Keldeo has two forms: Ordinary Form and Resolute Form, with the latter being activated when it learns the move Secret Sword. Its natural habitat is often depicted as serene, secluded areas, particularly near water bodies, where it can train its incredible speed and sword-like horn.

Its behavior is characterized by a strong sense of justice and a desire to protect the weak, often seen training intensely to master its unique abilities. In the games, Keldeo is a special event Pokémon, and in the anime, it plays a significant role in the movie "Kyurem vs. the Sword of Justice," where it strives to prove itself worthy of its title. Its Fighting-type makes it strong against Normal, Ice, Rock, Dark, and Steel types, while its Water-type offers advantages against Fire, Ground, and Rock. Keldeo's design, inspired by a young unicorn, contributes to its widespread appeal and cultural significance within the Pokémon universe.
