio Cid. The poem relates the legend of the Spanish knight El Cid, known for wielding two famous swords, Tizona and Colada, and is said to have won his most important battle after death, which would explain Ceruledge's Ghost typing.

Name origin

Ceruledge may be a combination of cerulean (a shade of dark blue), cruel, and edge.

Soublades may be a combination of 蒼 sō (azure) or soul and blades. It may also involve blaze or レイス reisu (wraith).
