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 PokémonS, and one resembling futuristic relatives of contemporary PokémonV. None of them are capable of evolving, and their names do not follow regular naming conventions.
