Yveltal (Super Mystery Dungeon)

Yveltal (Japanese: イベルタル Yveltal) is a character in and acts as one of the main antagonists.
==History==
Yveltal first appears on Revelation Mountain after tricks the hero into unsealing the Luminous Water, which would have posed a threat to his and Nuzleaf's goals. Upon appearing, he and Nuzleaf unleash their combined power and turn the hero, partner, , and into stone. After the two claim the Luminous Water for themselves, Yveltal announces to the world that he plans to bring an end to all Pokémon, and he turns many of the world's inhabitants to stone.
Yveltal is not seen again until the player's entourage (consisting of the player, their partner, , , , and ) reaches the end of the Road to Primeval Forest. As they approach the Tree of Life, Nuzleaf, the three , and Yveltal arrive to stop them. However, all of them (except for the one Beheeyem who returned to his senses earlier) uncharacteristically writhe in pain, suggesting that Yveltal and its minions are being controlled against their will by the true antagonist of the game: Dark Matter.
Regardless, they regain composure and attempt to turn the player's entourage to stone, but they are protected by the player and partner's Harmony Scarves. After this failure, the two parties engage in a massive battle, and Yveltal and his minions are defeated. They start writhing again, but then become freed from their possession, confused about their situation. They have little time to make sense of anything before they are quickly warped away by Dark Matter.
The player and partner find Yveltal again inside the Tree of Life, where he is being tormented by Dark Matter's power, along with Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem. After they free the latter, the player and partner dispel the darkness around Yveltal, freeing him from Dark Matter's control. Yveltal asks them why they would save him, stating that he must be held responsible for his crimes against the world, despite being controlled while committing them. He is further struck by their honest intent when they ask him to help Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem escape, and he disappears with no verbal response.
After the player and partner confront Dark Matter itself, Yveltal arrives with Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem in tow; they all rebel against Dark Matter in an attempt to atone for their crimes. However, Dark Matter retaliates and turns its former pawns to stone. Despite this, when all seems lost, the player hears Yveltal and the others' voices encouraging them to never give up. When Dark Matter is finally destroyed, Yveltal is restored, along with all other Pokémon that had been petrified.
When the player's team reaches , they gain access to the , where Yveltal awaits them on the bottom floor. When they reach it, Yveltal seeks further atonement by connecting with the player's team and giving them the , one of the Ancient Treasures.
