Its original Forme, '''Aria Forme''', will then become the {{2t|Normal|Fighting}}-type '''Pirouette Forme'''.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===

Meloetta made its debut in ''[[PS500|With a Little Help from My Friends]]'', where it was attracted to the flute music made by {{adv|Bianca}}. After sneaking aboard the [[Battle Subway]] train, Meloetta found its way to Café Sonata, only to be attacked by a group of wild {{p|Vullaby}}. After finding out what happened, {{adv|White}} protected Meloetta while Bianca decided to take a guitar and play with Meloetta in place of the {{tc|Guitarist}} that was injured in the chaos.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===

A Meloetta appeared in [[PMBW29]] of {{OBP|Pocket Monsters BW|Kosaku Anakubo}}.

==In the TCG==

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===

Meloetta in its Aria Forme appears as a Poké Ball summon in the 3DS and Wii U versions of the game. It will create projectiles that bounce around the stage and reflect off of terrain. It will appear only after playing for at least 8 hours.

====Trophy information====

'''NA''': ''A Normal/Psychic-type Pokémon, Meloetta can change its Forme by using Relic Song. In Smash Bros., Meloetta appears in its Aria Forme, using an attack called Echoed Voice to send waves of sound bouncing around the stage. The more walls and platforms, the harder this is to avoid. ''
