Solgaleo is a large, white {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} resembling a lion. It has a blunt muzzle with a blue-gray nose and pale blue eyes. The top half of its face is a deep blue area that shows a constantly changing starscape. Four yellow spikes frame Solgaleo's head like a crown and two more pairs of spikes adorn either side of its lower jaw. Each spike separates large tufts of Solgaleo's mane. Solid ridges—red nearest Solgaleo's head and yellow farther away—poke out of each tuft along the middle, except on the tufts on its cheeks and chin, with the topmost part wrapping around the tip of the tuft. Overall, its mane creates the impression of a stylized sun. Around each leg is a dark orange band, and there is a black spot on each foot. It has three black toes on each foot with long yellow claws. At the tip of its tail is a large black spot with a thin yellow rim.

When Solgaleo enters its [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Solgaleo and Lunala|Radiant Sun phase]], its {{wp|third eye}} appears on its forehead—a light blue symbol similar to a compass rose—and the starscape turns to streaks of light. The fur on its body glows a pale yellow and all other parts of its body except its nose turn bright yellow. It enters this phase during attacks or traveling in [[Ultra Space]]. The phase does not appear in the series as of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.<ref name=SVForm>[https://twitter.com/Lewchube/status/1736911069249994991 Solgaleo does not change into it's Radiant Sun phase as of Pokémon SV.]</ref>

In the ancient times, it was known as "'''The beast that devours the sun'''", Solgaleo has long been honored as an emissary of the sun.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/solgaleo/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Solgaleo]</ref> It is said to live in another world and returns there when its third eye activates. Its body is capable of holding a vast amount of energy and glows when active. The intense light it radiates can make nighttime look like midday. Solgaleo can create [[Ultra Wormhole]]s to travel to and from Ultra Space. Along with its counterpart {{p|Lunala}}, it can create {{p|Cosmog}}, which it is said to be the male evolution of. Solgaleo along with Lunala has the power to create [[Z-Crystal]]s and restore Necrozma's light, regaining its true form. It can also influence a {{p|Rockruff}}'s evolution into {{p|Lycanroc}}'s Midday form with solar energy.<ref>[https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/lycanroc-midday-form/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Midday Lycanroc]</ref> The residents of [[Ultra Megalopolis]] uses Solgaleo as their own [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] to travel through Ultra Space.

Solgaleo, similar to Lunala, is a being composed of light, due to that, it is constantly hunted down by {{p|Necrozma}} through the Ultra Space, so it can try and devour Solgaleo's light to ease its nonstopping pain and regain its original, Ultra form. When taken over by Necrozma, Necrozma's body divides into pieces that connect to Solgaleo's body, possessing it and transforming itself into Dusk Mane Necrozma, as its pieces constantly absorb Solgaleo's light. Solgaleo loves [[Solgaleo Treat]]s made by [[Snacksworth]], who once encountered it in the past.

However, Solgaleo can coexist with Necrozma willingly, regardless of fusion. <ref>[[Lusamine (Masters)]]:''"It doesn't seem like Necrozma or Solgaleo are suffering in their current state. I suppose now that they have the light of our sync stone, they're able to coexist peacefully."''([[Pokémon Masters EX]])</ref><ref>[[Lillie]]''"<player>, I know this may be sudden, but I hope you will consider what I ask of you. I want to entrust Nebby to you. I think Nebby should be with Necrozma. From what I've heard, Necrozma would not suffer as much or ache so for the light if it can remain close to Nebby..."''([[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]])</ref> Solgaleo loves [[Solgaleo Treat]]s made by [[Snacksworth]], who once encountered it in the past.

====Major appearances====
====={{DL|Nebby|In the anime|Solgaleo (anime)}}=====
In ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]'', {{Ash}}'s Nebby evolved into a Solgaleo while at the [[Altar of the Sunne]], during {{ashcl|the group}}'s quest to save {{an|Lusamine}} from [[Ultra Space]]. After its final [[evolution]], Ash and his classmates typically referred to it by its proper name.
 
In ''[[SM088|Full Moon and Many Arms!]]'', Solgaleo was involved in rescuing Lunala and Necrozma from Team Rocket's captivity. Later on, after [[Necrozma]] separated from Lunala, it was taken over by Necrozma, becoming Dusk Mane Necrozma. It then opened up an [[Ultra Wormhole]] to {{AP|Poipole}}'s world. Ash tried to follow Solgaleo (now fused with Necrozma), but failed because the Ultra Wormhole closed.
 
In ''[[SM089|The Prism of Light and Darkness!]]'', after being pursued by Ash, his classmates, and Lunala, to Poipole's world, Solgaleo was successfully separated from Necrozma after the Ultra Guardians, {{P|Naganadel}} and its Poipole subjects, and all the people and Pokémon of Alola sent their light to Necrozma. However, due to being fused with Necrozma for a long period of time, Solgaleo was completely drained of energy. When Ash and Mallow gave Solgaleo a [[Sitrus Berry]], Solgaleo regained its strength once more. Ash requested its power, and it and Ash performed the Z-Move {{M|Searing Sunraze Smash}} alongside Lunala and [[Gladion]], who were performing the Z-Move {{M|Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom}}.
 
====Minor appearances====
Solgaleo debuted alongside {{p|Lunala}} in {{Ash}}'s dream in ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter!]]''. It reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[SM050|Faba's Revenge!]]'' and ''Revealing the Stuff of Legend!'', and in a fantasy in ''[[SM074|Tough Guy Trials!]]''.
