The Adamant Orb and the Lustrous Orb appeared in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]''. Team Galactic attacked a police plane transporting the Adamant Orb from [[Eterna City]] to [[Celestic Town]], and stole the Adamant Orb. The [[Celestic Town Historical Research Center]] was studying the Lustrous Orb, and was having the Adamant Orb transported there to be studied as well. Upon receiving word that the Adamant Orb had been stolen, the Lustrous Orb was put under heavy police protection by [[Officer Jenny]] and her officers. [[Professor Carolina]], {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}}, {{an|Brock}}, [[Cynthia]], and [[Cyrus]] (who is regarded as a famous businessman) entered the room that contained the orb to examine it, but [[Mars]] set off explosives, after which the door to the orb room failed to reseal. Team Galactic burst in and engaged {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and [[Cynthia]] in battle. In the next episode, ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', Team Rocket successfully steal the Lustrous Orb while disguised as police officers. Both Ash and his friends and Team Galactic try to get the orb back, but Team Rocket escapes. After being found hiding in the [[Celestic Town|Celestic Ruins]], Ash, his friends, Team Galactic tried to get the orb back, only for Team Rocket to threaten to have [[James's Carnivine]] eat it. [[Jupiter]]'s {{p|Purugly}} jumped on Carnivine's head and took the Lustrous Orb from it. At this point, Team Galactic fled the scene. Back in the [[Galactic HQ]], the Lustrous and Adamant Orbs were shown to be connected to some kind of machinery. In the next episode, ''[[DP098|If the Scarf Fits, Wear It!]]'', a picture of the Lustrous Orb appeared in an article in the [[Sinnoh Star]] that {{an|Brock}} was reading.

Item details

In the anime

The Adamant Orb in the anime
The Lustrous Orb in the anime

The Adamant Orb debuted in A Secret Sphere of Influence!, in which Team Rocket was tasked by Team Galactic to steal it from the Eterna Historical Museum. Team Rocket successfully made the theft, but failed to get away with the orb.

The Adamant Orb and the Lustrous Orb appeared in Losing Its Lustrous!, where Team Galactic attacked a police plane transporting the Adamant Orb from Eterna City to Celestic Town and stole it. The Celestic Town Historical Research Center was studying the Lustrous Orb, and was having the Adamant Orb transported there to be studied as well. Upon receiving word that the Adamant Orb had been stolen, the Lustrous Orb was put under heavy police protection by Officer Jenny and her officers. Professor Carolina, Ash, Dawn, Brock, Cynthia, and Cyrus (who was regarded as a famous businessman) entered the room that contained the orb to examine it. However, after Mars set off some explosives outside of the building, the door to the orb room failed to reseal. While the group attempted to move the orb to another location, Team Galactic burst in and engaged Ash, his friends, and Cynthia in battle. In Double Team Turnover!, Team Rocket succeeded in stealing the Lustrous Orb while disguised as police officers. Ash, his friends, and Team Galactic tried to get the orb back, following Team Rocket to the Celestic Ruins. Cornered, Team Rocket threatened to have James's Carnivine eat the orb, but Mars's Purugly suddenly jumped on Carnivine's head and grabbed the Lustrous Orb, allowing Team Galactic to get away with it. Back in the Team Galactic HQ, the Lustrous and Adamant Orbs were shown being connected to some kind of machinery. In the next episode, If the Scarf Fits, Wear It!, a picture of the Lustrous Orb appeared in an article in the Sinnoh Star that Brock was reading.

In these episodes, Cyrus explained that he believes that the Adamant Orb is Dialga and that the Lustrous Orb is Palkia.

The two orbs made a brief appearance at the end of Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!, where Team Galactic was seen taking them to the Spear Pillar, along with the Red Chains. The orbs reappeared in The Battle Finale of Legend!, where Cyrus placed them and the lake guardians in place around the ruins at the Spear Pillar. This process allowed him to call forth Dialga and Palkia, who were immediately taken under his contol by the Red Chains. After Cyrus's attempt to create a new world had been foiled and Team Galactic had been defeated, Gary secured the orbs and decided to return them to Professor Carolina.

The Griseous Orb is the only one of the Pokémon of Myth orbs to not appear in the anime.

In the TCG

Both the Adamant Orb and Lustrous Orb are featured in the Pokémon Trading Card Game as held items on Dialga and Palkia cards respectively. These held items work in the same fashion as Poké-Bodies, in that the effect the item provides is active whenever the Pokémon is in play. The following is a list of cards including Pokémon of Myth orbs.
