In the episode, Cresselia helped {{Ash}} and the residents of [[Canalave City]] get better sleep by stopping Darkrai. | |||

Cresselia (Japanese: クレセリア Crecelia) is a Psychic-type Legendary Pokémon.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
It is a member of the Lunar duo with Darkrai.
Biology
Cresselia has a blue, swan-like body with a yellow underside. It has pink eyes, a dark pink, round tuft on its head, and a pointed, beak-like snout. There are yellow, crescent-shaped ornaments on the sides of its head. Cresselia has glowing, pink, ring-like wings on its sides and back with paw like protrusions resting on its chest. These wings release shining particles and undulate beautifully around the quarter moon. Cresselia has the power to dispel nightmares, and holding one of its feathers is said to bring happy dreams. However, as seen in the anime, it can be quite hostile towards its counterpart, Darkrai. Cresselia is the only known Pokémon able to learn Lunar Dance. Cresselia is a female-only species.
In the anime
Major appearances
Cresselia made its debut appearance in the anime in Sleepless In Pre-Battle!. Cresselia normally returns to its shrine on Fullmoon Island during a certain time of the year when a Darkrai also comes by to cause nightmares. It may also leave its feathers, which people find to help stop the nightmares caused by Darkrai. In the episode, Cresselia helped Ash and the residents of Canalave City get better sleep by stopping Darkrai.
Minor appearances

Trivia
- When Cresselia is encountered, the music is the same as an ordinary wild Pokémon, instead of a Legendary Pokémon theme. She shares this trait with Shaymin, Latias, and Latios.
- Cresselia can be seen as an opposite of Darkrai, as Darkrai causes nightmares, whereas Cresselia prevents them. Also, their islands are shaped and named opposite of each other, and their types are frequently considered opposites.
- Furthermore, in the TCG, one of the attacks on Darkrai 3/106 of Great Encounters, Darkness Pursuit, has a base damage of 100 if Cresselia is the opposing Pokémon. Otherwise, it deals 50 damage.
- Cresselia is one of six Legendary Pokémon that has a definite gender, the other five being Latias (a female-only species), Latios (a male-only species) and the Forces of Nature (whose members are all male-only species).
- All of these Legendary Pokémon except Landorus appeared roaming around the region they debuted in.
- Tower Tycoon Palmer, Cheryl, and Buck all own a Cresselia; they use these at the Battle Tower.
- Cresselia's three main colors (pink, yellow and blue) are the same as the main colors of the Lake guardians.
- Prior to Generation VI, Cresselia's body style was .
Origin
Cresselia's form seems to be based on a swan. Considering its crescent moon motif and the aurora-colored planetary rings around its body, it may originate from the constellation Cygnus. Cresselia shares characteristics with Sarimanok, a legendary fowl with a profusely decorated head, feathered tail, and colorful wings that is said to be a symbol of good fortune.
Name origin
Cresselia and Crecelia may be a combination of crescent (referring to the lunar phase) and Selene (Greek goddess of the Moon).
