Celebi (Japanese: セレビィ Celebi) is a Legendary Psychic/Grass-type Pokémon, first appearing in Generation II. It has only been officially available in the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal (via Nintendo's Mobile System GB service, which was discontinued on December 14, 2002) and through the Japanese Pokémon Colosseum bonus disk, as well as various promotional events.
Celebi comes with the ability Natural Cure, which heals a status ailment when the Pokémon is withdrawn from battle.
Celebi does not evolve and is the last Pokémon in both the Johto Dex and National Dex within Generation II.
Biology
Physiology
Celebi is a green fairy-like creature. Celebi has round, toe-less feet, three-fingered hands and clear wings on its back. Celebi has a round head that comes to a point and sticks upward in the back, large baby-blue eyes with black rings around them and a pair of green antenna that are tipped blue.
Gender differences
Celebi is a genderless species.
Special abilities
Celebi has the power to travel through time. Celebi can restore plants to perfect health (an ability that is also accredited to Meganium). Celebi mainly attacks with suprisingly powerful Grass and Psychic attacks.
Behavior
Celebi, like Mew, is a very playful species in general. Celebi are extremely powerful despite their small size, another trait they have in common with Mew. Celebi also can be very timid, despite their awesome power. Although multiple Celebi have been seen at one time, it is unknown if they are different individuals or the same Celebi from different time periods.
Habitat
Because Celebi travels time, it may inhabit many places. However, Celebi is generally associated with forests. Because of this, it is known as the spirit and guardian of the forest.
Diet
Main article: Pokémon food
In the anime
Celebi first appeared in Pokémon 4Ever. A Pokémon hunter was after it and Celebi traveled 40 years into future to escape from him; taking the young Sammy Oak along with it. Vicious eventually captured the Time traveling Pokémon in a Dark Ball and used it to destroy the forest. Ash and Sammy managed to snap Celebi out of The Iron Masked Maruader's control.
Celebi also made an appearance in Pokémon Chronicles. In Celebi and Joy, Celebi took Ritchie back in time to help stop the destruction of a Pokémon Center.
In Green Guardian, the Pokémon Ranger, Solana accompanied Ash and friends in helping the Time Traveling Pokémon.
In the manga
In Pokémon Special, Ruby has a Celebi that he tries to keep secret from everyone.
Then, when released in the end of RS Saga, it revives Norman, Steven and Magma Admin Courtney.
In the TCG
- Main article: Celebi (TCG)
Other appearances
When a Poké Ball is thrown, there is a 1 in 251 chance of Celebi appearing after all these requirements have been fulfilled:
- Unlock all 25 characters
- Unlock all 29 stages
- Beat all 51 events
- Unlock the score display (by reaching 5000 KOs.)
It does not affect the battle but the thrower of the Poké Ball will earn a bonus and trophy of Celebi.
Celebi returns as a rare Pokémon (how rare is unconfirmed). Instead of just getting a trophy, it drops rare items such as CDs. This also goes for Mew.

Trivia
- Celebi was the only Pokémon of the 100 Generation II Pokémon that wasn't used in the Johto Pokérap.
- Celebi is notable as one of the hardest to obtain Pokémon, as there are very few ways to legitimately obtain one outside Japanese games, and even there, they are only obtainable in two games.
- Celebi has the most weaknesses of all Pokémon, with seven. It shares this with Exeggcute, Exeggutor, Snover and Abomasnow.
Origin
It may be based on a fairy or dryad.
Name origin
Celebi's name may be a combination of celestial and being. Celebi's Japanese name may be taken to be a combination of the English serenity and the Japanese bii, which translates to beautiful. It may also come from celery, due to the fact that Celebi is a Grass-type. It is interesting to note the similarity between "Celebi" and "telebi," the Japanese word for "television." Its name may have even originated from disco artist Celi Bee, and quite possibly, the spainish word for onion, cebollo, since Celebi's head looks slightly like an onion.
