Wasn't feeling it at first and I still want to work on the design, but here's a Fakemon idea. It's a pretty metal bird, but it'd be really cool to see.
Living in a Savannah-like environment, these stork-like birds fly extremely low to the ground, slashing at the legs of larger prey (such as Tauros), or simply plucking at prey such as Ekans safely out of reach with their long legs. The females are typically smaller in size, but feature more prominent colors in their eye lining and plumage as well as sharper spikes/thorns. Especially those surrounding their legs, which they sometimes use to fight over desired male partners if their beauty fails to win him over. They are monogamous and will have up to three eggs at a time, two of which will hatch, and only one of which typically lives to adulthood. Though they are known for actively hunting their prey, their strong stomachs allow for them to take on rotting meat in times of desperation. Predators also have difficulty sneaking up on the females, as their courtship feathers also act as extremely dense and tough quills made of a steel-like material
Possible typings: Steel/Flying, Dark/Flying, or Dark/Steel
