Read more ↓Unown is a unique Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II, known for its resemblance to the letters of the alphabet and other punctuation marks. Each Unown takes on a distinct shape, contributing to a full set of 28 forms, including the 26 letters of the Latin alphabet and two punctuation marks (exclamation point and question mark). These mysterious Pokémon are said to have existed in different dimensions long ago and are often found clinging to walls, their presence sometimes causing strange phenomena. In the Pokémon games, Unown are primarily found in ancient ruins, such as the Ruins of Alph in the Johto region, where their forms are tied to puzzles and lore surrounding ancient civilizations. Their diet and typical behavior are largely unknown, adding to their enigmatic nature. Culturally, Unown play a significant role in the Pokémon lore, particularly in the third Pokémon movie, "Spell of the Unown," where a large number of them collectively possess immense power, capable of altering reality based on a young girl's wishes. They do not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, making them a standalone species with a fascinating connection to language and history within the Pokémon world. Their unique design and mysterious background make them a memorable and intriguing part of the Pokémon universe.
