Mesprit(JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is a Psychic legendary Pokémon that made its first appearance in the fourth generation games Diamond and Pearl. It is a part of the Lake guardians trio with Uxie and Azelf.

Physiology and Behaviour[]

Mesprit is a small, gray, fairy-like Pokémon. It has two tails that each have a red jewel encrusted in them. These are, presumably, two of the jewels which comprise the Red Chain. Mesprit has a partially magenta face with four long, drooping appendages and another red gem encrusted in its forehead.

Mesprit is known as "The Being of Emotion". Mesprit's spirit can leave its body without dying and return to the body at will. Legends say that a person that touches it will have their emotions completely drained away. Mesprit is said to have taught humans the ability to feel sorrow, pain, and joy. Though playful, it is a bit mischievous.

Other Pokémon games[]

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness: Mesprit is the guardian of the Time Gear of Quicksand Cave. When the player and the partner first reach the cave, Mesprit attacks them, having been warned by Uxie about someone aiming to steal the Time Gear, which is soon after stolen by Grovyle.

Super Smash Bros. series[]

Mesprit, along with the other legendary trio Pokémon from the fourth generation games, occasionally appear in the background of the Spear Pillar stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. A trophy of Mesprit was also present in the game. The following is Mesprit's trophy description in Super Smash Bros. Brawl:

Trophy descriptions[]

"An Emotion Pokémon said to have taught humans emotions. Rumor is, if you touch Mesprit, you'll lose all emotions three days later. It sleeps a the base of Lake Verity, but once engaged in battle, it will rise from the water to fly around the Sinnoh region. Even if you see this Pokémon after your initial meeting, it'll try to flee battle, so catching it is quite a task."
