The '''lake guardians''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|湖の神々|みずうみのかみがみ}}''' ''lake gods''), or '''lake trio''', is a term used to describe the [[Legendary trio]] residing in the three lakes of [[Sinnoh]]: {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. They are meant to represent knowledge, emotion, and willpower, respectively. They are based on the {{wp|Imperial Regalia of Japan}}: the {{wp|Yata no Kagami}} (wisdom), {{wp|Yasakani no Magatama}} (benevolence), and {{wp|Kusanagi}} (valor). Parts of their names come from fantasy creatures: {{wp|pixie}}s, {{wp|sprite}}s and {{wp|elf|elves}}, respectively. The other parts of their names come from pronouns: you ('''U'''xie), me ('''Me'''sprit), and us ('''Az'''elf). | The '''lake guardians''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|湖の神々|みずうみのかみがみ}}''' ''lake gods''), or '''lake trio''', is a term used to describe the [[Legendary trio]] residing in the three lakes of [[Sinnoh]]: {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}.
