The downloadable Keldeo is a level 100, Ordinary Form and comes with the following moves: Aqua Jet, Leer, Double Kick, and Bubble Beam. However, a quick trip to Mauville City’s Move Tutor in Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire will let you teach it the Secret Sword move.

Keldeo can be downloaded between 1st-24th October 2016 by connecting your Nintendo 3DS to the internet and following a few simple steps.
