It has crimson scales that are much darker than that of the bright red Charmander. It has a tail with the tip burning with fire, a trait seen in many {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon, especially the Charmander evolutionary line. Its skull has developed a horn-like protrusion to the rear and its mouth has elongated into a snout. Its front and back claws are far sharper and longer than Charmander.<br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> None.<br /> ====Special abilities====<br /> Charmeleon can {{m|Flamethrower|breathe fire}}. This fire is much hotter than Charmander's. This is a result of a larger flame burning at the tip of its tail than that of Charmander's.<br /> <br /> It possesses incredibly large claws which it utilizes in its powerful {{m|Slash}} attack. <br /> <br /> Its tail is also very powerful, it can lift 5 adult men.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> Charmeleon tend to be stubborn, bad-tempered, and simply hot-headed. Due to their incredible power at such a low level, they can easily feel they are better than their trainers and will sometimes disregard attack commands. When tame, however, they are a formidable opponent and a loyal partner. Wild Charmeleon are ready to evolve when they begin to travel in different areas battling random opponents, and the flames on their tails begin to flash larger.<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> [[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]<br /> Charmeleon are rare in the wild, but thrive in harsh environments such as craggy mountains and active volcanoes. Charmeleon also dwell in large numbers in abandoned mines and heated valleys.<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> Charmeleon when in the wild will hunt solitary much unlike Charmander who hunt in packs. Their diet consists that of the average omnivorous Pokémon diet.<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Major appearances===<br /> [[Image:Charmeleon.png|thumb|right|Ash's Charmeleon in the anime]]<br /> ===={{AP|Ash's Charmeleon|Charizard}}====<br /> {{Ash}}'s {{p|Charmander}} evolved into Charmeleon in ''[[EP043|March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''. It quickly grew unruly and disobedient and evolved into {{AP|Charizard}} soon after, in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]''.<br /> <br /> ====[[Zippo|Ritchie's Charmeleon (Zippo)]]====<br /> [[Image:Zippo.jpg|thumb|right|Zippo, Ritchie's Charmeleon.]]<br /> [[Ritchie]]'s Charmander, nicknamed [[Zippo]], evolved into a Charmeleon off-screen and was first seen in its evolved form in ''[[EP221|A Parent Trapped]]''.<br /> <br /> ====Other====<br /> In ''[[EP087|The Crystal Onix]]'', [[Mateo]] used a Charmeleon to make glass and battle the titular Crystal {{p|Onix}}.<br /> <br /> [[Sam]] used a Charmeleon in ''[[Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' to battle the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]].<br /> <br /> A Charmeleon also appeared under the ownership of a trainer named {{ho|Jimmy}} in ''[[AG092|Judgement Day]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Pokédex entries===<br /> {{Animedexheader|Kanto}}<br /> {{Animedexbody|EP043|Charmeleon|Ash's Pokédex|Charmeleon, the Flame Pokémon.

It later evolves again into Charizard.<br /> ===Pokémon Adventures===<br /> Charmeleon debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'', part of the {{chap|Red, Green &amp; Blue}}, battling in the [[Pewter Gym]] as one of {{adv|Green}}'s Pokémon, it evolved from Charmander sometime between ''[[PS003|The Secret of Kangaskhan]]'' and this round.

Although its nomenclature suggests commonality with the {{wp|chameleon}}, Charmeleon exhibits very few of the major physiologically distinguishing traits of the chameleon.<br /> <br /> Charmeleon hasn't the specialized {{wp|Dactyly#Zygodactyly|zygodactylic}} feet, separately mobile eyes, extrudable tongue, or the ability to {{wp|Chameleon#Change of color|change color}} like some members of the chameleon species.<br /> <br /> The few characteristics it does share are the similarly looking snout, a prominent head crest (which resembles a small horn in its Generation I back sprite), and extensive use of its tail. Chameleons have {{wp|prehensile}} tails used for climbing and grasping, while Charmeleon utilizes its tail as a weapon.<br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Charmeleon's name is a portmanteau of the word ''char'', to burn, and ''{{wp|chameleon}}''. Its Japanese name is the Katakana spelling of ''lizard''.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> * [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Glutexo - A combination of ''Glut'' (ember, also the German translation for the {{m|Ember|move of the same name}}) and ''Echse'' (lizard).<br /> * [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Reptincel - Most likely a combination of ''reptile'' and ''Étincelle'' (spark).<br /> * [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 리자드 ''Rijadeu'' - Hangul spelling of ''Lizard''.<br /> * [[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese]] (Hong Kong and Taiwan): 火恐龍 ''Xíao Kông Lóng'' - &quot;Fire dinosaur.&quot;<br /> <br /> ==Related articles==<br /> * [[Ash's Charizard|Ash's Charmeleon]]<br /> * [[Zippo]]<br /> * [[Blue's Charizard|Blue's Charmeleon]]<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> <br /> {{PokémonPrevNext | type=fire | prevnum=004 | nextnum=006 | prev=Charmander | next=Charizard }}<br /> {{Project Pokédex notice}}<br /> <br /> [[de:Glutexo]]<br /> [[es:Charmeleon]]<br /> [[fr:Reptincel]]<br /> [[ja:リザード]]<br /> [[pl:Charmeleon]]<br /> [[pt:Charmeleon (pokémon)]]</div>

It has crimson scales that are much darker than that of the bright red Charmander. It has a tail with the tip burning with fire, a trait seen in many {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon, especially the Charmander evolutionary line. Its skull has developed a horn-like protrusion to the rear and its mouth has elongated into a snout. Its front and back claws are far sharper and longer than Charmander.<br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> None.<br /> ====Special abilities====<br /> Charmeleon can {{m|Flamethrower|breathe fire}}. This fire is much hotter than Charmander's. This is a result of a larger flame burning at the tip of its tail than that of Charmander's.<br /> <br /> It possesses incredibly large claws which it utilizes in its powerful {{m|Slash}} attack. Its tail is also very powerful, it can lift 5 adult men.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> Charmeleon tend to be stubborn, bad-tempered, and simply hot-headed. Due to their incredible power at such a low level, they can easily feel they are better than their trainers and will sometimes disregard attack commands. When tame, however, they are a formidable opponent and a loyal partner. Wild Charmeleon are ready to evolve when they begin to travel in different areas battling random opponents, and the flames on their tails begin to flash larger.<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> [[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]<br /> Charmeleon are rare in the wild, but thrive in harsh environments such as craggy mountains and active volcanoes. Charmeleon also dwell in large numbers in abandoned mines and heated valleys.<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> Charmeleon when in the wild will hunt solitary much unlike Charmander who hunt in packs. Their diet consists that of the average omnivorous Pokémon diet.<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Major appearances===<br /> [[Image:Charmeleon.png|thumb|right|Ash's Charmeleon in the anime]]<br /> ===={{AP|Ash's Charmeleon|Charizard}}====<br /> {{Ash}}'s {{p|Charmander}} evolved into Charmeleon in ''[[EP043|March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''. It quickly grew unruly and disobedient and evolved into {{AP|Charizard}} soon after, in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]''.<br /> <br /> ====[[Zippo|Ritchie's Charmeleon (Zippo)]]====<br /> [[Image:Zippo.jpg|thumb|right|Zippo, Ritchie's Charmeleon.]]<br /> [[Ritchie]]'s Charmander, nicknamed [[Zippo]], evolved into a Charmeleon off-screen and was first seen in its evolved form in ''[[EP221|A Parent Trapped]]''.<br /> <br /> ====Other====<br /> In ''[[EP087|The Crystal Onix]]'', [[Mateo]] used a Charmeleon to make glass and battle the titular Crystal {{p|Onix}}.<br /> <br /> [[Sam]] used a Charmeleon in ''[[Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' to battle the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]].<br /> <br /> A Charmeleon also appeared under the ownership of a trainer named {{ho|Jimmy}} in ''[[AG092|Judgement Day]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Pokédex entries===<br /> {{Animedexheader|Kanto}}<br /> {{Animedexbody|EP043|Charmeleon|Ash's Pokédex|Charmeleon, the Flame Pokémon.

