Reshiram (Japanese: レシラム Reshiram) is a dual-type Dragon/Fire Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

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

Reshiram is the game mascot of Pokémon Black, appearing on the boxart.

Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem are often collectively referred to as the Tao trio by fans. The group is referred to in the myths and legends of the Unova region.

Reshiram fuses with Kyurem using the DNA Splicers to become White Kyurem.

Biology

Reshiram in Overdrive mode

Reshiram is a white, bipedal Pokémon with draconic, avian, and mammalian traits. A long, voluminous wispy mane streams out from the upper side of the snout and outwards from its head. The top of this mane is adorned with two protrusions resembling ears. Reshiram's face is fringed with spiky features, and it has a small, pointed extension below the chin. Its eyes have blue irises and black pupils. There are two pairs of pointed teeth visible when its mouth is open, one in the upper jaw and one in the lower.

Reshiram has a long and slender neck, with a fluffy, collar-like protrusion jutting out of two gray, glass-like neckbands. Its arms begin slender and arm-like but then flare into a more wing-like appearance, sporting four claws resembling hands on the leading edge. There are plates at the back of Reshiram's "hands", that sport a similar color to its neck rings. Reshiram has a feathered or furry feature on its chest, with the lower portion protruding outwards to a point. Long feather-like protrusions jut out of its thighs. On its feet are large gray claws, three at the front and one positioned at the back, resembling high heels. Reshiram's tail is a mass of plume and ribbon-like extensions, surrounded by two large bands, similar to the ones around its neck. When its emotions surge, it enters Overdrive mode, and its tail lights up with a fiery glow.

Reshiram has a jet engine-like tail, which it uses to accelerate itself when flying at high speeds. It can send flames from its tail into the air to incinerate everything around it. By flaring its tail, Reshiram can move the world's atmosphere and change the weather. This tail generator is also activated when influenced by either Fusion Bolt or Bolt Strike, which in turn powers up Reshiram's own Fusion Flare or Blue Flare, its signature moves. Reshiram loves Reshiram Treats made by Snacksworth, who once encountered it in the past.

In Unova mythology, Reshiram sided with the older brother who sought the truth. As a result, it firmly believes in truth. Reshiram is said to be Zekrom's equal in battle, meaning neither of the two dragons can truly defeat the other. Both are powerful enough to destroy the region they reside in. Reshiram can transform into the Light Stone should its body get destroyed or by Kyurem's tendril-like appendages. It can willingly transform back from said stone when awakened by a hero who believes in truth. According to one myth, Reshiram is said to burn down kingdoms of people who ignore truth due to being consumed by greed.

Reshiram is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Blue Flare by leveling up.

Reshiram and White Kyurem are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Fusion Flare by leveling up. Reshiram and White Kyurem are also the only known Pokémon that can have Turboblaze as an Ability.
