Braal

Braal (pronounced "brawl") is a Fighting-Type baby Pokémon.

It evolves into one of three different Pokemon starting at Level 20:
 * Red Braal evolve into Throh.
 * Blue Braal evolve into Sawk.
 * Black Brawl evolve into Swiep.

Breeding any of the evolutions while they hold a Battle Incense produces a Braal Egg.

Physiology
Braal is a bipedal, humanoid Pokemon with rocky skin. Three tribes of Braal exist of different colors: Red, Blue, and Black. There is little difference between them besides color: All three have black eyes, no hair, three digits on their hands and feet, and clothing that resembles a partly-torn shirt and pants, a black bandage visible where their nose would be and a scar on their left cheek. Their clothing is tinged slightly toward the color of their skin.

Special abilities
Braal has some strength for a small Pokemon, but its fighting style is very rough and ineffective. To make up for this, they often dogpile their opponent in a group. If a Braal hones its fighting style through diligence, it can evolve.

Behavior
Braal are immature yet social Pokemon that live in groups, either with their three different tribes or with other Pokemon. They prefer living with other Fighting-Types to battle whenever they feel like it. Solitary Braal are often stricken with separation anxiety.

Habitat
Braal are capable of living in any environment, and if one tribe lives somewhere, the other two are likely to be there as well.

In side games
This Pokémon has yet to appear in any side games.

Held items
None.

Trivia

 * Braal and its third evolution, Swiep, were created to connect Throh and Sawk as an intentional parallel to the introduction of Tyrogue and Hitmontop in Generation II.

Origin
Braal's appearance takes inspiration from street fighting, due to its unprofessional clothing and unrefined fighting style. Like its three evolutions, it is also based on oni.

Name origin
Braal's name is a misspelling of "brawl". Its Japanese name, "Kogeki", can mean "attack", while also containing the syllable "ko", which can mean "child".