Chameleons have {{wp|prehensile}} tails used for climbing and grasping, while Charmeleon utilizes its tail as a weapon.<br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Charmeleon's name is a portmanteau of the word ''char'', to burn, and ''{{wp|chameleon}}''.

Its serpentine body is largely blue, but its underbelly and the spots along its body is yellow. It has a three-pointed, dark blue crest on its head and four white fins down its back. Its mouth is very large and gaping, but bears some resemblance to that of its pre-evolution {{p|Magikarp}}. Like Magikarp, it has barbels on its face. Its pectoral and dorsal fins also resemble Magikarp's. Gyarados is only rarely shown with its mouth closed.<br /> <br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> A female has white barbels.<br /> <br /> ====Special abilities====<br /> Gyarados, like most dragon-like Pokémon, has a high {{Stat|Attack}} stat, causing it to rely more on physical attacks than special ones. It is one of the few {{type2|Water}}s able to wield both {{type2|Fire}} and {{type2|Electric}} attacks. Its fangs can crush stones and its scales are harder than steel. Its Dragon Rage can cause terrible storms.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> This Pokémon bears little resemblance to its docile {{p|Magikarp|pre-evolution}}. Gyarados is infamously known for its fierce temper and wanton destructive tendencies. Once it has worked itself into a frenzy, it will not calm until everything around it is destroyed&amp;mdash;this tendency is attributed to the dramatic structural changes its brain undergoes during evolution. It seems attracted to violence, although this Pokémon is very rarely seen in the wild. During times of human conflict Gyarados are said to appear, burning entire cities down to the ground.<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> [[Image:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]<br /> Gyarados usually live in large bodies of water, such as lakes and ponds or even seas and oceans. The [[Lake of Rage]] is a known nesting area for a [[red Gyarados]], something that researchers believe happen when a Magikarp is forced to evolve, having no time to change its scale color from red to blue.<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[File:Gyarados 2.jpg|thumb|210px|right|[[Misty's Gyarados]] in ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]'']]<br /> [[File:Gyarados Hyper Beam.png|thumb|210px|[[Red Gyarados]] using {{m|Hyper Beam}}]]<br /> ===Major Appearances===<br /> ====[[Misty's Gyarados]]====<br /> [[Misty]] obtained a Gyarados after passing the [[PIA]] test in ''[[H002|Cerulean Blues]]''. Prior to the test, Misty was terrified of Gyarados, but in order to pass the test, she had to overcome her fear of it. In the end, she calmed and kept the Gyarados.<br /> <br /> ====[[Red Gyarados]]====<br /> ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'' and ''[[EP236|Rage Of Innocence]]'' focused on a [[red Gyarados]]. It was on a destructive rampage until [[Lance]] captured it. This Gyarados appeared again in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'' and ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'' to stop the feuding of {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}.<br /> <br /> ====Other====<br /> Gyarados had a cameo appearance in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' It was then seen in ''[[EP016|Pokémon Shipwreck]]''. [[James]] was frustrated with his {{p|Magikarp}} and kicked it into the water. That Magikarp [[Evolution|evolved]] into a Gyarados.<br /> <br /> Groups of Gyarados were seen from within a submarine disguised as or styled after a Gyarados by [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in ''[[EP067|The Pi-Kahuna]]'' shortly before the onset of a massive, annual tidal wave celebrated by local surfers who were apparently not aware of the annual migration. According to James, the Gyarados gathered each year in this location to lay their eggs.<br /> <br /> A Gyarados was used in ''[[DP083|A Crasher Course in Power!]]'', under the ownership of [[Crasher Wake]].<br /> <br /> ===Minor Appearances===<br /> In ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', a Gyarados owned by [[Fergus]] was one of the Pokémon that were captured and cloned by {{an|Mewtwo}}. Fergus attacked Mewtwo with Gyarados' Hyper Beam but Mewtwo turned the attack back on itself, knocking the Gyarados out. The Gyarados clone is seen again in ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''.<br /> <br /> A Gyarados appeared in ''[[EP083|Poké Ball Peril]]''.<br /> <br /> [[Nurse Joy]] had befriended a [[giant Pokémon|giant]] Magikarp that later evolved into Gyarados in ''[[EP092|The Joy of Pokémon]]''. Despite Magikarp being giant, it was regular sized as a Gyarados.<br /> <br /> The Magikarp that [[Dr. Quackenpoker]] had been observing evolved into Gyarados in ''[[EP109|The Wacky Watcher!]]''.<br /> <br /> [[Trinity]] used a Gyarados in her battle against Misty in the Whirl Cup in ''[[EP217|The Perfect Match!]]''.<br /> <br /> A Gyarados appeared in ''[[DP047|Sandshrew's Locker!]]''.<br /> <br /> A Gyarados is used by one of the students of [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] in the second leg of the Pokémon Triathlon in ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]''.<br /> <br /> A Gyarados [[Hyper Beam|blasted Team Rocket]] away in ''[[DP138|The Mother of All Battlers!]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Pokédex entries===<br /> {{Animedexheader|Kanto}} <br /> {{Animedexbody|EP016|Gyarados|Ash's Pokédex|Gyarados. This Pokémon has a vicious temperament, so use extreme caution. Its fangs can crush stones and its scales are harder than steel.}}<br /> {{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Kanto}}<br /> <br /> ==In the manga==<br /> ===Pokémon Adventures===<br /> Gyarados debuts in the [[Red, Green &amp; Blue chapter (Adventures)|Red, Green &amp; Blue]] chapter in its own round, ''[[PS006|Gyarados Splashes In!]]''. Here, an enraged one attacks its own trainer, [[Misty]], but is recaught by {{adv|Red}}, who supposedly returns it to her. The drastic change in attitude of the Pokémon was the result of a [[Team Rocket]] experiment as is shown in ''[[PS007|Raging Rhydon]]''.<br /> <br /> Later on, Misty traded this Gyarados to Red in exchange for Red's {{p|Krabby}}.<br /> <br /> Gyarados is later seen with [[Lance]], using its {{m|BubbleBeam}} to shield him from the lava of [[Mt. Cerise]].<br /> <br /> A [[Red Gyarados]] was seen in the [[Lake of Rage]] three years later, but it was caught by {{adv|Silver}}. It had the ability to control the other Gyarados in the lake.<br /> <br /> When Red borrows {{adv|Blue}}'s {{p|Charizard}} to travel to [[Mt. Silver]], he temporarily trades his Gyarados to Blue. It later appears as one of Blue's Pokémon in {{PAV|13}}, used against {{p|Entei}}, and later part of his revealed team during the [[Gym Leader]] faceoff. Prior to the FireRed and LeafGreen saga, Blue returns Gyarados to Red.<br /> <br /> Both Gyarados have remained on their {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s teams to this day.<br /> <br /> ====Pokédex entries====<br /> {{Mangadexheader}}<br /> {{Mangadexbody|Pokémon Adventures|[[PS006]]|The evolved form of Magikarp.

