Cobalion is a Steel and Fighting Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation V. Cobalion is a member of the Swords of Justice, a group of Legendary Pokemon introduced in Generation V, often called the Legendary musketeers by Pokémon fans. The Swords of Justice are Cobalion, alongside Terrakion, Virizion and Keldeo. These Pokemon were infamous for their ability Justified and their moves having a strong connection to combat and swordplay – similar to real life Musketeers. They are based on The Three Musketeers story by Alexandre Dumas.
