Cyclizar (Japanese:モトトカゲMototokage) is a dual-typeDragon/NormalPokémon introduced inGeneration IX.

While it is not known toevolve into or from any other Pokémon, theParadox PokémonKoraidon andMiraidon are said to be either ancient and future relatives of Cyclizar, respectively, or versions of it from parallel timelines.

Biology

Cyclizar is a green reptilian Pokémon resembling a lizard. Its head is mostly black, with a green coloration between itscasque and lower jaw, along with orange circular cheeks. Its neck, paw pads, and tail are also black; the latter has a white tip. Its rear has a covering resembling a motorcycle seat, located at the base of its tail. On its throat is a black sac with a white inner coloring, resembling a rubber tire.

Cyclizar has a mild temperament. It has been kept by humans and used for transport since ancient times, with depictions of this behavior found in murals dating back 10,000 years ago. This relationship appears to be mutualistic since the warmth of Cyclizar's rider helps it avoid getting cold, along with lifting its spirit. Cyclizar stores energy in the folds of its throat, allowing it to run continuously over long distances while carrying a passenger. When carrying a human, Cyclizar can reach a speed of over 70 mph (120 km/h). Cyclizar maintains its balance and absorbs shock while running by using its hard head and thick yet supple tail. It also uses its head and tail to attack during battles.^[1] Cyclizar is strong enough to carry luggage and equipment used by humans. It has been seen equipped with metal seats and headlights, allowing humans to ride it more easily and navigate. In other cases, it has been seen equipped with a jet seat, allowing it to move faster as seen withTeam Star.

BothKoraidon andMiraidon share a resemblance to Cyclizar, a detail noted in their own Pokédex entries and by several people inPaldea; it is later confirmed in the aforementioned games that they are ancient and futuristic relatives of Cyclizar, respectively. According toJacq, Cyclizar has threeforms. First, Cyclizar's basic form is where it walks on all four legs. Second, the battle form is where it stands on its hind legs in order to battle. Finally, the ride form, which it assumes when humans ride on it. When Cyclizar is being ridden on, it puffs up its throat sac and curls its tail, making the appearance of wheels.

Trivia

• Cyclizar shares itscategory withSkiddo andGogoat. They are all known as the Mount Pokémon.
• Cyclizar has several unique attributes:
  • It is the onlyDragon-typePokémon in theFieldEgg Group.
  • It is theonly Pokémon with a base stat total of 501.
  • It is the onlyGeneration IX Pokémon with aParadox Pokémon counterpart.
    • It is also the only known Pokémon that is shorter than itsfuture Paradox Pokémon relative.
• Cyclizar is one of three Pokémon with more than one Paradox Pokémon counterpart, the others beingDonphan andVolcarona.

Origin

Cyclizar may be based on lizards, most notably theanole and the generaSitana andSarada — the latter two are collectively known as fan-throated lizards. It also has traits from other lizard species: its foot pads resemble those of thegecko, its tail resembles the prehensile tail of thechameleon, and itscasque appears to be based on that of the chameleon or thehelmeted lizards. Some elements of its design appear to be based on parts of a motorcycle: its casque resembles both a motorcycle windshield and a helmet, its cheeks are similar to turn signal lights, its rear looks like a motorcycle seat, and the protrusion on its chest together with its tail resemble rubber tires, the latter especially when curled. The idea of being both lizard and motorcycle, as well as Cyclizar'sDragon typing, may be inspired by thebicycle dragon.

Cyclizar may represent a "missing link" betweenKoraidon andMiraidon, with its anatomy reflecting an intermediate state between the two. For example, Koraidon's second and third digits are separated but connected by a skin membrane, whereas Cyclizar's seem to be partially fused, and Miraidon's are fully fused. Cyclizar and Miraidon share an elongated crest, subtympanic shields, a beak-like snout, and a lack of feathers, while Cyclizar and Koraidon share black tire-like scales on the tail and chest region, black pads on the inner sides of their feet, and a lack of exposed claws.

Name origin

Cyclizar may be a combination ofcycle andlizard.

Mototokage may be a combination ofmoto (Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese for motorcycle) and 蜥蜴tokage (lizard).