This name would be impossible, however, as the games have a 10-character limit on English Pokémon names (shortening it to &quot;Skullkrakn&quot; or &quot;Skulkraken&quot; much like Victreebel and Feraligatr's names, however, would remain plausible).<br /> * Oddly, despite being part {{type2|Flying}}, it does not have wings and the only Flying-type move it can learn is {{m|Bounce}}, which it can only learn from a [[move tutor]] in {{game|Platinum}}. However, it has been seen flying in the {{pkmn|anime}}.<br /> * In Generation II and Generation IV, Gyarados is the only 100%-certain {{shiny2}} encounter and the first of only two [[shiny Pokémon]] to be integrated into a game's plot (the second was {{mdc|Celebi|2}} in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]).<br /> * Gyarados' shiny sprite has changed color every generation.<br /> * In the Pokémon anime, Gyarados's eyes are violet instead of the red that appears in its sprites and official artwork.<br /> * Gyarados is one of ten non-{{t|Bug}}, {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon that cannot learn {{m|Fly}}.<br /> * In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]], Gyarados is the only non-legendary boss Pokémon to speak entirely in capital letters.<br /> * In the anime episode ''[[DP047|Sandshrew's Locker!]]'', Gyarados has the same cry as Dialga.<br /> * In many ways, Gyarados is the [[Kanto]] counterpart of [[Hoenn]]'s {{p|Milotic}}. Both are the evolved forms of incredibly weak fish Pokémon, and both appear in times of conflict, Gyarados to destroy, Milotic to becalm. Both have base stat totals of 540 with numbers matching down to the digits, but a different distribution in their stats: Gyarados is more Physical-Attack/Special Defense based while Milotic is more of an Special-Defense/Special Attack based. They both have the same HP, Defense, and Speed.<br /> *In many Pokédex entries Gyarados is said to burn things down, despite being a Water-type. The only way a Gyarados can have a Fire-type move is via [[TM]], learning both {{m|Flamethrower}} and {{m|Fire Blast}}.<br /> * Despite being claimed to have rock-hard scales, its base Defense stat is only 79.<br /> <br /> ===Origin===<br /> It appears to be based on a sea dragon or {{wp|sea serpent}}. Gyarados is partially based on a legend about how carp that leapt over the Dragon Gate would become dragons. Several waterfalls and cataracts in China are believed to be the location of the Dragon Gate. This legend is an allegory of the drive and efforts needed to overcome obstacles (which can be tied to the fact that Gyarados' pre-evolution, Magikarp, could possibly take a lot of drive and effort to legitimately evolve into Gyarados).<br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Gyarados's name may be derived from a combination of 虐殺 ''gyakusatsu'' massacre/slaughter, and 逆境 ''gyakkyō'', hardship/adversity. Both words relate to the creature's violent nature and the hardship it experienced before evolving. The ''dos'' may just indicate that it's the second in its evolutionary line. Alternatively, the end of Gyarados' name, ドス ''dosu'', is a Japanese onomatopeic word representing the piercing of flesh, once again owing to Gyarados' violent nature.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> * [[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Garados<br /> * [[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Leviator - A corruption of ''{{wp|Leviathan}}''.<br /> * [[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 갸라도스 ''Gyaradoseu''<br /> <br /> ==Related articles==<br /> * [[Misty's Gyarados]]<br /> * [[Red Gyarados]]<br /> * [[Gyara]]<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> <br /> ==Notes==<br /> &lt;references /&gt;<br /> <br /> {{PokémonPrevNext | prev=Magikarp | next=Lapras|type=water|type2=flying| prevnum=129| nextnum=131}}<br /> {{Project Pokédex notice}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Pokémon that are included in the Japan-only Pokémon Stadium]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Garados]]<br /> [[es:Gyarados]]<br /> [[fr:Léviator]]<br /> [[ja:ギャラドス]]<br /> [[pt:Gyarados (pokémon)]]</div>

In [[Generation III]], its form depends on what game is being played. In [[Generation IV]], its form can be changed at will in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3}}.<br /> <br /> Deoxys is the last Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Dex number|Hoenn Pokédex]] and [[National Pokédex]] within [[Generation III]].<br /> <br /> ==Biology==<br /> ===Physiology===<br /> [[Image: Deoxys regenerating.png|thumb|right|225px|Deoxys regenerating]]<br /> Deoxys has four forms, each with different appearance. The main things that are constant for all four forms is that Deoxys's dominant color is orange with a bluish-green face that has a purple stripe where a nose would be and white circular eyes and the crystalline organ in its chest:<br /> <br /> The Normal Forme has skinny legs that come to a point. The upper-legs have a single blue stripe that goes down to the knees. Deoxys can sometimes have bluish-green arms with five-fingered hands and a red &quot;Y&quot; shape that runs down the arms' entire length. It has an orange skin that covers it except for its abdomen. It also been seen with two cord-like tentacles (one red and one blue) in place of the arms. Deoxys also has two trapezoid-shaped &quot;ears&quot;. In [[Generation IV]], this form is obtained by touching the middle meteorite in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3}}.<br /> [[Image:Aurora.png|thumb|225px|The aurora that Deoxys lets off]]<br /> The Attack Forme has basically the same leg-shape as the Normal Forme, but the stripes run down for mostly all of the legs' length and Deoxys has a spike on each of its knees. Deoxys has a pair of tentacles that come to a point were its arms would be and cannot be twisted. Deoxys has triangle-shaped &quot;ears&quot; and a single spike on top of its head. Most of the orange &quot;skin&quot; has disappeared. In [[Generation IV]], this form is obtained by touching the southeast meteorite in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3}}.<br /> <br /> The Defense Forme has wide legs that are somewhat flat at the end and have a bluish-green spot on each of the knees. Deoxys has flat, broad tentacles that also can't be twisted and Deoxys' head has been fused with its body. Its &quot;skin&quot; has thickened and covered all of its body parts for greater defense. In [[Generation IV]], this form is obtained by touching the southwest meteorite in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3}}.<br /> <br /> The Speed Forme has gray, skinny legs and a gray body. Deoxys only has one tentacle on each side of its body. The back of Deoxys's head is elongated and comes to a point. It has also lost most of its orange &quot;skin,&quot; allowing for better aerodynamics and faster movement. In [[Generation IV]], this form is obtained by touching the northernmost meteorite in [[Veilstone City]] or on {{rt|3}}.<br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> Deoxys is a genderless species.<br /> <br /> ====Special abilities====<br /> [[Image: Aurora at Night.png|thumb|right|225px|The aurora at night]]<br /> Deoxys mostly has the ability to change its appearance to suit whatever situation it may be in during battle. <br /> <br /> Deoxys can release aurora every time it changes its forme.<br /> <br /> In the anime and manga, Deoxys is also seen with the ability to create clones of itself. They appear with lifeless eyes and have dulled-down colors, and appear to be unable to use other formes besides Normal Forme. It can also reganarate<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> Deoxys tend to keep to themselves, but befriend humans they trust.<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> [[Image:Rare.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]<br /> Deoxys was a virus resting in a stray meteor, and while it flew through the atmosphere, the virus mutated into the first known Deoxys.<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[File:{{#switch: {{#time: w}}|0|6=DeoxysSpeedAnime.png|1|5=Deoxys Defense Forme.png|2|4=Deoxys Attack Forme.png|3=Deoxys Origin Forme.png}}|thumb|220px|{{#switch: {{#time: w}}|0|6=Speed Forme|1|5=Defense Forme|2|4=Attack Forme|3=Normal Forme}} Deoxys in the anime]]<br /> {{mov|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 {{p|Rayquaza}}. As {{game|Emerald}} had not been released when the movie was produced, only its {{stat|Defense}}, Normal and {{stat|Attack}} Formes appeared.