Read more ↓Yveltal is a legendary Dark/Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI, first appearing in Pokémon X and Y. Known as the Destruction Pokémon, Yveltal is said to absorb the life force of all living things when its wings and tail feathers spread wide and glow red. This process, known as Oblivion Wing, leaves behind a desolate landscape. In contrast to its counterpart, Xerneas, which represents life, Yveltal embodies death and destruction, creating a powerful thematic duality within the Kalos region's lore. Its design is striking, featuring a large, bird-like body predominantly black and red, with sharp, angular features that convey its formidable power. Yveltal plays a central role in the plot of Pokémon Y, where Team Flare attempts to harness its destructive energy. Its presence in the anime, particularly in "Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction," further cemented its status as a fearsome yet captivating legendary Pokémon. In competitive play, its unique typing and powerful abilities often make it a formidable force on teams.
