- Mesprit is, as of Generation IV, one of the three lightest legendary Pokémon, tied with the other members of its trio. It is also, tied with the other members of its trio, the second lightest of all Pokémon, after Gastly and Haunter.
- Mesprit is somewhat unique among the members of its trio, as it leaves Lake Verity to roam Sinnoh after being found. This is somewhat similar to how Suicune was treated in Crystal Version, leading some to believe that Mesprit will be the version mascot of the third game of Generation IV. This could also be a hint for remakes of Pokémon Gold and Silver.
- Mesprit is referred to as a female in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2.
Origin
Mesprit is based after a spirit or a sprite and the color magenta. Mesprit and the rest of the trio could possibly have originated from the Imperial Regalia of Japan, which are also called the Three Sacred Treasures. Mesprit would be the Jewel of Benevolence.
Name origin
The English name comes from the personal pronoun "me" and esprit.The first part of its Japanese name comes from the Japanese verb 笑む emu, meaning to smile, and esprit.
