Hey /vp/ I'm the guy that claimed that Honedge is based on Durendal, the French holy sword. I'm reading an Italian novel written by Italo Calvino, "Il Cavaliere Inesistente", litterally "The Non-Existent Knight". It's a story about Agilulfo, a knight, fighting the battle of the Franks, in the French army under the reign of Charlemagne (along with Roland, the owner of Durendal). This knight hasn't a body, it's just an armor moving with the willpower. In a nutshell, he's a ghost. I bet that Honedge's evolution will be based on Agilulfo, the Non-Existing Knight, an haunted armor (with the sword still being the pokémon, controlling the void armor).