<br /> <br /> Deoxys also appeared in the special episode ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys Crisis!]]''. This is where Deoxys's {{stat|Speed}} Forme debuted.<br /> <br /> A Deoxys appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'' in all of its formes.<br /> <br /> ==In the manga==<br /> ===In Pokémon Adventures===<br /> Deoxys plays a major role in the events of the {{chap|FireRed &amp; LeafGreen}}. During the disaster in the previous chapter, [[Team Rocket]] infiltrated the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] and stole a virus that had been exposed to a laser beam while in space, then ended up attached to a meteorite. In their care, the virus split into two entities and developed into two separate Deoxys, appropriately named Entities 1 and 2. While the leaders of Team Rocket stayed on in [[Hoenn]], other members took the two Deoxys back to Kanto. The team transporting the Deoxys were startled when the Deoxys began to change forme (as Normal and Speed forms had been previously documented) and Entity Two took advantage of this and escaped, accidentally absorbing some of {{adv|Red}}'s blood in the escape. [[Giovanni]] used the weaker Entity One to capture {{adv|Green}}'s parents and [[Professor Oak]]. Red was tricked into battling Entity Two, who defeated him but was captured by Giovanni. Around this time, Team Rocket managed to duplicate the climate of [[Hoenn]] and allowed Deoxys to transform into all of its formes. Giovanni used Entity Two to locate his son, {{adv|Silver}} and set out for [[Viridian City]]. Red came to Giovanni, and challenged him with {{p|Mewtwo}}. Ultimately triumphing due to [[Bill]] shutting down the Hoenn climate machine on [[Chrono Island]], Giovanni revealed that he disposed of Entity One and {{adv|Yellow}} used her abilities to inform Red of his link to Deoxys. When one of the Team Rocket members tried to usurp control, Deoxys transported Giovanni, Silver, Yellow, and Mewtwo out of harm's way before helping Red to regain control of the ship. As the disaster ended and all of the protagonists reunited, [[Sird]] tried to capture Deoxys, but ended up turning the heroes to stone. Entity Two then sped towards a [[Sinnoh|distant region]] in hopes of being allowed to freely transfer between formes and locating Entity One.<br /> <br /> ===In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===<br /> Deoxys plays a large part in a [[DPAS1|Special Chapter]] of Volume 3 in the series. [[Hareta]] and [[Mitsumi]] are in [[Veilstone City]]. They come upon the large meteorite, and 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 saw the crash, and begin to battle it. It, of course, defeats Team Galactic's puny Pokémon. [[Professor Rowan]] shows up, a little worried that something might've happened to Hareta. He asks Rowan what happened to &quot;that weird Pokémon&quot;. They then see Deoxys, and Rowan is shocked to see such a rare Pokémon. It transforms to Attack Forme and fires off what seems to be a {{m|Hyper Beam}} at Hareta and Rowan. Rowan tells Hareta not to make it any madder, but instead he jumps on top of Deoxys and asks it what's wrong. It flings him off, then tries to fire another Hyper Beam 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 &quot;super bug concert&quot;. 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 Hyper Beam, but it hits 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.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> {{main|Deoxys (TCG)}}<br /> <br /> ==Other appearances==<br /> ===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===<br /> An Attack Forme Deoxys will sometimes be released from a [[Poké Ball]]. It floats gently towards the top of the screen. It will spin gracefully and begin to glow. When fully facing the front, it will cast a powerful {{m|Hyper Beam}}, drawing in all the opponents near it and sending them flying.<br /> <br /> ====Trophy Information====<br /> ''A DNA Pokémon born through the mutation of the DNA of a space virus. It has multiple formes, and the abilities it possesses and the techniques it can remember change from form to form. It has four forms: normal, attack, defense, and speed.

Likewise, the final Pokémon in the [[Kanto Pokédex]], {{p|Mew}}, was first found (legitimately) wild in a {{game3|Emerald|Hoenn-based game}}.<br /> * When recruited in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] Deoxys will be in its Normal Forme when playing in the overworld, however, when exploring a dungeon, Deoxys's form will be randomly selected each time the player progresses to a new floor.<br /> * Although Deoxys is the last Pokémon in the National Dex in the Generation III, it was not the Pokémon with the highest [[index number]]: this was {{p|Chimecho}}.<br /> * In Pokémon Ranger, Deoxys's form changes every time its [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|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.<br /> * Deoxys was the first Pokémon to have its own unique battle music. The second Pokémon to have its own unique music was {{p|Arceus}}, followed by {{p|Giratina}}, the latter in Platinum only. All other [[legendary Pokémon]] share battle themes with at least one other.<br /> * In the {{pkmn|anime}} and in {{ga|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.<br /> * Deoxys and {{p|Wormadam}} are the only Pokémon to have different EV yields depending on their form and are, as such, the only Pokémon with varying EV yields.<br /> * Using the first letter from the names of Deoxys' three original forms, one can spell &quot;DNA&quot; ('''D'''efense, '''N'''ormal, and '''A'''ttack).<br /> * Deoxys is the only Pokémon whose form change is triggered by different events between generations.<br /> * Normal Forme and Attack Forme Deoxys are the only Pokémon to surpass Arceus in 3 or more base stats. Both formes beat it in Attack, Special Attack, and Speed.<br /> <br /> ===Events===<br /> * Because of the results of a poll among fans, Deoxys was given away along with pre-ordered tickets to Japanese theater showings of ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]''. It is holding {{DL|Type-enhancing item|NeverMeltIce}}, a reference to the fact that Deoxys's first appearance in ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'' is at the North Pole.<br /> * Deoxys was distributed at GameStop on June 20-22, and June 27-29. It knows {{m|Psycho Boost}}, {{m|Zap Cannon}}, {{m|Iron Defense}}, and {{m|ExtremeSpeed}} and is holding {{DL|Type-enhancing item|NeverMeltIce}}.<br /> * A UK event (known as 'The Hunt for Deoxys') in 2005 was held at vue cinema's for 2 days each across the country, players of FireRed and LeafGreen were able to download the Aurora Ticket. Players could also try out {{Pokémon XD}} and {{game|Emerald}}.<br /> <br /> ===Origin===<br /> Deoxys appears to draw inspiration from certain representations of aliens and visual representations of the DNA double helix.<br /> <br /> Notably, it bears great resemblance to Lavos, the antagonist of the influential 1995 game Chrono Trigger. Lavos is an alien of great power who absorbs the DNA of organisms in order to empower itself, before destroying human civilization in the apocalypse. Deoxys normal form's and Lavos' appearances are also virtually the same. Given the variety of similarities to Lavos and the popularity of Chrono Trigger, it is not unreasonable to believe Deoxys is a homage to Lavos.<br /> <br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Deoxys's name is an abbreviation of ''{{wp|DNA|deoxyribonucleic acid}}'', or DNA, the medium of genetic code in many cellular organisms. It was also mentioned in [[Destiny Deoxys|the 7th movie]] that [[Professor Lund]] gave it the name Deoxys.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> *[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Deoxys<br /> *[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Deoxys<br /> *[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 테오키스 ''Teokis''&lt;!--''''--&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Notes==<br /> {| style=&quot;background: #ccf; border: 2px solid #bebed1; width: 100%; -moz-border-radius: 30px;&quot; class=&quot;expandable&quot;<br /> | &lt;center&gt;'''This article is covered by multiple navigation templates.

