In order to change form, Meloetta must know the attack Relic Song. Take Meoetta to Cafe Sonata in Castelia City to teach it this move.
However, unlike past events that feature Mythical Pokémon, Genesect can only be obtained via a special item purchased by trainers for a limited time. Similar to the Regigigas event in 2019, trainers who purchase this item will get an early attempt at catching Genesect.Mar 19, 2020
- Genesect is a Bug/Steel Pokemon with high offensive stats, relatively poor bulk, and a spammy moveset. Due to the CP cap of Great League, Genesect's performance very closely resembles that of Scizor, another Pokemon with the same typing, very similar stat distribution, and almost identical movesets.
- It has two red eyes and a wide mouth with exposed white teeth, giving it a grinning appearance. It carries a powerful laser-firing cannon on its back that was upgraded and added onto it by Team Plasma when they made the modifications to it. Genesect's thorax is powerfully-built, and it has a heavily armored metal exoskeleton.
- Genesect (ゲノセクト Genosect) is a Bug/Steel-type Mythical Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
- Genesect is an ancient species that lived over 300 million years ago. It is unknown where Genesect originally resided, but its fossil was restored by Team Plasma scientists, who added cybernetic attachments to it. Genesect does not evolve. Over 300 million years ago, it was feared as the strongest of hunters.
