[[File:718Zygarde-Cell.png|thumb|150px|A Zygarde Cell]]
A '''Zygarde Cell''' (Japanese: '''ジガルデ・セル''' ''Zygarde Cell'') is a cell-like component of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Zygarde}}, making up the majority of its body. On their own, they have no will and little power, but by acting at the direction of a [[Zygarde Core]], they can assemble Zygarde's different forms.

==Biology==
Zygarde Cells are small, green, cell-like blobs that resemble a {{wp|planarian}} and are almost indistinguishable from a [[Zygarde Core]]. Their bodies are gelatinous, semitranslucent, and can be segmented into three sections: a large, round head, an abdomen with a colored hexagon, and a stubby tail. They have two eyes, though one is larger and has a green pupil, and are most commonly seen lying down, though they can stand on their tail. Embedded inside their abdomen, there is a green hexagon.

On its own, a Cell does not have the power to battle, needing to assemble with Cores and other Cells in order to take action. Unlike Cores, Cells are described as lacking any sort of will and can only act in accordance to a Core's orders.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygardes-cores-and-cells/ Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon | Zygarde's Cores and Cells] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20160814031551/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygardes-cores-and-cells/ archive])</ref> For this purpose, they can even be used in [[move]]s, such as {{m|Thousand Arrows}} and {{m|Thousand Waves}}, before being recalled into Zygarde's body. It is stated by [[Lysandre|L]] that Cells and Cores are able to absorb the power present in far-off [[region]]s.<ref>[[Lysandre|L]]: ''"When Zygarde used up its strength protecting Pokémon from the light of ultimate weapon... its parts scattered to far-off places, absorbing the power of those lands and seeking humans who would give it aid."'' ({{g|Legends: Z-A}})</ref>

As depicted throughout {{aniseries|XY}}, Zygarde Cells have the ability to turn invisible and fly, though the latter is only seen when assembling Zygarde. Moreover, they can act as the eyes for a Core and, as seen to {{aniseries|HZ}}, transmit what they see to anyone Zygarde wishes to. This series also implies Cells can have some degree of will of their own, unlike in the {{pkmn|games}}. Unlike other forms of media, ''Pokémon Horizons: The Series'' also depicts Zygarde Cells having a {{Shiny}} coloration, with a darker mint-green hue and a more yellow tint to the eyes.

==In the core series games==
When Zygarde changes into its Complete Forme via {{A|Power Construct}}, Zygarde Cells appear merging with Zygarde, depicted as green hexagons, as opposed to [[Zygarde Core|Cores]] which are depicted as red hexagons. Cells also appear when Zygarde uses {{M|Thousand Arrows}} and {{M|Thousand Waves}}, being sent out as green hexagons before returning to Zygarde. 

===Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon===
[[File:Key Zygarde Cell Sprite.png|thumb|100px|A Zygarde Cell in {{g|Sun and Moon}}]]
Zygarde Cells can be found all around the [[Alola]] [[region]] in {{g|Sun and Moon}}. Upon receiving the [[Zygarde Cube]] from [[Dexio]] in [[Heahea City]], the {{player}} is tasked with collecting all 95 Cells and five Cores spread throughout the region. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, Zygarde Cells and Zygarde Cores are not directly collectable as they were in Sun and Moon, as the player is given a Zygarde Cube already filled with 40 Cells and a 10% Forme Zygarde from Dexio; the remaining 50% can be obtained by separating other Zygarde from [[Resolution Cave]] with the [[Reassembly Unit]]. Like in Sun and Moon, a Zygarde can be dissembled to gain more cells, including those [[transfer]]red. The player can instead collect 100 [[Totem Sticker]]s, replacing the 95 Cells and 5 Cores.

====Locations====
In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, a total of 95 Cells can be collected. Some of the Cells are not visible to the {{player}}, such as the ones on [[Melemele Island]] until they are given the Zygarde Cube by Dexio. Many of them are also tied to the [[time]] of day the game is currently at.

The locations of all the Cells in Pokémon Sun and Moon are below:

=====[[Melemele Island]]=====
These Cells will only appear after the player has obtained the [[Zygarde Cube]] from [[Dexio]] in [[Akala Island]]'s [[Heahea City]].

===Pokémon Legends: Z-A===
[[File:Legends Z-A Zygarde Cell.png|thumb|right|150px|A Zygarde Cell in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}]]
{{spoilers}}
Zygarde Cells appear fully modeled and capable of independent movement. As the {{player}} arrives in [[Lumiose City]] by train, a Cell jumps inside their travel bag and later exits the bag once they arrive at [[Hotel Z]]. At this time, only [[AZ]] sees it emerge and muses about whether the player was chosen by destiny for Lumiose's sake. The Cell remains at the hotel for the majority of the game, observing the player as the story progresses. During [[Jacinthe]]'s tournament at [[Hotel Richissime]], Zygarde crashes the event and challenges the player; unlike its previous challenge in its 10% Forme, Cells and Cores this time stream into the building to assemble Zygarde's 50% Forme before battle commences. At the climax of the game, [[Lysandre|L]] reveals that he had been collecting the missing Cells and Cores in the five years since the events of X and Y but he is missing the last Cell, which ends up being the very same Cell that the player has been accompanied by since the beginning of the game; the last Cell merges with its fellows to manifest Zygarde's Complete Forme.