Like {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}} before it, Arceus was not officially recognized by Nintendo until February, 2009, the year of its debut movie. It was later revealed by the [[Pokémon.com|official site]] on August 3rd, 2009, making all Pokémon in the games officially revealed.<br /> <br /> Arceus is also known as &quot;The Original One,&quot; as it is said that it created [[Sinnoh]], and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], along with the [[lake guardians]] and [[dragon trio]]. The only legitimate way to get Arceus is with the [[Azure Flute]], which has yet to be distributed officially, or through a Nintendo event.<br /> <br /> ==Biology==<br /> ===Physiology===<br /> Arceus is an equine being similar to a {{wp|Qilin}} or {{wp|Centaur}}. Its body is white with a gray underside, and its four pointed feet are tipped with gold hooves. Its mane is quite long and its face is gray with green eyes with red pupils. It also has a golden cross-like wheel attached to its body, which changes color along with its eyes and hooves based on Arceus's {{t|{{arceustype}}|current type}}. The wheel also has four jewels attached to it.<br /> <br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> Arceus is a genderless species.<br /> <br /> ====Special abilities====<br /> [[Image:Arceus_Formes.gif|right|thumb|An animation displaying Arceus's different colorings while holding plates]]<br /> According to legend, Arceus is thought to have created the [[Sinnoh]] region and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], the [[Lake guardians]], {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Giratina}}. Thus, Arceus has the power to control Space, Time, and Dimension.<br /> And it also has the highest base stat of any Pokemon.<br /> <br /> While Arceus is normally a pure {{type2|Normal}}, it has the [[ability]] to {{a|Multitype|change its type and appearance}} when in contact with special [[plate]]s.<br /> <br /> Arceus is [[signature move|the only known]] Pokémon that learns {{m|Judgment}} via level-up. Arceus can also use many attacks of various types, but to a lesser extent than {{p|Smeargle}} or {{p|Mew}}. Arceus is also the only non-Dragon type Pokémon other than Smeargle who can learn {{m|Draco Meteor}}, although it must become a {{type2|Dragon}} (by holding a {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}) in order to learn it.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]], which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at [[Spear Pillar]].<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[Image: Arceus movie 12.png|thumb|250px|right|[[Arceus (movie 12)|Arceus]] in the anime]]<br /> {{an|Arceus}} made its debut in ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. It was angry at the people of [[Michina Town]] for [[Damos]]'s unwitting betrayal of it in ancient times, and so attempted to destroy the land. When Ash and his friends are teleported by {{an|Dialga}} to ancient times, they directly influence the event, changing the future for the better so that Arceus will stop its destruction.<br /> <br /> In [[DP152]], the [[Red Chain]] takes on the appearance of the ring that surrounds Arceus's body when it is wrapped around {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. Despite this, Arceus itself does not appear.<br /> <br /> ==In the manga==<br /> Arceus appears as a central character in the Movie 12 manga adaptation, reprising its role from the film. After Arceus saved the world from a meteor, [[Damos]] took care of it. It gave Damos the [[Jewel of Life]] to make the land of [[Michīna]] rich and fertile. Damos then betrayed Arceus, and it has been outraged ever since.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> {{main|Arceus (TCG)}}<br /> Arceus appears in the TCG in all nine {{TCG|elemental types}}, and a player can have as many Arceus cards in their deck as they like, unlike all other cards in the game (besides {{TCG|Basic Energy card}}s). Cards based on Arceus first appeared in the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus|Arceus}} expansion set.<br /> <br /> ==Game data==<br /> ===Pokédex entries===<br /> {{Dex<br /> |type=arceus<br /> |gen=4<br />

The highest is {{p|Magikarp}} which can be caught at up to level 100 in {{game|Platinum}}. It is, however, still the highest level {{pkmn2|legendary}} Pokémon available for capture.<br /> * Arceus's English name has had three different pronunciations. Before it was officially revealed, fans pronounced it as &quot;AR-see-oos&quot;, as does [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]. Then, a promotional trailer for ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' pronounced it as &quot;Ar-SAY-us&quot;. Its official pronunciation was then revealed in a [[Pokémon.com]] mailbag as &quot;ARK-ee-us&quot;.<br /> * Arceus's [[base stat]] total is 720, higher than any other Pokémon. {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 680|Previous Pokémon}}, among them {{p|Mewtwo}}, have only had a maximum total of 680.<br /> ** In its base form, Arceus has the highest [[base stat]] in {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.<br /> * Arceus has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}. That means an Arceus would yield 13,933 experience points when defeated if it is at [[level]] 100 and belongs to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.<br /> * The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{type2|???}}. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable, as there is no [[plate]] in the code that can be used for this. It is possible this sprite was programmed in to prevent game crashes caused by tampering with Arceus's type.<br /> * Arceus's signature move, Judgment, is the only move that Arceus is guaranteed [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] for, as it is always the same type as Arceus itself. However, on the battle screen, Judgment is always displayed as a {{type2|Normal}} attack.<br /> * Even though it is said that Arceus created the world with its thousand arms, it is not shown to have any arms at all, nor can it learn hand and arm based moves such as the elemental punches.<br /> * Holding the {{DL|Plate|Sky Plate}}, Arceus is the only Pokémon able to become a pure {{type2|Flying}} outside of battle (other Pokémon can do so in battle through the use of {{m|Conversion}}, {{m|Conversion 2}}, and {{a|Color Change}}).<br /> * With the appropriate [[plate]], Arceus is the only legendary {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Bug}}-, or {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.<br /> * {{m|Earth Power}} is the only move with a fixed base power, besides {{m|Judgment}}, that Arceus learns by level-up which can receive [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] with a plate attached.<br /> * Arceus is the only [[trio master]] not catchable by typical in-game mechanics, instead needing an event item (the [[Azure Flute]]) to be catchable in-game.<br /> ** Furthermore, Arceus is the only trio master of two [[Lake guardians|different]] [[Dragon trio|trios]].<br /> * Arceus is the only Pokémon to never officially receive a [[List of Pokémon by Diamond &amp; Pearl Battle Pokédex number|DPBP number]], although it or one of its forms probably would have been assigned DPBP#532 had that system continued to be used.<br /> * The ring around Arceus's body appears to have a malevolent counterpart in the embodiment of the [[Red Chain]], as a red version of it is shown to ring Dialga and Palkia around the middle when [[Cyrus]] takes control of them in [[DP152]].<br /> * The Arceus event that takes place in HeartGold and SoulSilver includes real life pictures in the game. This is a first for an event within a game and a first in the Pokémon games franchise.<br /> * Arceus can learn all of the [[HM]] moves, including ones which no longer have that status.