Keldeo was {{n|Keldeo to be revealed in upcoming CoroCoro|leaked}} on a photo of a page from [[CoroCoro]] magazine on February 13, 2012, and it was officially revealed on [http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2012/02/120215_g01.html?a001=news February 15, 2012]. Its Resolute Form was officially revealed June 13, 2012.

Keldeo is a quadruped, colt-like Pokémon with a cream-colored body. It has a short, rounded snout with large nostrils, and blue eyes. It has a large, feathery red mane, long, dark blue, ridged eyebrow-like protrusions, and a single cream-colored horn that curves slightly. The back of its head, as well as its neck, is covered with fluffy, light blue fur. Keldeo has blue hooves, which are capable of ejecting water. Its tail is light blue with white spots and resembles an elaborate feather in a cap.

Keldeo tends to cross the world, and often appears at beautiful watersides. It can walk across water by ejecting water from its hooves. It is thought that when Keldeo becomes resolute, its body fills with power and it becomes swifter.

** The moves that Keldeo learns by level have higher base powers than the moves learned by the other Swords of Justice.

** Keldeo learns {{m|Sacred Sword}} one level later than the other three.

** Its legs seem to be stylized after animal legs and hooves, unlike the others, which seem to have boots.

** Keldeo's name doesn't end with -ion.

* Its trait of running across water mirrors {{p|Suicune}}, another quadrupedal {{type|Water}} Legendary Pokémon.
