Cresselia appears on the [[Spear Pillar]] stage as one of three Pokémon who appear in the center (The others being Dialga and Palkia). Cresselia acts completely different than the other two in terms of attacks it uses. It'll often shoot {{m|Psycho Cut}}s around the field, and sometimes shoot one large Psycho Cut as if it were a boomerang, hitting anyone that touches it.
