Cogita (Japanese: コギト Cogito) is a character who appears in Legends: Arceus.

She bears a striking resemblance to Cynthia, but the relationship between them, if any, is unknown.

In the core series

Cogita is a mature woman who lives alone at the Ancient Retreat. She has a vast knowledge of Hisuian lore.

After the player is exiled, Volo guides them to her home. She tells them about an artifact known as the Red Chain that could bind the world together and cause the rift to disappear, and also explains how to obtain the artifact's pieces.

Cogita appears in Jubilife Village later on. She states the village to be of interest and decides to check what the Clothier has to offer.

Post game, Cogita assists once more, telling them where to find the last few plates. It is also revealed she had one of the plates with her the whole time, having been using it as a chopping board. After Volo and Giratina's defeat she appears within the Galaxy Hall, telling the player about the Forces of Nature and advising them to speak with her after completing their Pokédex entries. When the player finishes the task, she tells the rest of the tale, revealing there to be one more of them, summoning Enamorus. After it is captured, Cogita gives the player the Reveal Glass having told them all the tales of Hisui she knows.
