Celebi (Japanese: セレビィ Celebi) is a dual-type Psychic/Grass legendary Pokémon.

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

It serves as the guardian of Ilex Forest and is only able to be caught from the wild in Pokémon Crystal with an event activated by the GS Ball.

Celebi is the last Pokémon in the Johto Pokédex and Hoenn Pokédex, although in the latter, Celebi is not shown.

Biology

Physiology

Celebi is a green fairy-like creature. Celebi has round toe-less feet, three-fingered hands, and clear wings on its back. Celebi has a round head that comes to a point and sticks upward in the back. It has large baby-blue eyes, similar to that of Mew, with thick black rings around them, and a pair of green antennae that are tipped blue.

Gender differences

Celebi is genderless.

Special abilities

Celebi's main ability is the power to travel through time. Celebi also can restore plants to perfect health (an ability that is also accredited to Meganium). Celebi mainly attacks with surprisingly powerful Grass and Psychic attacks. Celebi can also levitate, although it does not possess the Levitate Ability. Celebi has also been shown to have the power of bringing dead Celebi back to life.

Behavior

Celebi, like Mew, is a very playful species in general. Celebi are extremely powerful despite their small size, another trait they have in common with Mew. Celebi can also be very timid, not wanting to show themselves despite their power. Although multiple Celebi have been seen at one time, it is unknown if they are different individuals or the same Celebi from different time periods. Therefore, it is virtually impossible to determine exactly how many Celebi exist. Celebi is also very protective of itself, its home, and the Pokémon living in it. For this reason, it has been referred to by some as the "Voice of the Forest".

Habitat

Because Celebi travels through time, it may inhabit many places. However, Celebi is generally associated with forests. Because of this, it is known as the spirit and voice of the forest.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Celebi feed on berries.

In the anime

Major appearances

Celebi (M04)

Celebi first appeared in Celebi: Voice of the Forest. A Pokémon hunter was after it and Celebi traveled 40 years into future to escape from him, taking young Sam along with it accidentally. The Iron-Masked Marauder eventually captured the time traveling Pokémon in a Dark Ball and used it to destroy the forest. Ash and Sam managed to snap Celebi out of the Iron Masked Marauder's control.

Celebi (M13)

Celebi appeared in a central role again in Zoroark: Master of Illusions. Grings Kodai was after the Pokémon in order to restore his ability to see the future, which he got on a previous encounter with it. It befriended Zorua and helped save Zoroark after she was mortally injured by Kodai.

Other

Celebi also made an appearance in Pokémon Chronicles. In Celebi and Joy, Celebi took Ritchie back in time to help stop the destruction of a Pokémon Center.

In The Green Guardian, the Pokémon Ranger Solana accompanied Ash and his friends in helping the Pokémon.

Minor appearances

A Celebi made a brief cameo in the opening of Jirachi: Wish Maker and Destiny Deoxys.

A Celebi appeared in the boss fantasy of A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!.

Celebi makes a cameo appearance in the beginning of The Rise of Darkrai.

A Celebi appeared in another fantasy in An Egg Scramble!.

Pokédex entries

Episode Pokémon Source Entry
AG155 Celebi May's Pokédex Celebi, the Time Travel Pokémon. Celebi wanders across time as guardian of the forest. Wherever it appears, trees and grass flourish.

In the manga

Celebi in Pokémon Adventures

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

In Pokémon Adventures, Pryce aimed to capture Celebi and use its time-traveling powers to save his two Lapras, which he had lost years ago prior to the start of the GSC saga. He failed numerous times throughout his reign (lacking a GS Ball that would allow him to properly capture it), and would injure himself on each day of the month in which Celebi would show itself in the Ilex shrine, so Green and Silver took this opportunity to steal his Rainbow Wing and Silver Wing items and escape.

Near the end of the RS Saga, Ruby is revealed to have a Celebi. He explains that due to the lack of information he had on it, he rarely uses Celebi at all. Celebi was used to retrieve the Red and Blue Orbs from Maxie and Archie, to prevent them from ever controlling Groudon and Kyogre again. Then, it revived Norman, Steven, and Courtney by sending them through an altered future. It left Ruby's side right afterwards, and upon waking up two days later and glancing into the now-empty Poké Ball that once contained the time-traveling Pokémon, Ruby realizes that this was the reason Celebi was with him the whole time.

In the TCG

Main article: Celebi (TCG)

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. Melee

When a Poké Ball is thrown, there is a 1 in 251 chance of Celebi appearing after all these requirements have been fulfilled:

  • Unlock all 25 characters
  • Unlock all 29 stages
  • Beat all 51 events
  • Unlock the score display (by reaching 5000 KOs)

It does not affect the battle but the thrower of the Poké Ball will earn a bonus and trophy of Celebi.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

When a Poké Ball is thrown, there is a 1 in 493 chance of Celebi appearing. Like the other "secret" Pokémon, it drops collectible items; in Celebi's case, it drops trophies.

Melee trophy information

Celebi has the power to travel through time, and thus wanders from one age to the next. It is considered a deity by the forests: plants and trees are said to grow in unimaginable abundance wherever Celebi visits. Like Mew, Celebi is a Pokémon shrouded in mystery. Its special techniques blend grass and psychic powers.

Brawl trophy information

"A Time Travel Pokémon. Celebi can travel throughout time and inhabit multiple places simultaneously. It is said that it appears only during times of peace, greeted by a flourishing of grass and trees. Two turns after Celebi uses its Future Sight move, the foe is bombarded with psychic energy. This proves to have a devastating impact on any Pokémon."

Trivia

Origin

Celebi has a natural theme.[1] Celebi might be related to nature worship of Shintoism. It may be based on a fairy, dryad, or the kodama. Its fierce protectiveness for its forest home resembles that of the Curupira. It may have been based on the Dr. Seuss story, The Lorax. The story is about a small creature, known as the Lorax, who spoke for the trees and tried to protect them as well as the environment from being destroyed by industrialization.

Name origin

Celebi may be a combination of celestial and being, or it may be a combination of serenity and 美 bi (beauty). Alternatively, it may derive from cerebral (referring to its psychic powers), celery (referring to its Grass typing), or Cybele (an earth goddess).
