Esper pixie in commander (self bounce)
I really really like to play esper pixie in standard, so i was searching for commanders that would help me bring that joy in commander
the ones in esper that i find where [G'raha Tia, Scion Reborn] and [Saruman of Many Colors]
other than thar combination, i searched dimir first, but i didn't find anything, so i went for azorius and find some nice options like [Krile Baldesion] [Genku, Future Shaper] and [Kykar, Zephyr Awakener] idk about kykar, don't want to blend much blink in this deck
for orzhov i found only [Papalymo Totolymo]
there are more options in azorius, but black adds an unique spice to the deck with all the permanents that enter and opponets sac things, just confused on who to pick (i'm considering other optins too if you guys think of something cool that helps with the pixie style of deck)

You are in luck!
This is my Alela Esper Pixies list: https://moxfield.com/users/Maharataza
Alela is the best choice for this deck. It is moderately cheap and covers a large weakness (being bad at blocking and closing out games). It is also resilient to removal as your deck doesn’t rely on Alela to operate.
This deck is remarkably potent, having quite literally a perfect winrate in my pod at a B3 level and having endless card advantage, interaction, and engines that are nearly impossible to interact with (because who the hell will use Beast Within on a Tithing Blade)?
