* '''Zygarde Complete Forme''', one of the Formes to be introduced in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon}}


Along with these Formes are two basic components of Zygarde: '''Zygarde Cores''', which act as the brains of Zygarde, and '''Zygarde Cells''', which compose Zygarde's Formes and can neither think nor use [[move]]s.

Zygarde 50% Forme was introduced in Pokémon X and Y. Zygarde Cell, Zygarde Core, Zygarde 10% Forme, and Zygarde Complete Forme were announced in the October 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine. The latter two forms will be introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. Prior to their appearance in Sun and Moon, Zygarde's other forms played an important role in the {{pkmn|anime}}'s ''[[XY series|XY&Z]]'' arc.

Zygarde 50% Forme has a serpent-like body with a green and black pattern on it. There are black frills on the back of its head like a frilled lizard. Its eyes comprise four green hexagons like the compound eyes of an insect. More green hexagons are on the front and back of its frills. The hexagons on its eyes and frills can glow. Its tail is flat and is black on top and green on the bottom. Its tail ends with five separate green tendrils. It is said to monitor the ecosystem, and if the ecosystem falls into disarray, it appears and reveals its power.
Zygarde 50% Forme has a serpentine body with green and black markings. Most of its back is black, while the underbelly and the tip of its tail are green. Its eyes are comprised of four green hexagons, similar to an insect with compound eyes. Across the back of its neck is a large frill made of five long, flat protrusions. There are three short tendrils on either side of its chest, and its tail ends in five tendrils. It has many small, green hexagon markings on its body that can glow. This form of Zygarde is thought to monitor those who destroy the ecosystem from deep with its cave. Should the region's ecosystem fall into disarray, it will appear and reveal its power.


Zygarde Complete Forme has a large, humanoid body with a long tail similar to Zygarde 50% Forme's body. It has two wings protruding from each of its shoulders. On each of these wings is a hexagon and an undulating pattern; on its right side, these are colored blue, and on its left side they are colored red. It has multiple white protrusions on its body: three on each hand, one on each knee, and one and the front of its feet. Its torso is composed of a lower abdomen and an upper chest. The abdomen has a vertical, hexagonal pattern upon it with two thin, white, and vertical marks on either side. Upon the chest is thin, zig-zagging opening which fades between five colors: red, orange, white, cyan, and blue. The chest can open, revealing five cores of each color. Above this opening are two large green, hexagonal marks. Atop its chest is its crown-shaped head. It has three white hexagonal marks above four horizontal ones, the uppermost white one having a very thin diamond shape through it, and the lower two being eyes. Directly above the third mark is a final green hexagon. Surrounding the head are triangular protrusions connected by another upside-down triangle which is jagged at the top. Zygarde Complete Forme is said to exceed both {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}} in power, possessing 100% of its total cells. Zygarde only enters Complete Forme when the ecosystem is under threat and the Zygarde believes it is outmatched. Zygarde contains separate Zygarde Cores for its wings and tail, each of which can think and make decisions for itself.
Zygarde 10% Forme has a relatively small, mostly black canine body with a green "leash" that continues beyond the neck. Its muzzle is black at the top and green elsewhere. Its eyes are white hexagons with a black outline and no discernible pupils; directly above the eyes are two small green hexagons that resemble eyebrows. On its forehead is a very thin, white ellipse. Its "leash" is entirely green with a small red hexagon connected to the bottom. Its left front paw is green up to the elbow, while all its other legs are completely black. On each of its legs are hexagonal protrusions, all the same color black as the legs themselves. There are two such protrusions on the back of its elbows, one on each knee, and two on each hip. One extension on the right hip is placed higher than on the left.

On its forehead is a very thin, white ellipse. Its "leash" is entirely green with a small red hexagon connected to the bottom. On each of its legs are hexagonal protrusions, all the same color black as the legs themselves. On the front two legs, there are two. On the back legs are three protrusions, and on the left leg is a particularly long one made up of two hexagons. On each of its hind legs is another hexagonal shape, with a noticeable gap before a small square protrusion above it. Zygarde 10% Forme possesses 10% of Zygarde's total Cells and splits off from Zygarde 50% Forme when there is an emergency. It has razor-sharp teeth and can reach speeds up to 60&nbsp;mph (100&nbsp;km/h).
Zygarde Complete Forme has a large, humanoid body with a long tail similar to Zygarde 50% Forme's body. There are several flat protrusions around its head and triangular protrusions around its neck, giving it a crown-shaped appearance. On its face are three white hexagonal marks: one in the middle of its forehead with a line through it and two being that acting as eyes. There are an additional five green hexagons on its face: four along the bottom and one in the middle of a short protrusion on top. Each shoulder has two wings protruding from it. These wings all have a hexagon and an undulating pattern: blue on the right side and red on the left. The very tip of the wings can open up, making them appear to be a pair of "mouths" with red or blue patterns on the inside. It has multiple white protrusions on its body: three on each hand acting as claws, one on each knee, and one and the front of each foot. Additionally, there are green extensions surrounding its wrists and two under the white protrusions on its knees and feet. Its abdomen has a vertical, hexagonal pattern upon it with two thin, white, and vertical marks on either side. Across its chest is thin, zigzagging opening that fades between five colors: red, orange, white, cyan, and blue. The chest can open, revealing five cores of each color. Above this opening are two large green, hexagonal marks. When its wings and tail are extended, Zygarde Complete Forme resembles the Latin alphabet letter Z.  


