Rei (Japanese: テル Teru) is the male player character of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and acts as a non-playable character in the same game if the player chooses to play as his female counterpart, Akari. He is a member of the Galaxy Team's Survey Corps.

He bears a striking resemblance to Lucas of the modern day, but the relationship between the two, if any, is unknown.

In the core series

As the protagonist

Rei falls from the sky into the land of Hisui after meeting Arceus, who tells him to seek out all Pokémon. A stranger to the land and wearing odd clothes, he meets Professor Laventon who invites him to join the Survey Corps of Jubilife Village as a way of obtaining food and shelter. The Survey Corps also wish to fill out the Pokédex, and so after proving himself worthy Rei is admitted into their ranks.

As part of her duties, he is commanded by Kamado to seek out the recently frenzied Noble Pokémon and quell their frenzy. After all of them are quelled, the rift in the sky that caused the frenzies has not yet closed, and so he is expelled from Jubilife Village on suspicion. He meets with Cogita and the merchant Volo, and with their guidance seeks out the Lake guardians to obtain the Red Chain. With the Chain, he is able to catch Dialga/Palkia (depending on if the player chose the Diamond or Pearl clan, respectively), and face the other legendary Pokémon in battle. Once defeated, the rift is closed and the people of Jubilife Village celebrate.

Afterwards, Rei collects the Plates with Volo and Cogita's help. Once seventeen have been collected (all types save for the Spooky Plate), he meets with Volo atop Mt. Coronet, where it is revealed that Volo's consorting with Giratina was the cause of the rift. He attacks Rei in an attempt to take the Plates for himself. After being defeated, he gives Rei the Spooky Plate, allowing him to obtain the Azure Flute.
