The main components that are constant for all four formes are a dominant reddish orange color, a bluish-green face, and three bluish-green dots on its back arranged in a triangle. Typically, there is a purple stripe running down the center of its face and a purple, crystalline organ in its chest. Its white, circular eyes are set inside rectangular, black eye sockets. It is shown [[M07|in the anime]], that Deoxys may have a green crystalline organ and facial stripe. | ||
In its Normal Forme, Deoxys has tapering legs with a segmented, vertical, blue stripe on the upper portion. The abdomen is black with vertical lines, while the majority of its skin is reddish-orange. The arms are capable of taking different forms, usually a pair of tentacles coiled in a double helix. One tentacle is the primarily skin color, while the other is light blue. Alternately, it can form more humanoid arms with a red top and blue underside and a five-fingered hand. This forme has a blunt protrusion with a single blue stripe on either side of its head and stubby tail. | In its Normal Forme, Deoxys has tapering legs with a segmented, vertical, blue stripe on the upper portion.

The Speed Forme of this Pokémon has a sleek black body with thin striation. The reddish-orange skin now covers only its head, hip joints, and the area around its crystal. There is now only one tentacle on each side of its body, one red and one blue. The protrusions on its head now point upward and the back of its head now forms a long spike. There is a long, thick blue stripe running down the center of this longer protrusion. More blue stripes appear on either hip joint and on its legs. | The Speed Forme of this Pokémon has a sleek black body with thin striation.

Deoxys was formed by the mutation of a virus from space. The Pokémon is highly intelligent; its brain appears to be the crystal in its chest. This organ is capable of firing laser beams. Additionally, Deoxys can use psychokinetic powers, which are useful for its [[signature move]] {{m|Psycho Boost}}. As shown [[M07|in the anime]], it is able to regenerate any part of its body that it may have lost during a battle. It has also demonstrated the ability to create an aurora without changing its forme. These auroras can have different wavelengths and are used to communicate with other Deoxys. This Pokémon came from {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon|outer space from inside of a meteor.}} | Deoxys was formed by the mutation of a virus from space.

It is also shown that the various electromagnetic waves given off by people, Pokémon, and all electronics can obscure its vision if there is enough interference with its communication.

In the anime and manga, Deoxys has been observed to create clones of itself. These clones have lifeless eyes and duller color, lack of the trademark crystal on the chest, and seem to be unable to change from the Normal Forme. Furthermore, they seem unable to morph their tentacles into hands. When these clones are defeated, they dissolve into dust-like particles. | In the anime and manga, Deoxys has been observed to create clones of itself.

Deoxys plays a large part in a [[DPAS1|special chapter]] of volume 3 in the series. [[Hareta]] and [[Mitsumi]] come upon a large meteorite in [[Veilstone City]]. Mitsumi proceeds to tell him that there is a Pokémon that comes from a meteorite. He tells her that he's met Deoxys. She freaks out and doesn't believe him, so he tells the story of how he met Deoxys. Hareta is seen jumping around the forest until he starts riding a {{p|Drifloon}}. A {{p|Murkrow}} flies toward them and pecks the Drifloon, causing it to explode. Hareta is seen plummeting to the ground, and then bouncing off a {{p|Bibarel}}'s stomach. He lays down on the ground with the Bibarel as a pillow, when the Bibarel starts getting worried, because it sees the meteorite containing Deoxys zooming to the ground. The Bibarel tries to tell Hareta what's happening, and he looks up and wonders what it is. The Pokémon and Hareta try to get away as the meteorite crashes down. Deoxys emerges from the meteor, and Hareta thinks it might be a Pokémon. Meanwhile, [[Mars]] and some grunts see the crash, and begin to battle it, but to no avail. | Deoxys plays a large part in a [[DPAS1|special chapter]] of volume 3 in the series.

