Trivia[]
- It's revealed in Black and White 2 that Kyurem, along with Zekrom and Reshiram were all once part of a single Pokémon.
- Reshiram, along with Zekrom and Kyurem is part of the Tao Trio. Reshiram embodies dynamism.
- In Movie 14, Reshiram has the same roar as the monster Megaguirus, from the Godzilla franchise. Originally, this roar was Zekrom's, but for Movie 14, Zekrom was given the roar of Baragon, also from the Godzilla franchise. Megaguirus' roar had previously been used in Movie 11 when Zero's fighter released an attack.
- It has a strong resemblance with Blue-Eyes White Dragon of Yu-Gi-Oh due to having blue eyes and white body.
- Reshiram's voice when speaking telepathically is voiced by Shosuke Tanihara in Pokémon The Movie: Black and Marc Thompson in the movie's dub. Unlike the voices of Zekrom and Kyurem, however, Reshiram speaks in an elegant tone rather than a raspy one.
- Reshiram also appears in a Dream World minigame; if the WIFI Reshiram from the White version game is sent to the Dream World, in the special home Victini appears to the player, and in the minigame's intro, Victini fails to destroy the barrier alone, so the player must ask his/her WIFI Reshiram to help destroy the barrier by collecting power ups. At the end, Reshiram destroys the barrier by using a flame attack.
- It protects the PokéPark in PokéPark 2 while Zekrom protects Wish Park.
- In Hyperdimension Neptunia, a DLC weapon for Ram, the Staff of Ideals, is based on Reshiram when fused with Kyurem.
- Reshiram, alongside Zekrom, appeared during the 84th Annual Macy's Parade as special units, alongside the Pikachu balloon.
Origin[]
Reshiram, when paired with Zekrom, may be based on yin and yang, a concept originating in Chinese philosophy. Yin and yang are intended to represent dualism, which can be seen in the design of Reshiram which has a lighter, feminine, more natural appearance in contrast to Zekrom's darker, masculine, and more industrial appearance. It may also be based on deities in Zoroastrianism, two of which are depicted as equally powerful, though they represent different powers and values, with Reshiram being based on Ahura Mazda, who was associated with fire, light, and truth. Physically, Reshiram overall seems to resemble a dragon or bird.
Etymology[]
Reshiram comes from shiro (Japanese for "white"). Re was also used in its name as it sounds softer compared to the Ze in Zekrom's name. This was done due to Reshiram being considered a less physically powered Pokémon. The Rem in Reshiram's name may stem from Remus.
