Read more ↓Unown are enigmatic Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II. These peculiar creatures resemble ancient hieroglyphs or letters of the alphabet, with 28 distinct forms, including 26 based on the Latin alphabet and two based on punctuation marks (exclamation point and question mark). They are often found in ruins and ancient sites, appearing in groups and exhibiting a hive mind. Unown possess the ability to warp reality when many of them gather, as famously depicted in the third Pokémon movie, "Spell of the Unown: Entei," where their collective power brought Molly Hale's wishes to life. Their existence is shrouded in mystery, with many theories surrounding their origins and purpose. Unlike most Pokémon, Unown do not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, making them a unique anomaly within the Pokémon world. Their type matchups make them vulnerable to Bug, Ghost, and Dark-type attacks, while they resist Fighting and Psychic-type moves. In the games, Unown typically only learn the move Hidden Power, reflecting their unique and somewhat limited combat capabilities, yet their lore makes them fascinating.
