===Origin===
Kyogre may be modeled after the Earth's oceans and may be an impersonation of the ocean. It's conflict with Groudon may be based on that of {{wp|Behemoth}} and {{wp|Leviathan}} who would start a battle that would kill them both at the end of time. Like Kyogre, Leviathan is associated with the sea, and the Hebrew word for Leviathan is now used for whales in modern Hebrew, which may be why Kyogre's appearance also draws inspiration from whales, especially the {{wp|orca}}. However, Leviathan does not resemble Kyogre in traditional depictions.
