XD001 or Shadow Lugia

Shadow Pokémon are Pokemon whose hearts where corrupted and locked behind several "doors" keeping the light from their heart from shining through. Constant care and battle are needed to unlock the doors to the Pokemon's heart. After all the doors are unlocked the player can then purify the Pokemon using the Relic Stone in Agate Village or the Purification Chamber in the Pokémon HQ Lab.

Creation

Cipher created each Shadow Pokemon from his lab located close to the center of the Orre region. In the lab Ein tried to perfect the formula for a Pokemon that was not afraid to attack other trainers. Once he found out that each Pokemon's heart could be locked away he used this to create the shadow Pokemon, perfecting his formula. However, due to the amount of corruption flowing from the Pokemon it is possible to tell the difference between a normal "Pure" Pokemon and a "Shadow Pokemon". Only certain eyes can catch the strange, dark aura coming from them.

The Strongest Shadow Pokémon

File:ShadowPokémon.png

An example of a shadow Pokemon with its dark aura visible.

The "strongest" Shadow Pokémon is usually considered to be Shadow Lugia, or XD001. Lugia, already being the strongest Pokemon ever captured by Cipher, it was turned into a Shadow Pokemon, like in the first game.
