Line 44: Line 44:
Nihilego is an [[Ultra Beast]] that resembles a jellyfish. The bell is semi-translucent and encircled with several white, star-shaped markings. The wavy rim of the bell flares outward and is bright blue. Its tentacles appear gelatinous and give it a vaguely humanoid shape. Several tentacles mesh together forming the appearance of a cape or long hair, while four shorter tentacles resemble shorter hair and arms. Two long tentacles make up the legs of the human shape. In addition to its shape, it is sometimes seen acting like a young girl. According to its concept art, Nihilego's body is made of various types of glass.

Nihilego is a parasitic organism and, by latching onto one's head, is capable of injecting a neurotoxin that subtly alters the thoughts and actions of any human or Pokémon that becomes its host. This neurotoxin stimulates intense feelings of excitement while causing a loss of inhibitions, which acts to forcibly bring out any latent potential within the host while wearing away at their minds. During this time, people and Pokémon infested with Nihilego are known to become much more violent. Nihilego's exact levels of intelligence are unknown, but according to [[Wicke]], the [[Aether Foundation]]'s research suggests that it acts mainly on a self-preservation instinct.<ref>https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/ultra-beasts/</ref> In the [[JN111|anime]], Nihilego are capable of creating illusions and seeing the memories of humans. The anime also showed that Nihilego can demonstrate emotions other than self-preservation and the ability to heal people.
