Skarmory. In classification terms, it's a Steel and Flying-type Pokémon - my world's equivalent to the animals you are familiar with.

[ it's then that skarmory readies a wing, and he straightens his back. ] Stay completely still. A cut from any of his feathers won't be easy to heal.

[ with careful precision, the bird steadies his wing and swipes at the bag. it appears to leave a sharp mark, but... no cut. needless to say, that surprises steven (and skarmory, who like almost offended) but this is CERES' doing. obviously it wouldn't be that easy. sigh. ]

How about that weapon you mentioned?
