===Physiology===
[[File:649Genesect BW anime 3.png|150px|thumb|left|Shiny Genesect in its High-Speed Flight Form]]
Genesect has a head like a UFO, with two large eyes and a small mouth. Its body is similar to {{p|Scizor}}, but more articulate. It has a powerful cannon (named in the {{m|Techno Buster}} move as the Photon Blaster) on its back that was apparently added as part of the bizarre modifications made to it by [[Team Plasma]].
Genesect is a bipedal, insectoid Pokémon with a metal body and a saucer-shaped head. It is primarily purple with several gray markings. It has two large red eyes and a small white part that could be either its mouth or a vent. It has thin arms with overlapping segments. Each arm ends with a single, pointed claw. There is a gray circle on each shoulder, and a gray band around its abdomen. Its segmented legs each end with a large, upward curving claw.
[[File:Genesect silk.png|thumb|200px|Genesect spinning its silk]]


====Gender differences====
The powerful cannon on its back and other enhancements were apparently added as part of the bizarre modifications made to it by [[Team Plasma]]. It is the [[Signature move|only Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Techno Blast}}, an attack which changes type depending on the [[Drive]] it holds. It is indicated that even before Team Plasma powered up Genesect, it was a skilled and ruthless hunter. By folding up its limbs and connecting its head to the cannon on its back, Genesect can assume a flying saucer-like form, allowing it to fly. This form is known as the High-Speed Flight Form (Japanese: '''高速飛行形態'''). It can also spin a sticky string from its claws.
Genesect is a genderless species.


===Special abilities===
Genesect was revived from a [[Fossil]] and technologically enhanced by [[Team Plasma]] to create the most powerful Pokémon ever. [[N]] had the project cancelled and the [[P2 Laboratory]] closed because he felt that Pokémon, who he thought to be perfect beings, would lose their beauty if modified by science. However, {{tc|Scientist}} Dudley kept working on it, angry that N denied his talent. This scientist reconstructed Genesect and installed the cannon on its back.
Being modified by Team Plasma, Genesect is equipped with a powerful cannon that can shoot down everything around it. It is the [[Signature move|only Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Techno Buster}}, which changes its type of blast depending on the cassette it holds. Genesect's cannon also give Genesect the ability to learn a variety of projectile-based moves like {{m|Zap Cannon}}, {{m|Energy Ball}}, or {{m|Flash Cannon}} or beam-based moves like {{m|Ice Beam}}, {{m|Hyper Beam}}, and {{m|Signal Beam}}. Genesect's sharp claws also allow it to learn moves like {{m|Fury Cutter}} and {{m|Slash}}. Genesect can also use {{type|Flying}} moves like {{m|Fly}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}}. It is indicated that even before Team Plasma powered up Genesect, it was a skilled and ruthless hunter.

===Major appearances===
====[[Genesect Army]]====
{{an|N}} discovered an image of a Genesect on a computer monitor at the ruined [[P2 Laboratory]] in ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]'' while he was investigating Team Plasma's plans.


===Habitat===
The Genesect Army, a group of five Genesect led by a {{Shiny|Red}} Genesect, first appeared in ''[[BW119|Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!]]''. During his investigations, N found a destroyed building where a {{p|Patrat}} and {{p|Watchog}} were. By using his power to hear their voices, he had a flashback where he realized that the Genesect Army was responsible for the destruction.


===Diet===
The Genesect Army has a major role in ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''. In the film, they appear in [[New Tork City]] and go on a rampage, bringing them into conflict with a {{OBP|Mewtwo|Best Wishes series}}.

==History==
Genesect was going to be revived from a [[fossil]] and powered up by [[Team Plasma]] to create the most powerful Pokémon ever, but [[N]] had the project cancelled because he felt that any Pokémon modified by science had lost its pureness. However, one scientist kept working on it, annoyed that N denied his talent. This scientist reconstructed Genesect and powered up the gun on its back.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Despite its [[Pokédex]] entries stating that it is a resurrected prehistoric Pokémon, it is not {{type|Rock}} like [[fossil]] Pokémon that can be resurrected by the {{player}}. This could be due to the modifications made to it by [[Team Plasma]].
* Genesect is the only {{type|Bug}} [[Legendary Pokémon]].
* Genesect is the only {{type|Bug}} [[legendary Pokémon]], excluding {{p|Arceus}} holding the [[Insect Plate]].
* Genesect is tied with {{me|Pinsir}}, {{me|Scizor}}, and {{me|Heracross}} for the highest base stat total of all [[Bug-type]] Pokémon.
* Genesect has the highest base stat total of all Bug-type Pokémon.

* Genesect can learn {{m|Fly}}, despite having no visible wings or known method of flight.
* Genesect is the only Pokémon whose Pokédex entry names a villainous team, in this case, [[Team Plasma]].

** Genesect is the only Pokémon which ends a [[generation]] in National Pokédex order that is not {{type|Psychic}} in at least one [[Form differences|form]].
 
* Of the Generation V event legendary Pokémon, Genesect is the only one that does not have an event [[signature move]]. {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}} and {{p|Meloetta}} obtain their respective signature moves through events, whereas Genesect has {{m|Techno Buster}} as a starting move.
* Despite it being its [[signature move]], Genesect cannot receive STAB from {{m|Techno Buster}}.
* Genosect has a similar story to {{p|Mewtwo}}. Both were created to be the strongest Pokémon ever and both Pokémon projects were continued to their completion.
===Origin===
===Origin===
Genesect may be generally based on the giant insects of the {{wp|Paleozoic}} era, which existed for 300 million years, making it as old as the {{wp|cockroach}}. Its Steel-type features that give it a somewhat robotic appearance are a reference to alien robots in science fiction media, however this may be because of Team Plasma's modifications.
