Read more ↓Unown are enigmatic Psychic-type Pokémon first introduced in Generation II. These ancient creatures resemble hieroglyphs or letters of the alphabet, and their forms are said to be reflections of the emotions and thoughts of living beings. They typically reside in ruins or other secluded, ancient places, often appearing in large groups. While individual Unown are not particularly powerful, their collective presence can have profound effects, as seen in the third Pokémon movie, "Spell of the Unown: Entei," where Molly Hale's wishes, amplified by a swarm of Unown, brought her fantasies to life. In the games, Unown primarily serve as collectible Pokémon, with players often tasked with finding all 28 forms (26 letters, plus '!' and '?'). They do not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, making them unique in that regard. Their mysterious nature and connection to ancient civilizations have made them a subject of fascination for both in-game researchers and real-world fans, often sparking theories about their origins and true capabilities. Their unique "Hidden Power" move in the games changes type based on the individual Unown's IVs, further emphasizing their diverse forms.