<br /> ===Origin===<br /> Arceus may be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the {{wp|Qilin}}. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the {{wp|Pangu}}, the Chinese creation deity.<br /> <br /> Arceus may also be inspired by (or a representation of) {{wp|Avalokiteśvara}} who, in {{wp|Buddhism}}, is either pictured with eleven heads and one thousand arms (the latter of which is mentioned in Arceus's flavor text) or in a white four-armed manifestation (which could look similar to Arceus's Normal form). <br /> <br /> Some inspiration may have come from a {{wp|horse}}, because of its Platinum sprite and attack movements in Pokémon Battle Revolution.<br /> <br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Arceus's name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin and Greek for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''. Or Arceus's name which was pronounced as (Arh-keus) maybe a combination of &quot;Arch&quot; and a mispronounced word &quot;Chaos&quot;.<br /> <br /> Arceus's name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'', and is derived from the ancient Greek word for &quot;beginning&quot;, ''arkhē''. It could have also come from the Latin word ''archetypus'' (original). Alternatively, Arceus's name can be seen as a portmanteau of ''Zeus'', the most powerful of Greek gods and ''arch'' (highest).<br /> <br /> Arceus' name is pronounced with a soft &quot;c&quot; by the announcer in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]; in keeping with its probable name origin, it is pronounced with a hard &quot;c&quot; in television commercials and in ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> *[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Arceus<br /> *[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Arceus<br /> *[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 아르세우스 ''Arceus''<br /> <br /> &lt;!--==Notes==--&gt;<br /> {{Legendary Pokémon}}<br /> {{event Pokémon}}<br /> <br /> {{PokémonPrevNext | prev=Shaymin|prevnum=492 | next=Bulbasaur|nextnum=001 | type=Arceus }}<br /> {{Project Pokédex notice}}<br /> [[Category:Legendary Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Sinnoh Legendary Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Pokémon with different forms]]<br /> [[Category:Promotion-only Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Trio masters]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Arceus]]<br /> [[es:Arceus]]<br /> [[fr:Arceus]]<br /> [[ja:アルセウス]]<br /> [[pt:Arceus (pokémon)]]</div>

Like {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}} before it, Arceus was not officially recognized by Nintendo until February, 2009, the year of its debut movie. It was later revealed by the [[Pokémon.com|official site]] on August 3rd, 2009, making all Pokémon in the games officially revealed.<br /> <br /> Arceus is also known as &quot;The Original One,&quot; as it is said that it created [[Sinnoh]], and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], along with the [[lake guardians]] and [[dragon trio]]. The only legitimate way to get Arceus is with the [[Azure Flute]], which has yet to be distributed officially, or through a Nintendo event.<br /> <br /> ==Biology==<br /> ===Physiology===<br /> Arceus is an equine being similar to a {{wp|Qilin}} or {{wp|Centaur}}. Its body is white with a gray underside, and its four pointed feet are tipped with gold hooves. Its mane is quite long and its face is gray with green eyes with red pupils. It also has a golden cross-like wheel attached to its body, which changes color along with its eyes and hooves based on Arceus's {{t|{{arceustype}}|current type}}. The wheel also has four jewels attached to it.<br /> <br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> Arceus is a genderless species.<br /> <br /> ====Special abilities====<br /> [[Image:Arceus_Formes.gif|right|thumb|An animation displaying Arceus's different colorings while holding plates]]<br /> According to legend, Arceus is thought to have created the [[Sinnoh]] region and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], the [[Lake guardians]], {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Giratina}}. Thus, Arceus has the power to control Space, Time, and Dimension.<br /> <br /> While Arceus is normally a pure {{type2|Normal}}, it has the [[ability]] to {{a|Multitype|change its type and appearance}} when in contact with special [[plate]]s.<br /> <br /> Arceus is [[signature move|the only known]] Pokémon that learns {{m|Judgment}} via level-up. Arceus can also use many attacks of various types, but to a lesser extent than {{p|Smeargle}} or {{p|Mew}}. Arceus is also the only non-Dragon type Pokémon other than Smeargle who can learn {{m|Draco Meteor}}, although it must become a {{type2|Dragon}} (by holding a {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}) in order to learn it.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]], which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at [[Spear Pillar]].<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[Image: Arceus movie 12.png|thumb|250px|right|[[Arceus (movie 12)|Arceus]] in the anime]]<br /> {{an|Arceus}} made its debut in ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. It was angry at the people of [[Michina Town]] for [[Damos]]'s unwitting betrayal of it in ancient times, and so attempted to destroy the land. When Ash and his friends are teleported by {{an|Dialga}} to ancient times, they directly influence the event, changing the future for the better so that Arceus will stop its destruction.<br /> <br /> In [[DP152]], the [[Red Chain]] takes on the appearance of the ring that surrounds Arceus's body when it is wrapped around {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. Despite this, Arceus itself does not appear.<br /> <br /> ==In the manga==<br /> Arceus appears as a central character in the Movie 12 manga adaptation, reprising its role from the film. After Arceus saved the world from a meteor, [[Damos]] took care of it. It gave Damos the [[Jewel of Life]] to make the land of [[Michīna]] rich and fertile. Damos then betrayed Arceus, and it has been outraged ever since.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> {{main|Arceus (TCG)}}<br /> Arceus appears in the TCG in all nine {{TCG|elemental types}}, and a player can have as many Arceus cards in their deck as they like, unlike all other cards in the game (besides {{TCG|Basic Energy card}}s). Cards based on Arceus first appeared in the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus|Arceus}} expansion set.<br /> <br /> ==Game data==<br /> ===Pokédex entries===<br /> {{Dex<br /> |type=arceus<br /> |gen=4<br />

}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> [[Image:Spr 4p 493-Unknown.png|thumb|right|Normal-color sprite for {{type2|???}} Arceus]][[Image:Spr 4p 493-Unknown s.png|thumb|right|{{Pkmn2|Shiny}} sprite for {{type2|???}} Arceus]]<br /> * At level 80, Arceus is the second highest level non-glitch Pokémon available for capture. The highest is {{p|Magikarp}} which can be caught at up to level 100 in {{game|Platinum}}. It is, however, still the highest level {{pkmn2|legendary}} Pokémon available for capture.<br /> * Arceus's English name has had three different pronunciations. Before it was officially revealed, fans pronounced it as &quot;AR-see-oos&quot;, as does [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]. Then, a promotional trailer for ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' pronounced it as &quot;Ar-SAY-us&quot;. Its official pronunciation was then revealed in a [[Pokémon.com]] mailbag as &quot;ARK-ee-us&quot;.<br /> * Arceus's [[base stat]] total is 720, higher than any other Pokémon. {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 680|Previous Pokémon}}, among them {{p|Mewtwo}}, have only had a maximum total of 680.<br /> ** In its base form, Arceus has the highest [[base stat]] in {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.