Deoxys (Japanese: デオキシス Deoxys) is a Psychic-type Mythical Pokémon.
While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, it has three other Formes. In Generation III, its Forme depends on which game cartridge it is on and cannot be changed without trading.
- Normal Forme is the default in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire and Pokémon Colosseum and XD.
- Attack Forme is the default in Pokémon FireRed.
- Defense Forme is the default in Pokémon LeafGreen.
- Speed Forme is the default in Pokémon Emerald.
In later generations, its Forme can be changed at will in Veilstone City, Kanto Route 3, Nacrene City, Ambrette Town, or Fallarbor Town.
Biology
Deoxys is an alien-like bipedal Pokémon that has four formes, each focused on a different stat. The main components that are constant for all four formes are a dominant reddish orange color, a bluish-green face, and three bluish-green dots on its back arranged in a triangle. Typically, there is a purple stripe running down the center of its face and a purple, crystalline organ in its chest. Its white, circular eyes are set inside rectangular, black eye sockets. It is shown in the anime, that Deoxys may have a green crystalline organ and facial stripe.
In its Normal Forme, Deoxys has tapering legs with a segmented, vertical, blue stripe on the upper portion. The abdomen is black with vertical lines, while the majority of its skin is reddish-orange. The arms are capable of taking different forms, usually a pair of tentacles coiled in a double helix. One tentacle is the primarily skin color, while the other is light blue. Alternately, it can form more humanoid arms with a red top and blue underside and a five-fingered hand. This forme has a blunt protrusion with a single blue stripe on either side of its head and stubby tail.
While in its Attack Forme, its legs remain tapered. However, its blue stripes are no longer segmented and run the entire length of the leg and there is now a large spike on the knee. Two pairs of whip-like tentacles with pointed tips, one reddish-orange and one blue, replace its previous coiled, blunted tentacles. The protrusion on its head are now triangular with an additional one extending for the top of its head. Most of its reddish-orange skin has receded, revealing a striated, black chest and abdomen. Finally, its tail is now longer and more pointed.
Deoxys's Defense Forme has bulky, wide legs that are somewhat flat at the end with a bluish-green spot on each knee. It retains its two pairs of red and blue tentacles, but they are now flat and broad. The head has fused with its body and all protrusion are gone, causing it to resemble a helmet. The reddish-orange skin now covers the entire body, so none of its inner black portion is visible. There is now a single blue stripe on each shoulder, and its tail has disappeared.
The Speed Forme of this Pokémon has a sleek black body with thin striation. The reddish-orange skin now covers only its head, hip joints, and the area around its crystal. There is now only one tentacle on each side of its body, one red and one blue. The protrusions on its head now point upward and the back of its head now forms a long spike. There is a long, thick blue stripe running down the center of this longer protrusion. More blue stripes appear on either hip joint and on its legs.
Deoxys was formed by the mutation of a virus from space. The Pokémon is highly intelligent; its brain appears to be the crystal in its chest. This organ is capable of firing laser beams. Additionally, Deoxys can use psychokinetic powers, which are useful for its signature move Psycho Boost. As shown in the anime, it is able to regenerate any part of its body that it may have lost during a battle. It has also demonstrated the ability to create an aurora without changing its forme. These auroras can have different electromagnetic wavelengths and are used to communicate with other Deoxys. It is also shown that the various electromagnetic waves given off by people, Pokémon, and all electronics can obscure its vision if there is enough interference with its communication. This Pokémon came from outer space from inside of a meteor.
In the anime and manga, Deoxys has been observed to create clones of itself. These clones have lifeless eyes and duller color, lack of the trademark crystal on the chest, and seem to be unable to change from the Normal Forme. Furthermore, they seem unable to morph their tentacles into hands. When these clones are defeated, they dissolve into dust-like particles.
In the anime
Major appearances
Currently, six different Deoxys have been seen in the anime.
Deoxys (M07)
Deoxys first appeared in Destiny Deoxys. One with a green crystalline organ fell to earth in a meteorite. A second Deoxys (with a purple crystalline organ) came to LaRousse City to search for it but ended up in an epic battle with Rayquaza. As Pokémon Emerald had not been released when the movie was produced, only its Defense, Normal and Attack Formes appeared.
Other
Deoxys's Speed Forme debuted in the special episode Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys Crisis!.
A Deoxys appeared in Cheers on Castaways Isle! in all of its Formes.
Deoxys appeared in PK21, in which it saved Ash's Pikachu, Dawn's Piplup, and a wild Skitty.
Minor appearances
A Deoxys had a cameo appearance at the beginning of Zoroark: Master of Illusions.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
- Main article: Deoxys (Adventures)
Two Deoxys play major roles in the events of the FireRed & LeafGreen arc, referred to as Organism No.1 and Organism No. 2.
In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga
Deoxys plays a large part in a special chapter of volume 3 in the series. Hareta and Mitsumi come upon a large meteorite in Veilstone City. Mitsumi proceeds to tell him that there is a Pokémon that comes from a meteorite. He tells her that he's met Deoxys. She freaks out and doesn't believe him, so he tells the story of how he met Deoxys. Hareta is seen jumping around the forest until he starts riding a Drifloon. A Murkrow flies toward them and pecks the Drifloon, causing it to explode. Hareta is seen plummeting to the ground, and then bouncing off a Bibarel's stomach. He lays down on the ground with the Bibarel as a pillow, when the Bibarel starts getting worried, because it sees the meteorite containing Deoxys zooming to the ground. The Bibarel tries to tell Hareta what's happening, and he looks up and wonders what it is. The Pokémon and Hareta try to get away as the meteorite crashes down. Deoxys emerges from the meteor, and Hareta thinks it might be a Pokémon. Meanwhile, Mars and some grunts see the crash, and begin to battle it, but to no avail.
Professor Rowan shows up, a little worried that something might have happened to Hareta. He asks Rowan what happened to "that weird Pokémon". They then see Deoxys, and Rowan is shocked to see such a rare Pokémon. It transforms to Attack Forme and fires off a Psycho Boost at Hareta and Rowan. Rowan tells Hareta not to make it any angrier, but instead he jumps on top of Deoxys and asks what's wrong. It flings him off, then tries to fire another Psycho Boost at him, but he jumps around it, evading it completely. He jumps on it again, but it transforms to Speed Forme while he is still on it. It starts flying around the forest with Hareta, while he asks Deoxys what's wrong once more. It tells him what's wrong, but it throws him off itself. Then he battles Deoxys with his friends from the forest. Onix tries to Headbutt it, but it misses. It transforms to Defense Forme, and then Hareta jumps on Deoxys and covers its eyes. Then he tells a bunch of Kricketune to have a "super bug concert". Rowan compliments him on the super-effectiveness of the attack, then it transforms back to Normal Forme. It becomes calmer, but transforms to Attack Forme and fires off another Psycho Boost, this time hitting a Drifloon. It explodes, defeating Deoxys. Deoxys is totally calm now, and it merges its tentacles to create a hand, and it shakes hands with Hareta. Hareta finishes telling the story to Mitsumi, and tells her that it wanted to find out more about this planet.
In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga
A Deoxys made it debut in A Visitor From Outer Space?! where it was first mentioned by Professor Oak while having Red obtain an orb that contains it. As Red got the orb, he competed with a guy and his Swampert in which Swampert's owner ended up swiping the orb for a Voltorb. Deoxys appeared in Clefairy's flashback in the same chapter where it was fighting the Swampert.
Kazuki owns a Deoxys in Learning a Special Move!! where it appeared in all of its formes.
In the W Mission Story: Pokémon Ranger - the Comic manga
Deoxys is the target of a mission that Lunick and Solana are assigned as Spenser, Joel, and Elita were beaten by the Pokémon.