===Pokémon GO===
In {{g|GO}}, after obtaining the Zygarde Cube, Zygarde Cells can be obtained by following {{GO|Route}}s. The first time an individual Route is followed each day, a green glimmer can appear near the end of the Route, which the player can tap on to collect 1-3 Zygarde Cells (previously, the glimmer could replace any of the Route-specific spawns that appear roughly every 500 meters). Up to 3 Zygarde Cells can be collected each day (Cells that appear but are not collected do not count toward this limit), and the Zygarde Cube can store up to 300 Cells at once. 50 Zygarde Cells are needed to change Zygarde from its 10% Forme to its 50% Forme, and 200 more are needed to change it from its 50% Forme to its Complete Forme.

===Pokémon Masters EX===
In {{g|Masters EX}}, Zygarde Cells appear in [[Verdant Guardian]]. 10 must be collected from other story areas in order to unlock the ''Guardian of the Ecosystem'' story area. They are pieces of {{mas|Serena}}'s Zygarde.

==In animation==
[[File:Zygarde Cells anime.png|thumb|250px|A Zygarde Cell in {{aniseries|XY}}]]
===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|XY}}====
Zygarde Cells first appeared in ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', appearing in [[Lysandre Labs]] alongside a [[Zygarde Core]]. They have since appeared throughout the [[List of Pokémon the Series: XY episodes#XY&Z|XYZ arc]], usually assisting the Zygarde Cores [[Squishy]] and [[Z2]] in monitoring the [[Kalos]] [[region]] and achieving the {{fd|Zygarde|three different forms}} of {{p|Zygarde}} to defend themselves, their friends, and the ecosystem.
{{-}}

[[File:White Zygarde Cell.png|thumb|left|250px|A {{Shiny}} Zygarde Cell in {{aniseries|HZ}}]]
===''Pokémon Horizons: The Series''===
Shiny Zygarde Cells first appeared in a flashback in ''[[HZ075|The Wonders of the World!]]'', where [[Gibeon]]'s [[White Zygarde|Zygarde]] sent out many of its Cells in an attempt to seal a mass of [[Laquium]] against its {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s orders. The Cells were blown away when the Laquium mass rapidly expanded, leaving their fate unknown. In ''[[HZ083|The Truth Revealed!]]'', [[Hamber]] was shown to be holding onto one that had grown attached to him. In the same episode, it was revealed that the other Zygarde Cells survived and were left behind in [[Laqua]]. 

In ''[[HZ087|Guided by the Black Rayquaza!]]'', Zygarde returned to Laqua and reunited with its Cells, regaining its 50% Forme. It was also revealed that it had been using its Cells around the world to make sure the Laquium hadn't affected the Pokémon's ecosystem. After its battle against [[Liko]], [[Roy]], [[Dot]], and [[Amethio]] in ''[[HZ088|The Earthshaking White Zygarde]]'', it chose to leave Gibeon behind, scattering into Cells and disappearing.

In ''[[HZ092|Following Traces of Laquium]]'', Hamber entrusted his Zygarde Cell and a [[Zygarde Cube]] to [[Zirc]] and [[Onia]] so they could gather them all and find Amethio. In ''[[HZ104|Charcadet's Wish]]'', the two passed this mission to Amethio, who vowed to defeat [[Spinel]]. By ''[[HZ111|Better, Farther, Stronger!]]'', enough Cells had been gathered for Zygarde to regain its 10% Forme. In ''[[HZ125|Battle for the Six Heroes!]]'', Zygarde was seen gathering and shedding Cells while changing between 10% Forme and 50% Forme in {{pkmn|battle}}.

In [[HZ134]], Amethio used the Zygarde Cube to summon the Cells he had collected and the ones Zygarde had left behind at Laqua upon leaving Gibeon, allowing Zygarde to assume its Complete Forme. Once Pagogo had purified the Laquium mist, Zygarde turned back into its 10% Forme to have its Cells carry the wounded Pokémon away to safety.

==In the manga==
[[File:Zygarde Cell Adventures.png|125px|thumb|Zygarde Cells in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
Zygarde Cells debut in ''[[PS586|Zygarde Appears]]'', where they're sucked into {{adv|Zygarde}} in the form of "green, squishy things", however, [[Emma|Essentia]] assumes it is simply absorbing power through the natural world, which allowed them to catch it. They appear once again in ''[[PS593|Xerneas Gives]]'', where Zygarde absorbs them again before splitting up after [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} return to their slumber.

===={{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}====
A Zygarde Cell debuted ''[[PASM18|Confusion and Monsters from Another World]]'', where [[Dexio]] and [[Sina]] hired {{adv|Sun}} to gather the Zygarde Cells and [[Zygarde Core|Cores]] scattered around Alola in a [[Zygarde Cube]]. They have since appeared throughout the Arc, usually assisting Sun and his Cores in achieving the {{form|Zygarde|three different forms}} of {{p|Zygarde}}.
