Denryu is the Japanese name for Ampharos, the Electric-type Pokémon that appears in Pocket Monsters XY. It is not a human character with a separate first and last name, so the same name is used as its full name. In the series, Denryu is generally portrayed as a powerful, friendly Pokémon associated with bright light and electrical energy. Its role is typically as a Pokémon companion or battler rather than a central speaking character, and it may appear in training, battles, or supporting scenes.
