Speed is the name of the game in the Pokémon world, and these Pokes can move faster than the blink of an eye.

Pokémon is home to some of the strongest pocket monsters around, and also some of the fastest. Not every Pokémon is quick on their feet (or wings, or fins), but a truly fast Pokémon can be a massive asset to any team.

Having a speedy Pokémon is a bit of a luxury, as the player with the quickest Poke is always destined to go first on every turn. Among the large conglomerate of quick and agile Pokémon are some that have can move outrageously high speeds. These ten Pokémon can move so fast, some don't even need Agility just to go first.

10 Shadow Rider Calyrex - 150

Calyrex can morph into two different forms with the Reins of Unity, becoming either Ice Rider Calyrex or Shadow Rider Calyrex. Whereas Ice Rider is more of a tank, Shadow Rider Calyrex ranks among the fastest Pokémon around.

In addition to being a very speedy Pokémon, Shadow Rider Calyrex is also extremely powerful, owing to its 165 special attack. It can spam its signature move Astral Barrage at free will, and it comes with no drawbacks. In terms of STAB, Shadow Rider Calyrex has one of the best type combinations in Ghost/Psychic.

9 Mega Aerodactyl - 150

Mega Evolution gives Aerodactyl a moderate speed boost, improving his overall speed from 130 to 150. Combined with additional boosts to its attack and defenses, this fossil Pokémon becomes a valuable asset with a wide bevy of moves.

Because of its speed, Mega Aerodactyl can bust out powerful moves such as Stone Edge and Earthquake before its opponent can even get a chance to strike. The Tough Claws ability only makes Mega Aerodactyl's moves even stronger, which is a plus given the range that the fossil Pokémon has in its moveset.

8 Deoxys (Normal Forme) - 150

While it's not the speed form, this base form of Deoxys is still pretty fast with a starting speed of 150. It's still frail on the defensive end and can't take too many hits, but all that can be forgiven thanks to Deoxys' immense power and speed.

Normal Forme Deoxys isn't the best form of the Deoxys, as the DNA Pokémon's three other forms are seen as superior. But that isn't to say that this base form of Deoxys isn't useless, as its speed helps it be a major hand in support.

7 Deoxys (Attack Forme) - 150

It's not often that fans see a legendary Pokémon with putrid defenses. Attack Forme Deoxys's special defense is tied for worst among all Pokémon, and its physical defense is only better than a handful of Pokémon such as Pichu, Smoochum, and Happiny - all of whom are baby Pokémon.

That said, however, Attack Forme Deoxys is still a very quick Pokémon, with a speed stat of 150. Combine that with its high physical/special attack and deep movepool, and Attack Forme Deoxys makes for one heck of a glass cannon if put in the right hands.

6 Mega Alakazam - 150

Alakazam is already a speedy Pokémon, with a very high base of 120. When it mega evolves into Mega Alakazam, its speed grows to 150 - making it faster than other speedy special attackers such as Gengar and even Mewtwo.

Mega Alakazam's speed makes him perfect for pulling off a sweep near the end of the battle, with a plethora of strong moves allowing it to knock out Pokémon effortlessly. The last thing anyone would want to face near the match's end is a Mega Alakazam unleashing a Future Sight.

5 Electrode - 150

Electrode is pretty average across the board, but there's no denying that it's a very fast Pokémon with its 150 base speed. Being one of the few Electric-type Pokémon to know both Reflect and Light Screen, Electrode is an effective dual screener.

Aside from setting up defensive measures for the team, Electrode is also capable of using Taunt to prevent the status moves of opposing Pokémon. It can Volt Switch out of any situation when the time calls for it., and in desperate measures unleash an Explosion to take out the opposition.

4 Pheromosa - 151

Pheromosa is a brittle being compared to the other Pokémon Ultra Beasts. Both its defenses are poor, and thanks to its Bug/Fighting typing, any powerful Fire, Fairy, Psychic, or even Flying-type move would make this lissome Pokémon down for the count.

Pheromosa's best trait among the Ultra Beasts, however, is its speed - having a base speed of 151. Knocking out a Pokémon with a move like High Jump Kick or Bug Buzz activates the Beast Boost ability, which only raises Pheromosa's speed after every Pokémon KO'd.

3 Ninjask - 156

Ever since its introduction back in Gen III, Ninjask has always been one of the fastest Pokémon on the block. It can work as a pivot with U-Turn, or be a revenge killer after boosting its attack with a Swords Dance.

As if its 160 base speed isn't threatening enough, Ninjask can boost its speed to unfathomable heights with its Speed Boost ability. Speed Boosts raises Ninja's already high speed by one stage, which makes moves like Protect come in handy. It's an ability that certainly makes up for Ninjask's middling stats.

2 Deoxys (Speed Forme) - 160

Just as the name implies, Speed Forme Deoxys is the fastest out of Deoxys's forms, with a blazing speed of 180. Its bulk for the most part is fairly solid, although it's not the offensive threat that base form and speed form Deoxys are.

Where Speed Forme Deoxys makes its bread and butter is being a utility Pokémon. Stealth Rock, Taunt, and Magic Coat are just some of the support moves that the DNA Pokémon can use at the start of a battle. Because of just how fast it is, Speed Forme Deoxys is arguably the best lead Pokémon one can have.

1 Regieleki - 200

Regieleki was introduced in Gen VIII as one of the new Legendary titans, and it's by far the fastest Pokémon to have ever existed. Having a whopping base speed of 200 means that this electron Pokémon is guaranteed to go fast no matter what - unless their opponent has a priority move up their sleeve.

If that isn't enough, Regieleki also has the unique ability, Transistor, which multiplies the attack of any Electric-type move by 1.5. Anyone facing this Pokémon ought to be wary of a Thunderbolt - and an occasional Volt Switch.
