'''Genesect''' ({{ja|ゲノセクト|Genosekuto}}, ''Genesect'') is a creature from the {{uv|Pokémon}} media franchise.

==Origin==
Genesect is a dual {{iw|bulbapedia|Bug|type}}/{{iw|bulbapedia|Steel|type}}-type {{s|bulbapedia|Mythical Pokémon}} introduced in {{s|bulbapedia|Generation V}}, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #649 as the "Paleozoic Pokémon". Genesect was created by {{s|bulbapedia|Team Plasma}} from a fossil of an ancient insectoid Pokémon, even though their former leader, {{s|bulbapedia|N}}, had the project cancelled, as he felt that Pokémon are perfect beings, and modifications through science would ruin their beauty. Team Plasma technologically enhanced it, including adding a cannon which it uses to execute its {{iw|bulbapedia|signature move}}, {{iw|bulbapedia|Techno Blast|move}}.

Techno Blast is a special {{iw|bulbapedia|Normal|type}}-type move with 120 base power (85 prior to {{s|bulbapedia|Generation VI}}) and 100% accuracy. The move changes in type depending on the {{s|bulbapedia|Drive}} Genesect holds, though it can still use the move without a held Drive.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
===As a Poké Ball Pokémon===

Genesect appears as a [[Poké Ball]] and [[Master Ball]] Pokémon in this game. Upon release, it jumps around the stage, shooting bolts of low knockback Techno Blast bolts at fixed intervals with the cannon on its back. Genesect will keep firing Techno Blasts until it lands, although it will most commonly fire twice if on a flat surface.

Upon jumping and landing twice, Genesect will proceed to fire a powerful, [[unblockable]] laser with infinite range, similar to the [[Daybreak]]'s except with less KO potential, though still KOing early at a decent 70%. Genesect will repeat this process again before disappearing.

In {{for3ds}}, Genesect will not appear until having played [[Endless mode|Endless Smash]] at least once.

==Trivia==
*Genesect popping out during [[Mewtwo]]'s character trailer for ''Smash 4'' may reference their significant appearance together in the Pokémon movie, ''[[bulbapedia:M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'', and the fact that they are both genetically modified Pokémon.
