I can't stress this enough Just because somthing looks simmilar to somthing else does not say anything about it's origin. Can the part about the Napalm man be removed? It is speculation and therfore does not belong in the origin section, unless there is evidence to support it (If some is found please tell me what it is). --'''[[User:EpicShadow|<span style="color:black">Epic</span>]][[User talk:EpicShadow|<span style="color:blue">Shadow</span>]]'''  00:13, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

I got a lot of hunches on this pokemon being artificially created by Team Plasma. There are some reasons why: First, both are being developed as the most strongest pokemon created  by science. Second, they originated from the remains of a extinct pokemon (Mewtwo originated from a fossilized hair of Mew and Genesect originated from a bug-like fossil). Third, both villainous group shares the same goal on making them the strongest pokemon ever created to rule the world. And fourth, both of them escaped for unknown reasons in the games. But I know there are more to this relation, somehow....

I was wondering - what will be done for artwork section of the event legendary Pokémon until their official Ken Sugimori art is released? I remember Arceus had fan art until its Sugimori art is revealed, so will Kerudio, Meloetta, and Genesect follow the same route? I'd be happy to provide Sugimori-style artwork for them if that ends up being the case. I know this is probably jumping the gun quite a bit, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask.

I heard almost everyone at YouTUBE giving Genosect the nickname Dennis due to the confusion caused with Geechisu's battle music. Prior to the reveal it was Geechisu's theme instead of Genesect's theme everybody called it Dennis due to the chorus in the track. Not sure if alot of people still refer to him as such now but could we atleast mention it since Tsutarja's page mentioned Smugleaf?

"Genesect is currently the only Pokémon which names a villainous team in its Pokédex entry." The game isn't even out in English, and this is in the article? The pokedex entry doesn't have any English words (obviously, but I wanted to make sure anyway) Are we going by some translation that could potentially be wrong? Or was this ACTUALLY mentioned somewhere? [[User:In A Manica|In A Manica]] 03:00, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

== Evolution? ==

Why are the 5 different images of Genesect shown in the evolution? The cassettes only affect ONE move and a coloring of ONE detail, nothing else. It's no major forme change and is far less impressive than Arceus's formes, doesn't change stats, type or anything like others like Meloetta for instance. I don't think it should be considered to evolve. --<span style="color:#91A3B0">—</span>[[User:Venomoth|<span style="color:black; font-size: 13pt">'''''V'''e<small>№</small>moth''</span>]][[User talk:Venomoth| ♦]] 01:56, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

:It isn't evolution, it's forme change, first of all. Second, Genesect's different formes' sprites are needed just as much as Gender differences are. Gender differences don't effect type, moves, stats, or anything! It's just a "small" difference in appearence, but its still used because it makes the article more complete showing what the different genders look like. Just like how showing Genesect's different formes make the page more complete by showing what it looks like when holding specific items. --[[User:Landfish7|<span style="font-family:Tahoma;background:black"><font color="red">'''Land'''</font>]][[User talk:Landfish7|<span style="font-family:Tahoma;background:black"><small><font color="yellow">'''fish7'''</font></small></span></span>]]''' 02:05, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

It would be a good idea to make a little template that only shows one form of Genesect at a time (ie, normal, holding blaze cassette, holding aqua cassette, etc) like Arceus's one?

== Just to be sure before adding something.==
I wanted to add this:
 
Also does it look like Genesect's head has the same shape as the (hollow) 'standard' of its cannon. Making it look like its head could kinda 'click' on the 'standard'. And also seems the hollow standard to be big enough to contain the rest of its body, giving Genesect's design the concept of 'Transformers'.
 
in the Physiology or Origin. But I'm not sure about copyright, so could anybody tell me if it's right or not? [[User:Nickvang|Nickvang]] 15:11, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
 
:It's mostly correct. The turret doesn't really fit its head, but the trailer shows its legs retracting and the body fitting into that hollow section to turn into a ''hover tank''.  So yeah, this looks like Game Freak's attempt to homage the Insecticons. --[[User:KingStarscream|KingStarscream]] ([[User talk:KingStarscream|talk]]) 16:34, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Genesect's head is Clearly a Beat Box of some kind, it takes music cassettes in to change the type of the attack "Techno Blast", but there's no reference to this anywhere on the page.

