Xurkitree (Japanese: デンジュモク Denjyumoku) is an Electric-type Ultra Beast introduced in Generation VII.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
It is code named UB-03 Lighting (Japanese: UB03 Lightning).
Biology
Xurkitree is a very tall Ultra Beast that resembles a vaguely humanoid mass of electrical wiring. Its "head" is a white, brightly glowing electric spark with numerous points and no visible face. Below its head is a mass of black cables for its torso and limbs; there are white bands resembling zip ties throughout its body as well. Its arms have ties where its shoulders, elbows, and wrists would be. The upper arms have two cables, while the lower have three. At the ends of its arms are copper structures that resemble hands, each with six flat "fingers". The legs have ties at the hips, knees, and ankles and are composed of four cables fused together for the whole length. The feet have four toes possessing "claws" of exposed copper; each foot has two fused toes pointing forward and two separate toes pointing backward. Finally, its tail has three ties and four cables, one of them loose in two sections. The tail ends in what resembles a three-pronged plug. It is the tallest Electric-type Pokémon.
Xurkitree live in another world named Ultra Plant. There, many have been seen unmoving, with their arms and legs stuck to the ground, similar to trees. Xurkitree vary greatly in size, from a little bigger than a human to the size of a mountain. Because this Ultra Beast reportedly raided a power plant, it is speculated to sustain itself with electricity. Witnesses claim that its entire body crackles with astonishing electrical power. Wicke from the Aether Foundation describes Xurkitree's capabilities as such:
Its most distinctive feature is an organ that can generate power. This UB’s bodily makeup is highly reminiscent of electric wiring, thus enabling it to conduct electricity with great efficiency.
It can discharge as much as a million volts of power at a time. When it begins to run out of power, it stabs its legs and tail into the soil, entering a treelike state as it absorbs electricity from the ground.
Wicke further claims that Xurkitree, like all Ultra Beasts, stores an energy within its body similar to the aura seen around Totem Pokémon.[1] This energy is called Z-Power. Xurkitree and Blacephalon have a rivalry with each other, often completing in contests to see who can shine the brightest as depicted in Twirling with a Bang!.

Trivia
- Xurkitree has the highest base Special Attack stat of all Electric-type Pokémon.
- In Pokémon Sun and Moon, Xurkitree is the only Ultra Beast with a single type.
- In Pokémon Sun and Moon, Xurkitree has a catch rate of 30 and a base experience yield of 114.
Origin
Xurkitree appears to be based on sparking electrical wires and power-lines. The three prongs on the end of its tail resemble a power plug, while its long "fingers" resemble copper wiring. Its design also shares some small aspects of a tree, especially Christmas trees; its head resembles a Moravian star or a tree-topper, while the white bands on its limbs may be based on fairy lights, though they could also refer to cable ties, which are used to hold multiple cables together.
The design of Xurkitree may also be based on a visual pun of the term "live wire"; as in "a wire carrying an electric current" and "a wire that is literally alive".
Name origin
Xurkitree may be a combination of a corruption of circuitry and tree.
Denjyumoku may be a combination of 電気 denki (electricity) or 電磁 denji (electromagnetism) and 樹木 jumoku (tree).
