Mesprit (Japanese: エムリット Emrit) is the second member of Sinnoh's Template:Type2 Legendary Pokémon trio, and sports balanced stats, especially Sp. Attack and defenses.

Biology

Physiology

Mesprit is a small, blue, fairy-like Pokémon. It has two tails that each have a red jewel on them. These are, presumably, two of the jewels which make up the Red Chain. Mesprit has a partially magenta face with four long, drooping appendages and another red gem on its forehead.

Gender differences

Mesprit is genderless, although it is referred to as a female in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2.

Special abilities

Mesprit's spirit can leave its body without dying. Its spirit can return to the body at will.

Habitat

Mesprit sleeps in Lake Verity. Once it is encountered, it will run away, wandering around Sinnoh and only traceable with the Map Marker Pokétch app. Mesprit will warp to a new location whenever the player crosses the boundary between two areas except if the player passes through a gate between a city and a route, or if the player uses Fly.

Trivia

• Mesprit is, as of Generation IV, one of the three lightest legendary Pokémon, tied with the other members of its trio. It is also, tied with the other members of its trio, the second lightest of all Pokémon, after Gastly and Haunter.
• Mesprit is somewhat unique among the members of its trio, as it leaves Lake Verity to roam Sinnoh after being found. This is somewhat similar to how Suicune was treated in Crystal Version, although the opposite was true then, as Suicune was the only one of the legendary beasts to be confronted and fought normally while the other two roamed Johto.
• Mesprit is referred to as a female in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2.
• Mesprit shares the same species name with Kirlia. They are both known as Emotion Pokémon.
• Mesprit is the first Legendary Pokémon seen in the Diamond & Pearl series of the anime.

Origin

Mesprit is based after a spirit or a sprite and the color magenta. Mesprit and the rest of the trio could possibly have originated from the Imperial Regalia of Japan, which are also called the Three Sacred Treasures. Mesprit would be the Jewel of Benevolence.

Name origin

The English name comes from the personal pronoun me and esprit or sprite. Its Japanese name may come from the Japanese verb 笑む emu, meaning to smile, or emotion, and esprit or sprite. It may also be a combination of the English me reversed and sprite.
