Uxie (Japanese: ユクシー Yuxie) is a Template:Type2 legendary Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Uxie is the first member of the lake guardians, the Sinnoh region's Template:Type2 legendary Pokémon trio.

Biology

Physiology

Uxie is a small, gray, fairy-like Pokémon with two gray tails that are each encrusted with a red gem. These are, presumably, two of the jewels which make up the Red Chain. Uxie has a partially yellow face with another red gem encrusted into its forehead. Uxie's head faintly resembles that of a helmet or a human brain.

Uxie always has its eyes closed due to the fact that it can wipe out the memory of those who look in its eyes.

Gender differences

Uxie is genderless.

Special abilities

Uxie's spirit can leave its body without dying. It's spirit can return to the body at will. It can wipe out the memory of those whose eyes come in contact with its eyes. In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness, it is shown that Uxie can also create an illusion. Uxie is also the most intelligent of all Pokémon, having created all knowledge in the Pokémon universe. It was also shown in DP151 and DP152 that Uxie has the ability to teleport itself, as well as other Pokémon and humans.

Behavior

Uxie is a very shy Pokémon but will attack with force if it or the other two members of the lake guardians are threatened.

Habitat

Uxie lives in Lake Acuity.

Uxie in the anime

A statue and silhouette of Uxie appeared in A Secret Sphere of Influence!.

Uxie's "soul" appeared to Brock, much in the same way those of Mesprit and Azelf appeared to Dawn and Ash, in Uncrushing Defeat!

Uxie appeared in its physical form in DP151, where it, along with Mesprit, came to Lake Valor after Azelf was captured. However, it was also captured by J and Team Galactic, but before it was captured, it used Future Sight with Mesprit, destroying her ship later on. It was then controlled by the team to help fulfill its goal. In DP152, after breaking from their control with the help of Brock's Croagunk and Ash's Gliscor, it helped in stopping Cyrus's plot to use Dialga and Palkia.

In the manga

Pokémon Adventures

Platinum is sent to guard Uxie from Team Galactic. She was chosen because, fittingly, she is very knowledgeable when compared to the calm Diamond or the hyper Pearl.
