Read more ↓Yveltal, the Destruction Pokémon, is a legendary Dark/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI alongside Xerneas. It is known for its ability to absorb the life force of living things, turning into a cocoon when its life comes to an end, only to reawaken later. In the games, Yveltal is the mascot of Pokémon Y, playing a pivotal role in the narrative as the counterpart to Xerneas, representing destruction and death in contrast to Xerneas's life-giving properties. Its design, resembling a fearsome bird of prey with large, dark wings and a vibrant red body, evokes its destructive power. Yveltal’s behavior is often depicted as predatory, consuming the energy of its surroundings. In the anime, it features prominently in "Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction," showcasing its immense power and its cyclical nature of life and death. Type matchups for Yveltal include weaknesses to Electric, Ice, Rock, and Fairy types, while being resistant to Ghost, Dark, and Grass types, and immune to Ground and Psychic thanks to its Flying typing. Its existence underscores the delicate balance of nature within the Pokémon world, where creation and destruction are two sides of the same coin.
