Kyogre (Japanese: カイオーガ Kyogre) is a Water-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
While it is not known to evolve into or from any other pokémon, Kyogre can undergo Primal Reversion and become Primal Kyogre if it holds the Blue Orb.
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 can undergo Primal Reversion and become Primal Kyogre. It retains its general body structure, but it grows larger and its main skin color becomes a darker shade of blue. The red markings along its body become light blue, and its eyes glow yellow with orange irises and orange-red pupils. The markings on its pectoral fins slightly change to form α symbols, which connect to its outer nails with red markings connecting the inner nails. Every part of its skin that was originally white becomes clear and translucent, with the large ovals on its head now connected to clear markings stretching from its tail to its forehead, where another α symbol is formed. The trailing parts of its tail grow longer and gain translucent webbing, and the areas between its pectoral fin markings also become clear. The translucent parts of its body reveal organ-like structures that glow with a mysterious light; it has a large "organ" at the center of its body, two smaller ones aligned with the large oval markings, and two more located in its pectoral fins.
Primal Kyogre is said to be Kyogre's true, original, and fully powered form, having received its name from the ancient people of the Hoenn region who it tormented in the past. The energy that fills it spills forth as seawater, which its body composition is nearly identical to, while its skin glows similarly to that of sapphire. Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon fought each other over the natural energy that was abundant in the primal age millennia ago; one of their clashes lasted for 20 days straight and threatened to disrupt the planet's balance and destroy it before Rayquaza stopped them. Research conducted by the Weather Institute reveals that Primal Kyogre can annihilate all life before resetting the planet. It was formed from the natural primal energy that existed in Hoenn's ancient past, which it has to feed on so it can maintain its transformation in the present day after it was undone by Mega Rayquaza. Due to the lack of natural energy in the surface, it is forced to find either a source underground, such as the crystals in the Cave of Origin, or the Blue Orb, which contains the remaining energy of the primordial world, allowing it to undergo Primal Reversion. With its weather-manipulating powers, Primal Kyogre can summon storms which drastically raise the sea level and outright nullify Fire-type moves rather than simply weaken them. In the Mega Evolution Pokédex Short, it is said to have widened the seas by a large margin simply by taking a swim.
Primal Kyogre is the only known pokémon that can have Primordial Sea as an Ability.
