==Biology==
Serperior is a primarily pale green, serpentine . Its face and throat are white, while its back is dark green. Curled, mint-colored patterns extend into the white portion of its face, and it has narrow red eyes. In the lower jaw, two fangs are visible when its mouth is open. There are two pointed yellow extensions on the back of its head. Coiled, dark green extensions spread out from the sides of its lower neck, forming a curving pattern lower down the body. It has now completely lost the legs from its previous stages and now must slither about due to its new, serpentine form; however, just below its neck, it has two small leaf-like arms on either side of its body, which it usually keeps folded behind its back. It has curved yellow markings around its middle and several palmate leaves on its tail.
Serperior will only attack with full force against opponents that are unfazed by its piercing glare, which is said to be able to halt its foes' movements. This intimidating stare and its regal form have earned it the title of "Lord of the Forest". It is capable of amplifying solar energy with its body.

===Origin===
Serperior is based on a , possibly the , , or . It may also draw inspiration from s. The shape of its head and the extensions on its collar could be influenced by a 's hood, a snake's shed skin, or the and flowers. The former, also known as "Strelitzia", was named after Queen , which may hint at Serperior's regal design.

Serperior's ability to amplify sunlight within its body, as noted in its Pokédex entry, may allude to King , who famously referred to himself as the "Sun King." Its white face may reference the fashion popular among European aristocracy in the 17th century. The way it keeps its small arms behind its back conveys an air of dominance and authority. 
Its body markings resemble the motifs that were popularized during the . The dark green design on its chest appears to form a , a French insignia commonly found on coats of arms belonging to European noble families and nations. Along with its regal appearance, Serperior's ability to immobilize opponents with its piercing gaze may be a reference to the , the legendary "king of serpents" in European folklore. Additionally, the basil-like leaves on its body may serve as a visual pun, as both "basilisk" and "basil" share the Greek root Βασιλεύς (Basileús), meaning "king," reinforcing Serperior's royal theme.
====Name origin====
Serperior may be a combination of serpent, superior, and possibly warrior and emperor.
Jalorda may be a combination of 蛇 ja (snake) and lord.
