Shaped like ancient writing, it is a huge mystery whether language or Unown came first.

Trivia

The GUARD Poké-POWER was later errata'd to add "by your opponent's Pokémon" before the final period; prior to the errata, it had been perceived that the Unown G worked for effects on the player's side as well as the opponent's.

Origin

Hidden Power is a move in the Pokémon games that Unown can learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Diamond.
