==History==

However, there was still danger in the present, this time from a [[Team Rocket]] member known as the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]]. Using a [[Dark Ball]], the Iron-Masked Marauder captured Celebi to use for his own evil plans, and the Pokémon was put under his dark control. With the help of Ash and the others, Celebi was set free from the Iron-Masked Marauder. However, it looked very grim for Celebi, who wasn't able to heal itself in the [[Lake of Life]] where it had healed before because the lake was too polluted.

Celebi briefly appeared in a flashback in the opening sequence of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', in Pikachu's memories in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', and in a montage in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' that chronicled the preceding nine movies.

==Personality and characteristics==

Celebi is a very playful Pokémon, as it is often seen playing around with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. However, this playful and kind personality is masked after Celebi is captured in a {{Ball|Dark}} by the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]] and put under his control. Instead of being its usual playful self, Celebi becomes a dark, hateful Pokémon. This behavior results in the creation of a giant Celebi out of surrounding branches and a massive attack on the forest it once called home. This behavior remained until Ash, [[Sam]]my, and {{OBP|Suicune|M04}} managed to restore Celebi's memories and its old personality. After it is freed from the Iron Masked Marauder, Celebi retains none of its previous nasty and dark behavior. Celebi is also very helpful and spirited, however, due to this, it was an easy subject to the Iron-Masked Marauder's plans. Its evil behavior was not natural and was a result of being captured in a Dark Ball.