Trivia
- The Speed Forme of Deoxys has the highest Speed base stat of any Pokémon.
- The Defense Forme of Deoxys has the highest Defense and Special Defense base stats of any Psychic-type Pokémon.
- Deoxys's Attack Forme has the lowest Special Defense base stat of all Pokémon, on par with Magikarp, Carvanha, Igglybuff, Caterpie and Weedle.
- Its Attack Forme has both of the lowest individual base stats of any Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, those two being Defense and Special Defense, each with a base stat of 20.
- Tied with Diancie, Deoxys has the lowest HP base stat of all Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, with 50 base HP in all four forms.
- Deoxys is the only Pokémon whose forme change is triggered by different events between generations.
- When recruited in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team Deoxys will be in its Normal Forme when playing in the overworld; however, when exploring a dungeon, Deoxys's forme will be randomly selected each time the player progresses to a new floor.
- In Pokémon Ranger, Deoxys's forme changes every time its Browser entry is accessed. It cycles in order from Normal Forme to Attack Forme to Defense Forme to Speed Forme and finally back to Normal Forme.
- In the anime and in Pokémon Ranger, Deoxys is able to change to any of its forms at will regardless of where it is. While it can willingly change in the Pokémon Adventures manga, its choices are limited by the environment.
- Due to the cause of Forme change in Generation III being the game Deoxys is in, only Speed Forme Deoxys is banned from the Battle Frontier, as only Speed Forme Deoxys is obtainable in Emerald.
- In the games, the Sevii Islands and Orre* are the only regions where all four Formes have not been available.
- Deoxys was the first Pokémon to have its own unique battle music.
- Using the first letter from the names of three of Deoxys's formes, one can spell "DNA" (Defense, Normal, Attack). The letter "s" at the ending of Deoxys's name could stand for Speed.
- Before Generation V, Deoxys was the only Pokémon whose stats were recalculated (to apply gained effort points to its stats) immediately after a battle. Other Pokémon had to level up, use the box trick, or be fed a vitamin or stat-reducing Berry in order to have the effort values applied to their stats.
- While in the wild, or while looking at a Deoxys belonging to another player (e.g. while trading), it will appear in its Normal Forme.
- Deoxys was designed by Hironobu Yoshida.[1]
- Deoxys is the only Mythical Pokémon to become available in a core series game without an event.
- Consequently, Deoxys is the only Pokémon at the end of a generation (in National Pokédex order) that isn't event-exclusive.
- Contrary to its classification in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, PokémonCenter.com calls Deoxys a Legendary Pokémon rather than a Mythical Pokémon.
Origin
Deoxys appears to draw inspiration from certain representations of aliens and visual representations of the DNA double helix. It may also be more loosely based on viruses and mutation.
Name origin
Deoxys is an abbreviation of deoxyribonucleic acid—or DNA—the medium of genetic code in many cellular organisms. It was mentioned in the 7th movie that Professor Lund gave it the name Deoxys.
