Should the Mox Lotus be mentioned as an additional moxen? The card was made, even if it's a joke that's not legal in any format. --70.190.71.44 06:24, 2 February 2011 (EST)

This is demonstrably false. Wizards has made exactly one product with the word "Mox" pluralized on it. They were necklace versions of the original Unlimited Moxes. Here is a picture of the box they came in:

Note that they pluralize the word "Mox" as "Moxes". Note that on their site, some people mistakenly use "Moxen", while many other Wizards employees and writers use "Moxes". Relying on one or two employees who have written "Moxen" is not a citation, whereas actual products that use "Moxes" on the packaging is.

Finally, there is only one word that ends with "ox" that gets pluralized with an "en" suffix, and that is the word "ox". All other "ox" ending words are pluralized with an "es".

Fox -> Foxes Box -> Boxes Pox -> Poxes Lox -> Loxes Vox -> Voces Cox -> Coxes

Ox -> Oxen

The word "Mox" is pluralized "Moxes", not "Moxen". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.89.72.149 (talkcontribs).

On the other hand: Moxen is used since the beginning of the game. and still on the site http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/arcana/alternate-moxen-2010-05-10 http://magic.wizards.com/en/search/site/moxen?f.
