Spear Key
The Spear Key (Japanese: やりのカギ Spear Key) is a special artifact in the anime that is currently under the possession of Team Galactic. Nothing is known about its origin or true purpose.
In Journey To The Unown!, Saturn and two Team Galactic Grunts head inside the Solaceon Ruins. In an inner chamber, they place the Splash Plate, Draco Plate and Iron Plate into slots on the floor which releases the Spear Key in the form of a cube.
Later in Enter Galactic!, Saturn and more grunts arrive at the site of the meteorites in Veilstone City so that the power of the meteorites activates the Spear Key.
In Double Team Turnover!, the Spear Key is used by Jupiter to locate the Lustrous Orb. As the episode ends, the Spear Key, along with the Lustrous and Adamant Orbs were seen attached to machines in Team Galactic's base.
The Spear Key is shown again in Steeling Peace of Mind! and Saving the World From Ruins! where it was used by Mars at Iron Island to scan Mt. Coronet so as to find the exact location of the Spear Pillar.
In DP136, the Spear Key was used by Saturn and Charon to find some ruins in Mt. Coronet. When it was found, the Spear Key did not react to it indicating that those were the wrong ruins, and thus they retreated.
Trivia
- A picture on the TV Tokyo Pokémon website shows what is apparently the Spear Key in its activated form inside what appears to be a portal to the Distortion World, surrounded by the members of the lake trio, indicating a possible plot point.
- Its name is a very obvious reference to Spear Pillar, indicating that the two share a connection.
- The three plates used refer to Dialga and Palkia: the Splash Plate to Palkia's Template:Type2, the Iron Plate to Dialga's Template:Type2, and the Draco Plate to the Template:Type2 that both Pokémon are.