Zygarde Core is a part of the mind of Zygarde, and has a small and leafy-green gelatinous body comprised of a large, round head, a moderately-sized body, and a thin, hook-shaped bottom section which may be a tail. Its head is rounded except for a protruding, beak-shaped area at the bottom front which may be a nose or a mouth. Within its head is a single, oval eye which has a smaller black, oval pupil within it. Beside this eye is another white, semi-elliptic shape which may be a second eye. Within its midsection is a nearly regular, red hexagon. They are self-aware and can communicate via telepathy, monitoring the ecosystem around them. Zygarde Cores get their energy through {{wp|photosynthesis}}.
Zygarde Core is the brain of Zygarde, and has a small and leafy-green gelatinous body comprised of a large, round head, a moderately sized body, and a thin, hook-shaped bottom section that may be a tail. Its head is rounded except for a protruding, beak-shaped area at the bottom front. Within its head is a single, oval eye that has a smaller, oval pupil within it. Beside this eye is another white, semi-elliptic shape, possibly a second eye. Within its midsection is a nearly regular, red hexagon. Zygarde Cells make up every other part of Zygarde, and appears very similar to the Zygarde Core. Unlike the Core, it is flat, has a green pupil, and has a darker green, more elongated hexagon within its midsection. Unlike the Cores' hook-like bottom section, the Cells have a long and more noticeably tail-like back-end.


Zygarde Cells make up Zygarde, and appears very similar to the Zygarde Core. Unlike the Core, it is flat, has a green pupil, and has a darker green, more elongated hexagon within its midsection. Unlike the Cores' hook-like bottom section, the Cells have a long and more noticeably tail-like back-end. Zygarde Cells are unable to think and incapable of using [[move]]s.
Each of Zygarde's Formes is made up of Cores and Cells. Neither of these two forms have power to battle alone, only when combined to form Zygarde. The Cores have their own will and are sometimes able to act on their own. They serve as brains for Zygarde. The Cells form the rest of Zygarde's body. They are only able to act on the Core's orders.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde's-cores-and-cells/</ref> A single Core acts as the brain for the 10% form. This allows it to take action separately from Zygarde's 50% Forme, which comprises its main body, but only for a short time.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-10-forme/</ref> Zygarde Complete Forme contains separate Cores for each of its wings and its tail, and each Core can make decisions and act independently of the others.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/zygarde-complete-forme/</ref>


Zygarde is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the moves {{m|Land's Wrath}}, {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, {{m|Thousand Waves}}, and {{m|Core Enforcer}}.<!--UNCONFIRMED: Its 10% Forme's signature moves are {{m|Thousand Arrows}} and {{m|Thousand Waves}}, and {{m|Core Enforcer}} is exclusive to its Complete Forme.-->
Each form of Zygarde has its own special abilities and methods of attack. The Cores are able to communicate with other Cores and Cells via telepathy. The Cores have been known to take action when the local ecosystem is threatened. Its 10% Forme has razor-sharp teeth and can reach speeds up to 60 mph (100 km/h). Zygarde Complete Forme is said to exceed both Xerneas and Yveltal in power, possessing 100% of its total cells.

Zygarde is a major target of [[Team Flare]] in the anime. Zygarde Cells and one of its Cores made their anime debuts in ''[[SS035|Mega Evolution Special IV]]''. Thanks to the help of [[Mairin]]'s Chespin, Chespie, the Core managed to escape [[Lysandre Labs]], and came across {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. {{an|Bonnie}} was immediately taken with the unidentified Pokémon, and [[nickname]]d it "[[Squishy]]". It currently travels in Bonnie's bag, alongside {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}.

Squishy later transformed into 10% Forme after being separated from Bonnie and the others to defend itself against [[Bryony]] and her subordinates; Squishy, however, eventually returned to travel with Bonnie in ''[[XY103|A Cellular Connection!]]''. Teaser images for [[M19]] also hint that it will gain its complete forme by that movie.

Zygarde's 10%, 50%, and Complete Formes may be inspired in part by the three children of {{wp|Loki}} and {{wp|Angrboða}}: {{wp|Fenrir}}, {{wp|Jörmungandr}}, and {{wp|Hel (being)|Hel}}.

Zygarde 10% Forme may be based on Fenrir. The green scarf-like object around its neck could be based on {{wp|Gleipnir}}, the rope that binds Fenrir. This Forme could also draw inspiration from {{wp|Garmr}}, the watchdog that guards {{wp|Hel (location)|Helheim}}'s gate. In appearance, Zygarde 10% Forme resembles a {{wp|Doberman Pinscher}}.
