There are plenty of anime series that have become part of the mainstream, but Pokémon has resonated with audiences on a whole other level. The Pokémon video game series and its wealth of spin-offs are all very popular, but Pokémon’s success as an anime has also been enormous and the series has been running for decades and for over 1000 episodes across the various anime. The Pokémon anime has also expanded into a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:number of feature films, many of which have become showcases for brand new Pokémon.

Latios and Latias are two Legendary Pokémon that are introduced in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Generation III titles, but don’t make their first anime appearances until the fifth film, Pokémon Heroes. Latios and Latias are twoౠ Dragon- and Psychic-Type Pokémon that are powerful, but use their skills more in a defensive manner that looks after the condition of the world around them. The Pokémon can refract light in a way that keeꦗps them hidden as well as communicate telepathically, but their Sight Sharing skill can literally put thoughts in people’s heads and make a strong impression as a result.

9 Deoxys (Pokémon: Destiny Deoxys) 🌟

Destiny Deoxys is the seventh Pokémon film and while it gives a lot of attention to the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:rampaging nature of Rayquaza, in the end it's actually D🌃eoxys that's the more powerful of the Legendary Pokémon. Deoxys is one of the few creatures that are extraterrestrial in nature and still largely a mystery. Deoxys' main advantage is that it can switch between four forms, each of which prioritizes a different battle stat. This makes Deoxys extremely versatile, especially when combined with the Pokémon’s extreme intelligence. Deoxys doesn't like to turn to an offensive assault, but it can when it's necessary.

8 Zekrom And Reshiram (Pokémon The Movie: Black—Vꦇictini And Reshiram And White—Victini And 🐽Zekrom)

Reshiram and Zekrom are two powerful Legendary Pokémon that represent truth and ideals respectively, while the former functions as a gigantic boiler and the other works like a living generator. Victini is the lynchpin of the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Black and White Pokémon movies, but it’s the Legendary Pok💜émon around it that are more dangerous.

These two Pokémon wield such powerful elements that Reshiram's fire can literally change the world's weathe🥃r and Zekrom's electricity can fill the sky with lightning. These Pokémon are only dangerous to the corrupt and lost, but they're still ultimate tools of destruction, albeit ones governed by Kyurem.

7 💜 Volcanion (Pokémon The Movie: Volcanion And The Mechanical Marvel)

The 19th Pokémon film, Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel, shines the spotlight on Generation VI’s Volcanion, a volatile creature that’s an extremely rare mix of contrasting Water- 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:and Fire-Types. Volcanion efficiently combines his abilities to create steam that’s so powerful that it can destroy mountains. A master of stealth, V♋olcanion shouldn’t be underestimated and the Pokémon typically doesn’t appear unless it’s ready to defend its territory. Volcanion’s explosive attitude turns the Pokémon into a ticking time bomb of sorts and a creature that could destroy the Kalos region with minimal effort.

6 🎃 Genesect (Pokémon The Movie: Genesect And The Legend Awakened)

It's not often that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bug-Type Pokémon make up some of the strongest fighters, but Genesect is a powerful exception from Generation V that's also a Steel-Type. Genesect plays a major role in the 16th Pokémon film, Genesect and the Legend Awakened, which explores the Pokémon’s roots as a proficient hunter from hundreds of millions of years ago. It was the apex predator of its time and Genesect is already equipped with cannons and a deadly a🐼rsenal, but Team Plasma revives the Pokémon and makes it even stronger through experimental enhancements.

Kyurem is a dangerous Legendary Pokémon from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Unova region that's linked to both Zek🤪rom and Reshiram, but Kyurem puts both of the powerful beasts to shame. Kyurem is a Dragon- and Ice-Type Pokémon that some say descended to Earth from a come🥀t.

Kyurem asserts its power in Kyurem vs. The Sword of Justice with its intense ice abilities, but also its dominion over Reshiram and Zekrom. It can will them ♋out of their forms and back into Light and Dark Stones, on🃏ly to then absorb their energy and become even stronger.

4 🐲 Mewtwo (Pokémon: The First Movie) ♕

The Pokémon series has come a long way since the original video games, but there are still elements from them that strongly resonate. Mewtwo is the first real Legendary Pokémon threat and it’s why it’s become the focus of not just Pokémon: The First Movie, but 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:other major events in the anime series. Mewtwo is one of the most powerful and aggressive Psychic-Type Pokémon who is only turn🉐ed more hostile from how it’s been the constant subject of experi꧑mentation. Mewtwo develops a harsh disdain for both humans and Pokémon and its advanced psychic skills make it hard to defend against.

3 🥃 Yveltal (Pokémon The Movie: Diancie And The Cocoon Of Destruction)

The Pokémon movies love to showcase 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:new Legendary Pokémon, but Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction experiments with the Aura Trio, which are all strong, but it's Yveltal who outranks its counterparts, Xerneas ꧃and Zygarde. Yveltal is a Dark- and Flying-Type Pokémon who is practically the personification of destruction. The rest of the Aura Trio focuses on life and balance, but Yveltal consumes the life force of others and when it passes on, it commits a final coup where it robs the energy of everything around it to enter hibernation.

Giratina, Dialga, and Palkia, otherwise known as the Creation Trio, are three Legendary Pokémon that first debut in the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Generation IV games, but don’t show up until the 11th Pokémon movie, Giratina & the Sky Warrior. The film explores that Giratina, Dialga, and Palkia were staffed with the creation of space, time, anti-matter, and the universe as a whole. This means that not only are these Pokémon strong, but they can literally warp reality. Giratina is the most aggressive and volatile of the trio, which i༒s why it's been locꦆked away in the Distortion World. It's just too dangerous.

Arceus is basically viewed as the God of the Pokémon world and the being that’s responsible for all creation. Nothing comes before Arceus and the mythical Pokémon is also responsible for creating other groups of powerful Legendary Pokémon, like the Creation Trio and the Lake Guardians. Arceus can singlehandedly ward off all of these Pokémon and it has the rare ability to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:become any Pokémon type that it desires. It would be foolish to try to take on Arceus, but the film Arceus and the Jewel of Life explains why the Po🌟kémon’s existence is important.
