Along with Groudon and Rayquaza, Kyogre is one of the super-ancient Pokémon.
Kyogre is the game mascot of pokémon Sapphire Version and its remake, pokémon Alpha Sapphire, appearing on the boxart of both games in its normal form and Primal state, respectively. In these games, as well as in pokémon Emerald Version, Kyogre is sought by Team Aqua as a major part of their plot to expand the world's waters.
Kyogre is a massive, whale-like pokémon with two big pectoral fins, each with four white square-shaped nails. It has a deep blue body and a white chin area with two small spikes protruding under it. Above each eye are two white, oval-shaped spots. Kyogre has red stripes around its chin, eyes, dorsal fins, and torso. These stripes glow when Kyogre is brimming with power. It has a short, pointed tail. Near the tail are two small back fins tattered with four trailing parts, with the inner ones being smaller than the outer. Its eyes are small, yellow, and shadowed with black.
Kyogre is believed to be the personification of the sea itself, and is described in legends and myths as the "maker of oceans" who created the world's oceans and expanded them by generating heavy tidal waves. It is also capable of summoning intense rainstorms to cloak the world's entire sky and weaken Fire-type moves; because of this, it was hailed as a savior for quenching areas of the world plagued with droughts. As a super-ancient Pokémon, it is one of the longest-lived species, thought to have lived for thousands of years. Kyogre can fly when there is no water for it to swim in. Though normally a calm and helpful pokémon, in olden times, it encountered its rival, Groudon, and for years, the two engaged in a cataclysmic battle for dominion of the world. They were stopped by the intervention of Rayquaza, who sealed Kyogre within Seafloor Cavern, where it has since slumbered in the marine trench. During its sleep, Kyogre's body is encased in a layer of rock that will be shattered once it is awakened by the Red or Blue Orb. It lives in the sea. Kyogre loves Kyogre Treats made by Snacksworth, who once encountered it in the past. As seen with Hyperspace Primordial Sea, Kyogre's subconcious takes the appearance of the Cave of Origin.
Kyogre is the only known pokémon capable of learning the move Origin Pulse. Prior to Generation V, Drizzle was its signature Ability.