==Genesect a reference to Neon Genesis Evangelion?==
http://i.imgur.com/WNgWa
 
I think Genesect may be an homage to Neon Genesis Evangelion. The colour of him and his shiny sprite look very similar to the Unit-01 and Unit-02 respectively. Even down to the secondary colours used on the eyes. The stripe on the abdomen looks like the stripe on the Evas midsections. The origin story of Genesect is also very similar. The Eva units were created from a humanoid alien and modified to be piloted. The eva units are actually biological creatures with armour and a cockpit attached.  Genesect's head looks similar to the mass produced eva units long heads. (Not pictured.) The choice of colours seems pretty deliberate. [[User:Flintlock|Flintlock]] ([[User talk:Flintlock|talk]]) 08:45, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

::::: I think Kabutops is the ancestor of Genesect, despite that Genesect is bug type. First of all, Kabutops shares a resemblance to Genesect. Second of all, it states on [[Genesect]] that before it was modified by [[Team Plasma]], it was a skilled and a ruthless hunter, while [[Kabutops]] was a fierce prehistoric predator. Next, there could be a possibility that the revived fossil was Kabutops because there couldn't be a pokemon fossil that when revived, would look like Genesect other than the Dome fossil when Kabuto evolves into Kabutops. Finally, Kabutops and Genesect both have some of the same features like, that they both have wide flattish heads,a provident chest, the pelvis sticks out,they both have blade hands, and their leg structures are almost the same. [[User:KoiFish|KoiFish]]
::::::This is starting to sound like a Forums discussion.

On Genesect's page it is stated that,unlike Furfrou's, Genesect's and Arceus' forms are not registered in the pokedex. As of ORAS this is no longer true. Both Genesect's and Arceus' forms are now counted in the dex in the same way as Furfrou's. --[[User:Hydrachomp|Hydrachomp]] ([[User talk:Hydrachomp|talk]]) 17:03, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
:I did that because the only info I had at the time was about Furfrou's update. I'll go ahead and remove them today. Also, remember to put four ~ to sign your comments. —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 16:53, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

One entry says Team Plasma added canon on its back, other one says they only upgraded it. Is this the same in the japanese version?--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#CC0000">Rocket</span>]] [[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#666666">Grunt</span>]]''' 12:49, 16 October 2020 (UTC)


I know this is a stupid question and I probably shouldn't ask it but I'm getting impatient. When will the Genesect event launch? They're launching all the other events but not Genesect, {{p|Meloetta}} and {{p|Keldeo}}. Why is that? It just doesn't make any sense to me. [[User:Pokedex493|Pokedex493]] 21:11, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
==Possible Action Figure Origin==
I had the realization some time ago that Genesect has some pretty strong action figure resemblances in addition to its robotic aesthetic. The shape, the way he transforms, the eyes that look like transparent plastic, but most notable, the blaster on his back having a definite resemblance to a plastic dart gun you'd find on transformers or toys in general. There's even a black button on top of the drive that one might press to fire a bolt on an action figure. To me the resemblance is pretty uncanny, but I haven't been able to find any specific source or confirmation of this, and I feel this may not be the most obvious thing to everyone. I'm trying to get other opinions before I just try to edit that change, but is this a type of thing I could put into the Origin section without specific proof? Really I'm just trying to gauge thoughts on this possible additional origin before just adding it because I'm ever so slightly on the fence about just adding it, though I feel strongly in the right about it. --[[User:Keifers|Keifers]] ([[User talk:Keifers|talk]]) 03:00, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
:I feel like we'd need more than just a physical resemblance, like textual evidence linking Genesect to action figures.

::Textual, as is like a more explicit connection confirmed by the game our an otherwise related source? [[User:Keifers|Keifers]] ([[User talk:Keifers|talk]]) 17:30, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
:::Textual evidence would be evidence from the games text, yes. Evidence from an official source would also be good.
