Kirlia is a white bipedal Pokémon that appears to be wearing a tutu. It has green hair that reaches down to its shoulders, and two red horns looking like hairpins. These horns are used to amplify its psychokinetic power and distort the air around it. The distortion in the air causes scenery mirages. It can also use its horns to cause a rip in dimensions and see into the future. It has skinny green legs with pointed feet and thin, white arms that have two fingers. It grows beautiful when exposed to positive emotions from its Trainer. It likes to dance on sunny mornings. It is known to inhabit urban areas.
Elijah used a Kirlia in a movie for Lights, Camerupt, Action!. The Emotion Pokémon had a "damsel-in-distress" role for the movie it was used in.
Kirlia also appeared in Do I Hear a Ralts? as well as its evolved form, Gardevoir. Both of them sent Jessie, James and Meowth flying when the Team Rocket cornered Max and Snorunt while they were hurrying to send Ralts to the Pokémon Center. However, Kirlia and Gardevoir thought that Max was also stealing Ralts. When Ralts blocked Kirlia and Gardevoir's Psychic, all hostilities were ignored and the two other Psychic Pokémon left. Kirlia and Gardevoir appeared once more at the near-end of the episode to send James flying (Ralts already launched Jessie and Meowth for posing themselves as a Gardevoir and Kirlia).
Two Kirlia appeared in Mutiny in the Bounty!. One appearing in a flashback, being one of Pokémon HunterJ's stolen Pokémon, and the other used by Melodi so Ash and his friends can find out where Pokémon Hunter J and her minions will strike next after Ash's Pikachu, Melodi's Gardevoir and Team Rocket's Meowth were stolen.
Kirlia made an appearance in The Rise of Darkrai as one of the Pokémon attacked by Darkrai and having nightmares. Alicia, Alice's grandmother, treated Kirlia and woke it up, along with Roserade and Luxray.
