Its appearance is truly distinct, resembling a massive bundle of electrical cables and wires, with its head forming a spiked, star-like shape. This unique physiology allows it to absorb and emit electricity with incredible power. In the lore, Ultra Beasts are mysterious, extradimensional Pokémon that occasionally cross over into the Alola region through Ultra Wormholes, causing various phenomena. Xurkitree's behavior is often described as erratic and aggressive, driven by its need to absorb vast amounts of electricity, sometimes leading it to drain power grids or strike lightning repeatedly. Its diet consists purely of electrical energy, which it can draw from natural sources like lightning storms or artificial ones like power plants. As an Ultra Beast, it does not have an evolutionary line in the traditional sense, but rather exists as a singular, powerful entity. Its Electric typing makes it effective against Water and Flying types, while being vulnerable to Ground-type attacks. In the games, Xurkitree is a formidable opponent and a rare catch, symbolizing the exotic and dangerous nature of the Ultra Wormholes. In the anime, it has appeared in episodes showcasing the Ultra Guardians' efforts to manage Ultra Beast incursions, highlighting its destructive potential and the challenges it poses. Its bizarre yet captivating design has cemented its place as one of the more memorable Ultra Beasts, embodying the strange and wondrous aspects of the Pokémon universe.
