Origins
Etymology
Genesect's name is likely a portmanteau of the words "genesis", meaning beginning because it is an ancient Pokémon, or "genetic" because of its altered genetic makeup and "insect" due to its is Bug typing.
Trivia
- If the player takes a Genesect to the P2 Laboratory and shows it to the scientist there, he will battle the player. If the player wins, the scientist gives him/her two out of the four drives, with the two being different depending on the version of the game.
- Genesect is the first Bug-type Legendary Pokémon, not counting Arceus while holding the Insect Plate.
- Genesect's move, Techno Blast, is somewhat similar to Arceus's Judgement, basing its typing on its held item.
- Genesect is classified as the Paleozoic Pokémon because it existed during the Paleozoic Era, a time period more than 300 million years ago.
- In the P2 Laboratory, there is a memo presumably written by Ghetsis stating that Lord N had modified what is to be the strongest Pokémon ever until he abandoned the project, likely because N is compassionate to the feelings of Pokémon.
- Coro Coro leaked it and revealed on July 11, 2012.roCoro
- Genesect is shown on a teaser after the pre-release of the fifteenth Pokémon movie.
- Even though Genesect uses its signature move, Techno Blast, Genesect doesn't receive STAB from it.
- Genesect is the only prehistoric Pokémon that is not a Rock-type.
- It is also the only prehistoric Pokémon that can not be restored from a fossil.
- Some speculate Genesect to be an engineered Kabutops, since the Pokédex of Genesect and Kabuto both state they existed 300 million years ago, as Kabutops likely existed at the same time as Kabuto. Other evidence is that both Pokémon share a similar design.
