Mesprit (Japanese: エムリット Emrit) is a Psychic-type legendary Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Mesprit is the second member of the Sinnoh region's Psychic-type legendary Pokémon trio.

Contents

Biology

Physiology

Mesprit is a small, gray, fairy-like Pokémon. It has two tails that each have a red jewel encrusted into them. These are, presumably, two of the jewels which complement the Red Chain. Mesprit has a partially magenta face with four long, drooping appendages and another red gem encrusted into its forehead.

Gender differences

Mesprit is genderless, although it is referred to as a female in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2.

Special abilities

Mesprit's spirit can leave its body without dying. Its spirit can return to the body at will. According to legend, it can drain one's emotions away by simply touching it.

Behavior

Habitat

Mesprit sleeps at the bottom of Lake Verity. Once it is encountered, it will run away, wandering around Sinnoh and only traceable with the Marking Map Pokétch app. Mesprit will warp to a new location whenever the player crosses the boundary between two areas except if the player passes through a gate between a city and a route, or if the player uses Fly.

On the Spear Pillar Stage occasionally the Lake trio makes a suprising "cameo" appearance during the fight; they do nothing, however.

Trophy Information

An Emotion Pokémon said to have taught humans emotions. Rumor is, if you touch Mesprit, you'll lose all emotions three days later. It sleeps at the base of Lake Verity, but once engaged in battle, it will rise from the water to fly around the Sinnoh region. Even if you see this Pokémon after your initial meeting, it'll try to flee battle, so catching it is quite a task.

Trivia

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 Yasakani no Magatama, which embodies benevolence.

Name origin

The English name comes from the personal pronoun me and esprit (French for "spirit") or sprite. Its Japanese name may come from the Japanese verb 笑む emu, meaning to smile, or emotion, and esprit or sprite.
