Description
In my Pokemon Scarlet game I decided to give all of the pokemon on my team names from Nahuatl (Aztec) as a sort of inside joke because Paldea is based on Portugal and Spain combined, and the Aztec Empire was conquered by the Spanish Conquistadors. So my Team are in a sense the Aztec Empire coming back to conquer the Iberian Peninsula. So I decided to draw member of my team dressed in Aztec inspired Outfits!

Metzi's name translates to "Moon"
Roaring Moon already gives me vaguely Mesoamerican vibes because of the Feathered addition to he wings. Bulbapedia says it's meant to represent feathered dinosaurs and it would not make sense to be Quetzalcoatl specifically being a Dark type. Quetzalcoatl was very explicitly associated with Light and Goodness, but there are other serpents than Just Quetzalcoatl and the Moon itself could be seen as Dark type in Aztec Mythology cause it was believed to be the severed head of a vengeful goddess who wants to consume the Sun and then destroy the Earth.
