Kyogre Primal is a Legendary Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

Type: Water

Abilities:

• Primordial Sea (exclusive to Primal Kyogre): Changes the weather to heavy rain, which nullifies all Fire-type moves and prevents weather changes until Kyogre Primal leaves the field.

Physical Characteristics:

• A massive, whale-like Pokémon with a predominantly blue body and white underbelly
• Distinctive red markings on its body that glow when it undergoes Primal Reversion
• Large pectoral fins with four white square-shaped "fingers"
• Glowing yellow eyes and a broad mouth
• Its body is streamlined for swimming through the ocean

Behavior and Habitat:

• Known to dwell in the deepest parts of the ocean
• Said to have the power to expand the seas, as described in ancient mythology
• Often associated with heavy rainfall and storms
• Typically solitary, rarely seen by humans

In Battle:

• Possesses high Special Attack and Special Defense stats
• Signature move: Origin Pulse, a powerful Water-type attack that hits all adjacent opponents
• Strong against Fire, Ground, and Rock types thanks to its Water typing and Primordial Sea ability
• Vulnerable to Electric and Grass-type moves
• Best used in a team that can capitalize on its weather-setting ability

Evolution:

• Primal Kyogre is not an evolution per se but a form change that occurs when Kyogre holds the Blue Orb, reverting it to its ancient form.
• This form change is temporary and only occurs during battle.

Interesting Facts:

• Primal Reversion is a process similar to Mega Evolution, exclusive to Kyogre and its counterpart, Groudon.
• The design of Kyogre Primal is inspired by the Leviathan, a mythical sea creature.
• In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Kyogre plays a central role in the storyline, where its power is sought after by Team Aqua.
• Kyogre Primal's heavy rain ability is a strategic asset in competitive battles, often forming the cornerstone of rain-based teams.
