Paradox Pokémon

Paradox Pokémon (Japanese: パラドックスポケモン Paradox Pokémon) are a group of Pokémon found in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. They have two subgroups, one made of Pokémon remembling ancient relatives of contemporary Pokémon^S, and one resembling futuristic relatives of contemporary Pokémon^V. None of them are capable of evolving, and their names do not follow regular naming conventions, thus have a different language in Spanish and Italian.
