Crecelia (クレセリア, Kureseria^?) is one of the 493 fictional species of Pokémon creatures from the multi-billion dollar^[1] Pokémon media franchise – a collection of video games, anime, manga, books, trading cards and other media, created by Satoshi Tajiri. Crecelia is one of the legendary Pokémon that premiers in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. The purpose of Crecelia in the games, anime and manga, as with all other Pokémon, is to battle both wild Pokémon, untamed creatures encountered while the player passes through various environments, and tamed Pokémon owned by Pokémon trainers.^[2]

[edit] Appearance

Crecelia is always female. She has an ornament on her head that looks like a crescent moon. She also has three rings on her torso that look similar to the rings of Saturn. The multitude of crescent shapes on her body may be the basis for her name, Crecelia. She has the appearance of a swan.

Light particles are given off by her veil-like feathers when she flies. She is referred to as the embodiment of the crescent moon.

[edit] In the video games

Crecelia will make her first appearance in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl for the Nintendo DS alongside with many other new Pokémon.

Crecelia is one of the legendary Pokémon in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, and the second female-only legendary after Latias. She is encountered later in the game at Full Moon Island once the player has the National Pokédex. When encountered, she runs to different locations in Sinnoh, similar to the legendary beasts Entei, Raikou, and Suicune in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, or like Latias and Latios in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.
