Origin
Besides being based off a fennik fox, the whole line also takes inspiration from a witch or mage, which hopefully will become more clear in it's final evolution. CoolDudeAl (talk) 01:25, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
To add to this it appears to use its stick as a wand Vienna Waltz (talk) 14:13, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
Braixen is based on a Fennec fox. It uses a stick like a wand in some of its attacks, and its tail has the appearance of a broom when the stick is placed on it, alluding to traits commonly associated with Witches.
That should definitely suffice for now for its origin. Frushil! (talk) 19:09, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
Name meaning
Braixen seems to be based on braise (French for live coals) and vixen. Kikiyume (talk) 13:59, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
