Asphere

**Asphere (Japanese: アスフィア / Asufia)** is a dual-type Ice/Dragon or Electric/Dragon Legendary Pokémon and the final Pokémon in the Regional Pokédex for Pokémon Altair and Sirius.

While it is not known to evolve to or from any other Pokémon, it has three different forms that are based on the game it is in, with Pokémon Vega having the last one.

Asphere's forms are version exclusive; so for example, you won't see the Altair Form in Sirius.

## Overview

As the most powerful Pokémon of Altair/Sirius, Asphere has incredible stats and a deep movepool that would make even Arceus jealous of its prowess.

Asphere can be a physical, special, or mixed attacker, and its signature move (Icebolt Wave) is among the strongest moves in the game for STAB bonus alone.

It has gems such as Thunderbolt, Extremespeed, Dragon Dance, etc. that basically make it unstoppable in any of the game's fights, Sylvia and the Champion included. (The only thing they're missing is Fire type moves but who needs that if you can blitz through everything in the game -- also Vega's form has plenty of *firepower* to hand out).

While the Altair form has more weaknesses for being part-Ice, it has more offensive power to make up for it. Both forms are ridiculously strong and can shrug off most attacks. Marvel Scale also boosts their defense if they have a status problem.

Basically if you ever want to breeze right through either of these Fakemon games, Asphere is your key choice.

## Notes

### Trivia

* Asphere's true identity is suggested to be that of a guardian deity, or possibly a ruler, of an old civilization that lived in Sphere City. This is shown through Braille writings found within the Sphere Ruins.
* The rival mistakenly calls Asphere "Asmodeus", which is actually the name of a mythological demon king. This is likely only a gag without any actual relevance.

Asphere seems to be the "Lugia" to the Meteoric Trio, having much higher base stats and power over them (makes you wonder why it was locked up in the Sphere Ruins the whole time).

Asphere is the only Pokémon with a BST of 720.

Asphere's Forms are the only Pokémon of the Ice/Dragon and Electric/Dragon typing.

###  Design Origin

Asphere seems to represent various stars and stellar atmospheres. Its Altair Forme, possessing the power of the constellation Aquila, has a Dragon/Ice typing. It is named after Altair, the brightest star in the Aquila constellation while its' Sirius Forme is a Dragon/Electric-type, and is likewise named after the brightest star of Canis Major. Finally, its Vega Forme is named after the brightest star of Lyra, hence the Dragon/Fire typing.

### Name Origin

Asphere's name is literally **A**tmo**sphere**.
