Elgyem was found by Professor Icarus in the forest near his house. It was nursed back to health but was timid and afraid of Icarus at first. It later formed a strong bond with the professor and decided to live with him. It has a habit of giving people visions from the future of impending doom to help prevent the accident from happening.

Elgyem's known moves are Teleport and Telekinesis.

Trivia

  • Professor Icarus may be named after Icarus from the myth Daedalus and Icarus. It might be because they both specialize in flying.