<br /> * Arceus has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}. That means an Arceus would yield 13,933 experience points when defeated if it is at [[level]] 100 and belongs to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.<br /> * The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{type2|???}}. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable, as there is no [[plate]] in the code that can be used for this. It is possible this sprite was programmed in to prevent game crashes caused by tampering with Arceus's type.<br /> * Arceus's signature move, Judgment, is the only move that Arceus is guaranteed [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] for, as it is always the same type as Arceus itself. However, on the battle screen, Judgment is always displayed as a {{type2|Normal}} attack.<br /> * Even though it is said that Arceus created the world with its thousand arms, it is not shown to have any arms at all, nor can it learn hand and arm based moves such as the elemental punches.<br /> * Holding the {{DL|Plate|Sky Plate}}, Arceus is the only Pokémon able to become a pure {{type2|Flying}} outside of battle (other Pokémon can do so in battle through the use of {{m|Conversion}}, {{m|Conversion 2}}, and {{a|Color Change}}).<br /> * With the appropriate [[plate]], Arceus is the only legendary {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Bug}}-, or {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.<br /> * {{m|Earth Power}} is the only move with a fixed base power, besides {{m|Judgment}}, that Arceus learns by level-up which can receive [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] with a plate attached.<br /> * Arceus is the only [[trio master]] not catchable by typical in-game mechanics, instead needing an event item (the [[Azure Flute]]) to be catchable in-game.<br /> ** Furthermore, Arceus is the only trio master of two [[Lake guardians|different]] [[Dragon trio|trios]].<br /> * Arceus is the only Pokémon to never officially receive a [[List of Pokémon by Diamond &amp; Pearl Battle Pokédex number|DPBP number]], although it or one of its forms probably would have been assigned DPBP#532 had that system continued to be used.<br /> * The ring around Arceus's body appears to have a malevolent counterpart in the embodiment of the [[Red Chain]], as a red version of it is shown to ring Dialga and Palkia around the middle when [[Cyrus]] takes control of them in [[DP152]].<br /> * The Arceus event that takes place in HeartGold and SoulSilver includes real life pictures in the game. This is a first for an event within a game and a first in the Pokémon games franchise.<br /> * Arceus can learn all of the [[HM]] moves, including ones which no longer have that status.<br /> ===Origin===<br /> Arceus may be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the {{wp|Qilin}}. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the {{wp|Pangu}}, the Chinese creation deity.<br /> <br /> Arceus may also be inspired by (or a representation of) {{wp|Avalokiteśvara}} who, in {{wp|Buddhism}}, is either pictured with eleven heads and one thousand arms (the latter of which is mentioned in Arceus's flavor text) or in a white four-armed manifestation (which could look similar to Arceus's Normal form). <br /> <br /> Some inspiration may have come from a {{wp|horse}}, because of its Platinum sprite and attack movements in Pokémon Battle Revolution.<br /> <br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Arceus's name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin and Greek for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''. Or Arceus's name which was pronounced as (Arh-keus) maybe a combination of &quot;Arch&quot; and a mispronounced word &quot;Chaos&quot;.<br /> <br /> Arceus's name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'', and is derived from the ancient Greek word for &quot;beginning&quot;, ''arkhē''. It could have also come from the Latin word ''archetypus'' (original). Alternatively, Arceus's name can be seen as a portmanteau of ''Zeus'', the most powerful of Greek gods and ''arch'' (highest).<br /> <br /> Arceus' name is pronounced with a soft &quot;c&quot; by the announcer in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]; in keeping with its probable name origin, it is pronounced with a hard &quot;c&quot; in television commercials and in ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> *[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Arceus<br /> *[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Arceus<br /> *[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 아르세우스 ''Arceus''<br /> <br /> &lt;!--==Notes==--&gt;<br /> {{Legendary Pokémon}}<br /> {{event Pokémon}}<br /> <br /> {{PokémonPrevNext | prev=Shaymin|prevnum=492 | next=Bulbasaur|nextnum=001 | type=Arceus }}<br /> {{Project Pokédex notice}}<br /> [[Category:Legendary Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Sinnoh Legendary Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Pokémon with different forms]]<br /> [[Category:Promotion-only Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Trio masters]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Arceus]]<br /> [[es:Arceus]]<br /> [[fr:Arceus]]<br /> [[ja:アルセウス]]<br /> [[pt:Arceus (pokémon)]]</div>

Like {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}} before it, Arceus was not officially recognized by Nintendo until February, 2009, the year of its debut movie. It was later revealed by the [[Pokémon.com|official site]] on August 3rd, 2009, making all Pokémon in the games officially revealed.<br /> <br /> Arceus is also known as &quot;The Original One,&quot; as it is said that it created [[Sinnoh]], and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], along with the [[lake guardians]] and [[dragon trio]]. The only legitimate way to get Arceus is with the [[Azure Flute]], which has yet to be distributed officially, or through a Nintendo event.<br /> <br /> ==Biology==<br /> ===Physiology===<br /> Arceus is an equine being similar to a {{wp|Qilin}} or {{wp|Centaur}}. Its body is white with a gray underside, and its four pointed feet are tipped with gold hooves. Its mane is quite long and its face is gray with green eyes with red pupils. It also has a golden cross-like wheel attached to its body, which changes color along with its eyes and hooves based on Arceus's {{t|{{arceustype}}|current type}}. The wheel also has four jewels attached to it.<br /> <br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> Arceus is a genderless species.<br /> <br /> ====Special abilities====<br /> [[Image:Arceus_Formes.gif|right|thumb|An animation displaying Arceus's different colorings while holding plates]]<br /> According to legend, Arceus is thought to have created the [[Sinnoh]] region and possibly the entire [[Pokémon world]], the [[Lake guardians]], {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Giratina}}. Thus, Arceus has the power to control Space, Time,and Dimension.<br /> <br /> While Arceus is normally a pure {{type2|Normal}}, it has the [[ability]] to {{a|Multitype|change its type and appearance}} when in contact with special [[plate]]s.<br /> <br /> Arceus is [[signature move|the only known]] Pokémon that learns {{m|Judgment}} via level-up. Arceus can also use many attacks of various types, but to a lesser extent than {{p|Smeargle}} or {{p|Mew}}. Arceus is also the only non-Dragon type Pokémon other than Smeargle who can learn {{m|Draco Meteor}}, although it must become a {{type2|Dragon}} (by holding a {{DL|Plate|Draco Plate}}) in order to learn it.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]], which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at [[Spear Pillar]].