Literature Text
Luxio (the Spark Pokémon) is an uncommon Electric-type Pokémon found among grassy plains and savannahs within the Sinnoh and Galar regions as well as the Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Unova, Alola, Hisui, Paldea and Kitakami regions on rare occasions. While they might not look very dangerous from afar, Luxio are powerful beasts that can easily knock out smaller opponents and humans alike with the electrified claws and teamwork abilities. If you ever have to fight one of these creatures, make sure to stay far away from them and try to keep more than one out of the fight; otherwise, the chances of a light attack turning into something serious can become quite severe!
While most Electric-types are able to generate electricity either by taking electrons from the air or by simply generating it manually within specialized organs, the members of the Shinx family are the only ones known that actually utilize their own muscle systems to generate electricity. On the legs of these creatures are special bands of muscle that are exceptionally responsive to electrical activity, which are clearly marked by differences in fur color. While most muscles build up lactic acid and a number of compounds as they are operated, these special muscles convert these compounds into a thick electrolyte solution that in turn allows Shinx to utilize their own biological energy to induce an electrical current; when applied in practice, this enables Shinx and their evolutions to utilize physical Electric-type attacks fairly efficiently without tiring themselves or losing much energy in the process, with excited trembling being a clear sign of their forms being super-charged with electrical energy. Unfortunately, because this is all based entirely on their muscle system, the special attributes of the family are fairly lacking in terms of power, limiting them mainly to close-quarters combat; this seems to work just fine for them, however, as the members of the Shinx family are particularly adapted for physical combat and possess comparatively weaker special abilities.
Luxio are considerably more direct in battle than Shinx and are able to attack with surprising vigor despite the fact they don't learn any new Electric-type attacks beyond Spark until after they evolve. In the meantime, Luxio have more than a few tricks up their fur to ensure they don't go down easily in battle. For one thing, Luxio always travel in small groups in the wild to ensure that their otherwise limited Electric-type attacks don't discourage them from successful hunts nor make them seem weak to attackers; this is further helped by the fact that they tend to be very gracious towards other members of their group, gladly sharing amongst each other the spoils of any hunt. Secondly, Luxio possess a deadly weapon in their front paws that is always deployed as they prepare for battle and makes them a noticeable threat against anything but Ground-type opponents: electrified claws. In the case of Luxio, the muscle system responsible for generating their electricity is also connected directly to their claws, which are similar in construction to their fur and are designed to be able to carry and contain electricity without being damaged. What makes this a problem, however, is that their claws can act like modified transformers, and while they can put out 1,000,000 volts of electricity, they can also effectively exchange their otherwise high-voltage electricity for a lower voltage and higher amperage. This is because their electrical claws are designed for killing prey in the wild and are only moderately toned down in regular combat; as such, it only takes a light scratch from one of these creatures to electrocute a human to the point of fainting. It is noted, though, that this same electricity is also used by Luxio to generate weak electric pulses that can be understood by other Electric-type Pokémon when their paws are placed on their backs. Thirdly and lastly, Luxio possess a similar electrical conduit within their tails that enables them to actually transfer charge to one another by wrapping their tails together; this can further allow themselves to convert their separate bodies into a single electrical dynamo that can heighten the power of their Electric-type attacks for some time, in turn making them a significant threat when in numbers.
While they might not contain much in the way of versatility when it comes to Electric-type abilities, Luxio are vicious creatures that can certainly leave more than a mark against most opponents in battle. It might be difficult for some trainers to make it a long time with only a Spark and Bite attack to rely on for decent offense, but for those willing to persevere, the reward is definitely worth it in the end. Of course, that doesn't mean that you should just hope for evolution to come quickly; after all, it's not every day you find a beast that can knock out most opponents simply by clawing them!

Do you think these guys can still thrive in colder heights nowadays, like they usually do back in Hisui? These cats are seen on both the lowest and highest areas of Coronet Highlands (not including the snowed-up summit zone of Mount Coronet).
