The '''Tao trio''', sometimes called the '''Tao dragon trio''' or the '''energy trio''', is the collective term used to refer to the three powerful [[legendary Pokémon]] of the [[Unova]] Region: {{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Zekrom}}, and {{p|Kyurem}}. According to Unova myths, the [[legendary trio]] was created during the war plaguing the region. | The '''Tao trio''', sometimes called the '''Tao dragon trio''' or the '''energy trio''', is the collective term used to refer to the three powerful [[legendary Pokémon]] of the [[Unova]] Region: {{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Zekrom}}, and {{p|Kyurem}}.

Much like members of other legendary trios, the three Pokémon have similar appearances. Each has {{t|Dragon}} as their primary type. Both Reshiram and Zekrom have a base stat total of 680 while Kyurem's is 660; however, both Black Kyurem and White Kyurem have a base stat total of 700. | Much like members of other legendary trios, the three Pokémon have similar appearances.

Each of the members of the trio has control of their own types and sides. Reshiram represents the concept of {{wp|yin and yang|yang}} and controls {{t|Fire}}, Zekrom represents the concept of {{wp|yin and yang|yin}} and controls {{t|Electric|Thunder}}, and Kyurem represents the concept of {{wp|Wuji (philosophy)|wuji}} (the absence of yin and yang) and controls {{t|Ice}}. | Each of the members of the trio has control of their own types and sides.

Iris: "But, but... The twin heroes sons' started the battle again! And an instant later, Reshiram and Zekrom destroyed Unova with fire and lightning! Then, they disappeared! But, but... If people work with Pokémon in the right way, we don't have to worry anymore about the work being destroyed. I mean, Reshiram and Zekrom worked hard for everyone and made a new region! So it should be alright, I think.--> | Iris: "But, but... The twin heroes sons' started the battle again! And an instant later, Reshiram and Zekrom destroyed Unova with fire and lightning!

Kyurem's origins were believed to be much different than those of the other two. The third dragon came down to the [[Pokémon world]] from an icy meteor and crashed into a place called [[Giant Chasm]]. An old legend in [[Lacunosa Town]] describing Kyurem claims that it would take people and Pokémon away from the town and eat them; this is why the town is now surrounded by a giant wall, and why none of its residents set foot outside their homes after dark. During {{v2|Black 2 and White 2|s}} however, an NPC claims that this story of Kyurem's origin might not be true. [[Drayden]] tells the player character that when the original dragon split into Reshiram and Zekrom, a third dragon was "created", or "leftover": Kyurem. The Pokédex entry for Kyurem also states that it is waiting for a hero to fill in the missing parts of its body with "truth and ideals", implying that Kyurem wishes to reunite with Reshiram and Zekrom. This is partially completed in-game with the creation of its [[Form differences#Kyurem|alternate formes]], Black Kyurem and White Kyurem. | Kyurem's origins were believed to be much different than those of the other two.

This is partially completed in-game with the creation of its [[Form differences#Kyurem|alternate formes]], Black Kyurem and White Kyurem, created by Kyurem fusing with Reshiram or Zekrom (but not both). The description for the [[DNA Splicers]] confirms this, stating that Kyurem and the second dragon were once one. | ||
