The same English name but a different Japanese name refers to the transformed version of a Pokémon: '''Primal Reversion''' (Japanese: '''ゲンシカイキのすがた''' ''Primal Regression Form''), which appears as the name of this form of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} in the [[Pokédex]], including in [[Pokémon HOME]]. | The same English name but a different Japanese name refers to the transformed version of a Pokémon: '''Primal Reversion''' (Japanese: '''ゲンシカイキのすがた''' ''Primal Regression Form''), which appears as the name of this form of {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} in the [[Pokédex]], including in [[Pokémon HOME]]. | ||
Pokémon that have undergone Primal Reversion are distinguished by the title-case word "'''Primal'''" in front of their species name: '''Primal {{p|Kyogre}}''' and '''Primal {{p|Groudon}}'''. Each of them is as a '''primal form''' or '''primal state''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|原始|げんし}}の{{ruby|姿|すがた}}''' ''primal form''), written in lowercase. | |||
Primal Reversion is said to restore a Pokémon's true powers as it absorbs the energy of nature to greatly increase its power. Primal Reversion has been absent from the [[core series]] as of [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], however it still appears in [[spin-off]] games and other media such as [[Pokémon GO]]. | Primal Reversion is said to restore a Pokémon's true powers as it absorbs the energy of nature to greatly increase its power.
