==Biology==
==Biology==
Cobalion is a quadrupedal Pokémon that possesses traits of stags and goats. It is covered in aqua blue fur, and has jagged yellow horns similar in shape to thunderbolts. Its snout is a lighter shade of blue than the rest of its fur, and there a black blaze running from its nose to the back of its head. On its long neck and hind legs, there are small gray spots. It has a white tuft of fur under its neck, resembling a cravat. On its shoulder blades are yellow protrusions that resemble fins. Its tail resembles these protrusions, albeit in the same color as its snout. Cobalion's legs have black bands with lighter fur underneath and large black hooves.

==In the anime==
===Major appearances===
[[File:Cobalion M15.png|thumb|250px|left|Cobalion in the anime]]
====[[Swords of Justice (M15)|Cobalion (M15)]]====
Cobalion made its debut in the [[M15|fifteenth]] [[Pokémon movie]], being one of its stars along with {{p|Terrakion}}, {{p|Virizion}}, {{p|Kyurem}} and {{p|Keldeo}}. Along with Terrakion, Virizion, Kyurem and Keldeo, Cobalion can [[Talking Pokémon|speak through telepathy]].
 
===Minor appearances===
{{-}}
 
==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Swords of Justice#In the Pokémon Adventures manga|Swords of Justice → In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}
In the {{chap|Black & White}}, Cobalion appears in the [[Mistralton Cave]] where his colleagues, Terrakion and Virizion, are being challenged by [[Trish]] of the Riches. Trish is startled into dropping her fire torches and causing a blaze inside the cave. The trio work together to put out the fire, then take [[Shoko]] and Trish's Pokémon away, only to give them back after persuasion from {{adv|Black}}.
 
Later, Cobalion leads his colleagues to [[Pledge Grove]]. On the way, Cobalion fends off an attack by the [[Shadow Triad]] on them. Upon arrival, the trio teach their new apprentice, {{p|Keldeo}}, how to use {{m|Sacred Sword}}. Cobalion then makes the decision to confront the Shadow Triad.


===In the Be the Best! Pokémon B+W manga===
Cobalion has a composed demeanor but dislikes humans. Once, it fought against people to protect Pokémon. Its glare can make even an unruly Pokémon obey it. Cobalion is said to have possessed the air of a leader since its birth, and is capable of calming even the most vicious of foes. Cobalion loves [[Cobalion Treat]]s made by [[Snacksworth]], who once encountered and followed it in the past. Cobalion shares a resemblance to {{p|Iron Crown}}. Iron Crown is believed to be a descendant of Cobalion or a cutting-edge weapon that merely resembles it.
[[File:Amu Cobalion.png|150px|thumb|Cobalion in [[Pokémon RéBURST]]]]
[[Monta]] owns a Cobalion, which he used in an attempt to weaken {{p|Kyurem}} enough to be able to capture it.


===In the Pokémon RéBURST manga===
In [[Generation V]], {{m|Sacred Sword}} was its [[signature move]].
Cobalion, along with Virizion and Terrakion, were captured by [[Great Gavel]] by holding several Pokémon captive. Later, it was sealed into a Burst Heart and became the [[Burst]] form of [[Amu]].

===Origin===
===Origin===
Cobalion appears to be based on the character of {{wp|Athos (fictional character)|Athos}} from the novel ''{{wp|The Three Musketeers}}''. Like Athos, Cobalion is the oldest and the ''de facto'' leader of the group. Like the others of its trio, its appearance is based on {{wp|ungulates}}. It bears close resemblance to a {{wp|markhor}} (a type of goat) and species of antelope such as the {{wp|Greater Kudu|greater kudu}} or {{wp|Common Eland|eland}}. It also resembles a stag. Like the other members of its trio, its nose is shaped like that of a sheep or goat.
