Archyena

I present you a new Fakemon for Pokémon Sacred Phoenix: Archyena, the Spectral Wolf and evolution of Mightyena.

Inspired by the Cwn Annwn, the Celtic wolf of the underworld, Archyena will inspire fear in its opponents.

Its from a suggestion of ArnikumPlus became a Reality . The artwork of this Fakemon was drawn by Blizzfeather and colored by eysselia .

On the same model as Linoone who won an evolution in Galar (Obstagoon), Mightyena is also rewarded with an Keltios evolution to make it viable in competition. Its final evolution ups from a Zero Used Tier to Rarely Used Tier.
Prized of evil cults, it evolves on Archyena from level 36 and if it has a fierce hate towards its trainer or if he took the lives of at least 20 Pokémons during battles.

The etymology of "Archyena" (same word on English and French) comes from Arch (highest) and Hyena.
