'''Koraidon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コライドン''' ''Koraidon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Dragon}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IX]].
While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it appears to be an ancient relative of {{p|Cyclizar}}. Koraidon has 5 [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Koraidon and Miraidon|different forms]] when it travels the [[Paldea]] region or adapts to a situation.
*'''Limited Build''' when it has little power.
*'''Sprinting Build''' when traveling on land.
*'''Swimming Build''' when traveling in the water.
*'''Gliding Build''' when traveling in the skies.
*'''Apex Build''' during battle and full strength.
Koraidon is the [[game mascot]] appearing on the box art of {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet}}. It is a [[Paradox Pokémon]], also known as the "Winged King"<!--, and a member of the [[Legendary duo|]] along with {{p|Miraidon}}-->.
==Biology==
Apex Build Koraidon is a large reptilian Pokémon. Most of its body is scarlet in color, with white accents on its cheeks, abdomen, legs, and tail. Its head features a large plume and a pair of long, thin, twisted antennae; its rear has a similar, much larger plume. These plumes and antennae are white in color, and blue-purple at the base. It has yellow eyes with brown pupils, webbed feet, and blue features on its elbows and shoulders, as well as blue frills running down its neck. On its chest is a large circular protrusion which resembles a rubber tire. Its texture and black coloration is similar to the base of its tail, and it can inflate or deflate as needed.
Limited Build Koraidon walks on all four. The head and rear plumes are closed and folded. The chest throat is pulled in, leaving out the rubber tire-like protrusion. The membrane on all four legs disappear in this form. Koraidon assumes this form either when weakened or not battling. It remains in this form, unless it needs change and adapt.
Koraidon has the ability to change its form in order to facilitate travel. Sprinting Build Koraidon tucks in its tail and runs on all fours, moving at very fast speeds using its powerful legs. This form also allows Koraidon to climb cliffs. Swimming Build Koraidon can float in the water by turning its throat into a flotation device and using the membrane between its feet to swim. Gliding Build Koraidon can fly by unravelling its twisted tendrils into wings, allowing it to glide through the sky.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/legendary_pokemon/ Legendary Pokémon — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>
Koraidon was brought to the current era through a time machine created by [[Professor Sada]] but different from the other [[Paradox Pokémon]]. She was capable of only bringing two of them, and also the one who coined Koraidon's name. Koraidon is known as the ''Winged King'' and said to be a burlier and more ferocious ancestor of {{p|Cyclizar}}. It is powerful enough to break the land with just its bare fists.
Koraidon is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Collision Course}}.

==Trivia==
* Koraidon and {{p|Miraidon}} are the only [[Paradox Pokémon]] whose names follow regular Pokémon naming conventions.
** Additionally, they’re the only Paradox Pokémon to each have their own unique abilities.
===Origin===
Koraidon may be based on lizards, most notably the {{wp|Dactyloidae|anole}} and the genera ''{{wp|Sitana}}'' and ''{{wp|Sarada (lizard)|Sarada}}'' — the latter two are collectively known as fan-throated lizards. It also has traits from other lizard species, namely the frills of the {{wp|iguana}}, the feet of the {{wp|gecko}}, and the prehensile tail of the {{wp|chameleon}}. It also has traits of {{wp|dinosaur}}s; its feathers may be a reference to {{wp|feathered dinosaur}}s, while its bipedal stance in its Apex Build is reminiscent of {{wp|theropod}} dinosaurs. Furthermore, its signature move of {{m|Collision Course}} alludes to the asteroid that caused the {{wp|Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event}}, which eliminated most dinosaur species on Earth. Some elements of its design may be based on parts of a motorcycle: its antennae and shoulders are similar to handlebars, and the protrusion on its chest together with its tail resemble rubber tires, the latter especially when curled.
====Name origin====
Koraidon may be a combination of 古来 ''korai'' (ancient), ライド ''raido'' (ride), ''dragon'', ''don'' (Spanish for lord), and ''-don'' (common suffix in dinosaur names derived from the Ancient Greek word for tooth).
