A few of these Pokémon, as a result of new evolutions, become a part of evolutionary families with [[List of Pokémon with branched evolutions|branched evolutions]]. Pokémon which evolve into a Pokémon of a previous generation, instead of from it, are always [[baby Pokémon]].

Later generations have modified old families by introducing [[regional variant]]s of older Pokémon adapted for life in different regions. Certain families entirely consist of variant forms while others share an unevolved state before diversifying, much like a branched evolution. Certain Pokémon will only evolve from a specific regional variant and, therefore, have no counterpart.

* Generation IV introduced the most evolutionary relatives to Pokémon from previous generations, with 29, and Generation VI introduced the fewest evolutionary relatives to Pokémon from previous generations, with only one, {{p|Sylveon}}. The only generations that didn't introduce any new cross-generational evolutions (not counting [[regional variant]]s) are Generation V and Generation VII.
