Kyogre (Japanese: カイオーガ Kyogre) is a Water-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, Kyogre can undergo Primal Reversion and become Primal Kyogre if it holds the Blue Orb.
Kyogre possesses the ability to expand the oceans. In ancient times, it came into conflict with Groudon, a Pokémon with the ability to expand continents. In Pokémon Sapphire, Emerald, and Alpha Sapphire, Kyogre is sought after by Team Aqua as part of their plot to compose more habitats for aquatic Pokémon by raising the sea level.
Kyogre is the game mascot of Pokémon Sapphire and its remake, Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, with Kyogre appearing on the box art of Sapphire and Primal Kyogre appearing on the box art of Alpha Sapphire.
Along with Groudon and Rayquaza, Kyogre is a part of the super-ancient Pokémon.
Biology
Kyogre is a massive, whale-like Pokémon with two big pectoral fins, each with four white square-shaped nails. It has a deep blue body and a white chin area with two small spikes protruding under it. Above each eye are two white, oval-shaped spots. Kyogre has red stripes around its chin, eyes, dorsal fins, and torso. These stripes glow when Kyogre is brimming with power. The tail is tattered with four trailing parts, with the inner ones being smaller than the outer. Its eyes are small, yellow, and shadowed with black.
Primal Kyogre retains its general body structure but grows to more than double the size of its base form. Its main skin color becomes a darker shade of blue, the red markings along its body become light blue, and its eyes glow yellow with orange irises and orange-red pupils. The markings on its pectoral fins slightly change to form α symbols, which connect to its outer nails with red markings connecting the inner nails. Every part of its skin that was white in its base form becomes clear and translucent, with the large ovals on its head now connected to clear markings stretching from its tail to its forehead, where another α symbol is formed. The trailing parts of its tail grow longer and gain translucent webbing, and the areas between its pectoral fin markings also become clear. The translucent parts of its body reveal organ-like structures that glow with a mysterious light; it has a large "organ" at the center of its body, two smaller ones aligned with the large oval markings, and two more located in its pectoral fins. In the anime, Primal Kyogre is said to have widened the seas by a large margin simply by taking a swim.
Kyogre is said to be a powerful Pokémon, having control over the element of water and rain. It is said to have expanded the seas and is hailed as a savior for quenching areas of the world plagued with drought. Kyogre is normally calm and peaceful, but if it meets its rival, Groudon, Kyogre will engage in a cataclysmic battle against it. In the Mystery Dungeon series and core series, Kyogre is able to fly. Kyogre generally lives deep in the ocean and is said to rest in a deep trench. Kyogre is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Origin Pulse.

Major appearances
Kyogre (Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire)
Kyogre made its physical main series debut in Gaining Groudon. Team Magma had captured Kyogre but didn't have the correct orb to control it, so they planned to make a trade with Team Aqua, who had captured Groudon. The trade was about to be made when Archie decided to use Kyogre to destroy everyone, including his fellow henchmen. In The Scuffle of Legends, the battle between Kyogre and Groudon occurred.
Kyogre (Pokémon the Series: XY)
In Mega Evolution Special II, a Kyogre was awakened by the presence of the Giant Rock. In Mega Evolution Special III, it was shown in its primal state, fighting with Primal Groudon over the Giant Rock.
Other
In Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, a Kyogre was among countless other Water-type Pokémon that arrived at Samiya when Ash replaced all of the Sea Crown's crystals. However, when The Phantom attempted to make all the Water-types panic using supersonic waves from his ship, Kyogre was part of the ensuing commotion. Manaphy calmed them down using Heart Swap to rid the Pokémon of their confusion, and some Wailord broke open The Phantom's ship, followed by some Chinchou swimming into the opening and short-circuiting the ship. Kyogre then used Hyper Beam on the ship, destroying it.
In the beginning of Hoopa and the Clash of Ages, a Kyogre was summoned by Hoopa to defeat it in the past. A Primal Kyogre was later one of six Legendary Pokémon summoned and hypnotized by the shadow Hoopa Unbound as its reinforcements. It and its teammates engaged in a battle against the Latios, Latias, and Shiny Rayquaza summoned to protect the real Hoopa in Dahara City. Eventually, after the shadow Hoopa was sealed in a Prison Bottle, the hypnosis on Primal Kyogre and the other Legendary Pokémon was lifted, and Primal Kyogre departed for its home.
In The One That Didn't Get Away!, a Kyogre had been poisoned and was being pursued by a Pokémon Hunter and his underlings. However, Lana was able to feed it some Antidote, restoring its health and allowing it to defeat the hunter. However, Kyogre was still enraged because of the hunters' action, forcing Lana to reel it in with her fishing rod and have her Primarina sing to it in order to calm it down. After Lana calmed Kyogre down, it thanked her for restoring its health and calming it down before leaving peacefully.

Pokémon Adventures
- Main article: Kyogre (Adventures)
Kyogre's first appearance was in Assaulted by Pelipper I. It was awakened by Team Aqua in order to achieve their goal of expanding the sea. Wattson, Flannery, and Winona tried to stop it but failed due to Team Aqua's interference, and it ended up reaching Sootopolis City, where it fought for days on end with Groudon. Ruby, having trapped Sapphire in Wallace's air car for her safety, was joined by a reformed Courtney and succeeded in quelling both the creatures using the Red and Blue Orbs and Norman's temporary control over Rayquaza. In the Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire chapter, Blaise and Amber tricked Hoopa into summoning Kyogre and Groudon from their places of rest. This, in addition to the return of Archie and Maxie, was set up in order to prevent a meteoroid from destroying the world.
In the Emerald chapter, Guile Hideout succeeded in having Jirachi cause a Kyogre monster made of seawater that nearly sank the entire Battle Frontier.
A Primal Kyogre appeared in a fantasy in Omega Alpha Adventure 5.

Trivia
- Kyogre's Special Attack and Attack, and Special Defense and Defense stats are the reverse of Groudon's.
- In games prior to Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Kyogre has a catch rate of 5.
- Spenser has a staff with Kyogre's markings on it.
- Primal Kyogre has the highest base Special Attack stat, base Special Defense stat, and base stat total of all Water-type Pokémon.
- In Pokémon Battle Revolution, Marina has a costume based on Kyogre.
- In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, a Kyogre that knows Surf will allow the player to surf more quickly than with other Pokémon (except for Sharpedo). This action has its own animation and larger hitbox.
- Additionally, a Kyogre that knows Dive will allow the player to avoid underwater trainer battles. This action also has its own animation and larger hitbox.
- Primal Kyogre is the heaviest Water-type Pokémon.
Origin
Kyogre may be modeled after the Earth's oceans and may also be a personification of the ocean. Its conflict with Groudon is similar to that of Leviathan and Behemoth, who would start a battle that would kill them both at the end of time. Like Kyogre, Leviathan is associated with the sea, and the Hebrew word for Leviathan is now used for whales in Modern Hebrew, which may be why Kyogre's appearance also draws inspiration from cetaceans, especially the orca. However, Leviathan does not resemble Kyogre in traditional depictions.
Name origin
Kyogre may be a combination of 海 kai (ocean) and orca (a species described as a whale, but is more closely related to dolphins). Notably, it may also involve 海王 kaiō (king of the sea), which are the first two characters in 海王星 Kaiōsei (Neptune).
