Biology

Physiology

Elgyem is an aqua-green extraterrestrial Pokémon with an oblong head with depressions on either side. It has black, symmetrical lines going down the front of its head. On the front of its head are shiny, green button-like eyes. Its hands have three finger-like digits: one red, one green, and one yellow. It has short, stubby legs and a small tail. Elgyem controls incredible psychic power, which it uses to squeeze its opponent's brains, causing them headaches. Overall, Elgyem has quite the welcoming and informative behavior. It is willing to help in stressful and otherwise difficult situations. However, Elgyem can become fully involved in something it feels to be important and protect that with its life.

Sprites

Appearances

Anime

Elgyem made its first anime appearance in "A UFO for Elgyem".

Trivia

  • Starting in Generation VI, Elgyem can learn Steel Wing via a TM despite neither being Steel-type nor having wings. This may have been a programming oversight (TM51 in Generation V was the Psychic-type Ally Switch and became Steel Wing in Generation VI), but due to the fact that it can learn this move in future games, many fans believe it to be a reference to conspiracy theories surrounding Area 51, an American military base in the Nevada desert where the US government is believed to be hiding aliens or alien technology. Bizarrely, it can learn Steel Wing in Generation VIII despite Steel Wing being TM30 and TM51 being Icicle Spear in that generation, which Elgyem can't learn.

Origin

Elgyem is based on an extraterrestrial life-form, most likely Greys or Little Green Men. The level it evolves at, Level 42, may reference The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, as the number 42 is stated to be the meaning of life, the universe, and everything. Its glowing fingers may also reference ET. Its fingers are also similar to the faces of the aliens that appear in the 'War Of Worlds' movie. Its PokéDex entries also suggest references to the Roswell incident and Area 51. Its Psychic-type could reference how some aliens in various media are able to use telekinesis to battle or abduct people. Its greenish color, big head, shortness, alien nature, and pupil-less, monochrome eyes (which in its shiny coloration are reddish-purple) may be a reference to the titular character of the Nickelodeon animated series Invader Zim, who's a short, big-headed, green-skinned alien with purplish-red, monochrome eyes.

Etymology

Elgyem's name comes from the term "Little Green Man", a type of hypothetical extraterrestrial life form commonly abbreviated as "LGM". The name might also have been taken from elegy and requiem, as it's found in the Celestial Tower, a Pokémon graveyard.

Rigurē likely comes from "little," 理(り) (ri, logic, as it's a Psychic-type), "gray" (as in gray aliens), and "little green man." It may also incorporate "ray," as energy-based weapons and attacks are often associated with aliens.

Lewsor, its French name, comes from Roswell (a city in New Mexico where some believe aliens crash-landed in 1947 and has thus embraced a space theme for several of its local businesses in order to promote tourism) spelled backwards and with only one "L".

Pygraulon, its German name, likely comes from "pygmy" (referring to its short stature), "grau" (German for gray), and "encephalon" (a vertebrate's brain).

Xiǎo​huī​guài​, its Mandarin Chinese name, comes from 小(xiǎo) (small), 灰(huī) (gray), and 怪(guài) (strange or possibly short for 怪物(guàiwu), which means monster or creature).