<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[Image: Arceus movie 12.png|thumb|250px|right|[[Arceus (movie 12)|Arceus]] in the anime]]<br /> {{an|Arceus}} made its debut in ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. It was angry at the people of [[Michina Town]] for [[Damos]]'s unwitting betrayal of it in ancient times, and so attempted to destroy the land. When Ash and his friends are teleported by {{an|Dialga}} to ancient times, they directly influence the event, changing the future for the better so that Arceus will stop its destruction.<br /> <br /> In [[DP152]], the [[Red Chain]] takes on the appearance of the ring that surrounds Arceus's body when it is wrapped around {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. Despite this, Arceus itself does not appear.<br /> <br /> ==In the manga==<br /> Arceus appears as a central character in the Movie 12 manga adaptation, reprising its role from the film. After Arceus saved the world from a meteor, [[Damos]] took care of it. It gave Damos the [[Jewel of Life]] to make the land of [[Michīna]] rich and fertile. Damos then betrayed Arceus, and it has been outraged ever since.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> {{main|Arceus (TCG)}}<br /> Arceus appears in the TCG in all nine {{TCG|elemental types}}, and a player can have as many Arceus cards in their deck as they like, unlike all other cards in the game (besides {{TCG|Basic Energy card}}s). Cards based on Arceus first appeared in the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus|Arceus}} expansion set.<br /> <br /> ==Game data==<br /> ===Pokédex entries===<br /> {{Dex<br /> |type=arceus<br /> |gen=4<br />

{{type2|???}} Arceus]]<br /> * At level 80, Arceus is the second highest level non-glitch Pokémon available for capture. The highest is {{p|Magikarp}} which can be caught at up to level 100 in {{game|Platinum}}. It is, however, still the highest level {{pkmn2|legendary}} Pokémon available for capture.<br /> * Arceus's English name has had three different pronunciations. Before it was officially revealed, fans pronounced it as &quot;AR-see-oos&quot;, as does [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]. Then, a promotional trailer for ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' pronounced it as &quot;Ar-SAY-us&quot;. Its official pronunciation was then revealed in a [[Pokémon.com]] mailbag as &quot;ARK-ee-us&quot;.<br /> * Arceus's [[base stat]] total is 720, higher than any other Pokémon. {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 680|Previous Pokémon}}, among them {{p|Mewtwo}}, have only had a maximum total of 680.<br /> ** In its base form, Arceus has the highest [[base stat]] in {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.<br /> * Arceus has the highest base [[experience]] yield of all Pokémon, tied with {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}. That means an Arceus would yield 13,933 experience points when defeated if it is at [[level]] 100 and belongs to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.<br /> * The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{type2|???}}. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable, as there is no [[plate]] in the code that can be used for this. It is possible this sprite was programmed in to prevent game crashes caused by tampering with Arceus's type.<br /> * Arceus's signature move, Judgment, is the only move that Arceus is guaranteed [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] for, as it is always the same type as Arceus itself. However, on the battle screen, Judgment is always displayed as a {{type2|Normal}} attack.<br /> * Even though it is said that Arceus created the world with its thousand arms, it is not shown to have any arms at all, nor can it learn hand and arm based moves such as the elemental punches.<br /> * Holding the {{DL|Plate|Sky Plate}}, Arceus is the only Pokémon able to become a pure {{type2|Flying}} outside of battle (other Pokémon can do so in battle through the use of {{m|Conversion}}, {{m|Conversion 2}}, and {{a|Color Change}}).<br /> * With the appropriate [[plate]], Arceus is the only legendary {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Bug}}-, or {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.<br /> * {{m|Earth Power}} is the only move with a fixed base power, besides {{m|Judgment}}, that Arceus learns by level-up which can receive [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] with a plate attached.<br /> * Arceus is the only [[trio master]] not catchable by typical in-game mechanics, instead needing an event item (the [[Azure Flute]]) to be catchable in-game.<br /> ** Furthermore, Arceus is the only trio master of two [[Lake guardians|different]] [[Dragon trio|trios]].<br /> * Arceus is the only Pokémon to never officially receive a [[List of Pokémon by Diamond &amp; Pearl Battle Pokédex number|DPBP number]], although it or one of its forms probably would have been assigned DPBP#532 had that system continued to be used.<br /> * The ring around Arceus's body appears to have a malevolent counterpart in the embodiment of the [[Red Chain]], as a red version of it is shown to ring Dialga and Palkia around the middle when [[Cyrus]] takes control of them in [[DP152]].<br /> * The Arceus event that takes place in HeartGold and SoulSilver includes real life pictures in the game. This is a first for an event within a game and a first in the Pokémon games franchise.<br /> * Arceus can learn all of the [[HM]] moves, including ones which no longer have that status.<br /> ===Origin===<br /> Arceus may be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the {{wp|Qilin}}. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the {{wp|Pangu}}, the Chinese creation deity.<br /> <br /> Arceus may also be inspired by (or a representation of) {{wp|Avalokiteśvara}} who, in {{wp|Buddhism}}, is either pictured with eleven heads and one thousand arms (the latter of which is mentioned in Arceus's flavor text) or in a white four-armed manifestation (which could look similar to Arceus's Normal form). <br /> <br /> Some inspiration may have come from a {{wp|horse}}, because of its Platinum sprite and attack movements in Pokémon Battle Revolution.<br /> <br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Arceus's name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin and Greek for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''. Or Arceus's name which was pronounced as (Arh-keus) maybe a combination of &quot;Arch&quot; and a mispronounced word &quot;Chaos&quot;.<br /> <br /> Arceus's name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'', and is derived from the ancient Greek word for &quot;beginning&quot;, ''arkhē''. It could have also come from the Latin word ''archetypus'' (original). Alternatively, Arceus's name can be seen as a portmanteau of ''Zeus'', the most powerful of Greek gods and ''arch'' (highest).<br /> <br /> Arceus' name is pronounced with a soft &quot;c&quot; by the announcer in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]]; in keeping with its probable name origin, it is pronounced with a hard &quot;c&quot; in television commercials and in ''[[Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> *[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Arceus<br /> *[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Arceus<br /> *[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 아르세우스 ''Arceus''<br /> <br /> &lt;!--==Notes==--&gt;<br /> {{Legendary Pokémon}}<br /> {{event Pokémon}}<br /> <br /> {{PokémonPrevNext | prev=Shaymin|prevnum=492 | next=Bulbasaur|nextnum=001 | type=Arceus }}<br /> {{Project Pokédex notice}}<br /> [[Category:Legendary Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Sinnoh Legendary Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Pokémon with different forms]]<br /> [[Category:Promotion-only Pokémon]]<br /> [[Category:Trio masters]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Arceus]]<br /> [[es:Arceus]]<br /> [[fr:Arceus]]<br /> [[ja:アルセウス]]<br /> [[pt:Arceus (pokémon)]]</div>
