Yveltal (Japanese: イベルタル Yveltal) is a dual-type Dark/Flying legendary Pokémon.

Most information regarding this Pokémon is unknown.

Yveltal is the version mascot of Pokémon Y.

Biology

Yveltal are large avian-like Pokémon. Their body is dark in coloration and is adorned with greyish patterns along their underside. Their wings and tails have three points extending along the edges, close to where they meet the body. There are five large claws on each appendage, three of which curve inwards. Their underside is bright red, with branching, black markings. Similar markings are present on Yveltal's head and neck.

They have a pointed, beak-like snout. Black horns extend from above their blue eyes, with a sharply curved portion pointing forward and thinner prongs facing the rear. A feathery grey ruff encircles their neck and billows out over their back. Yveltal have small, birdlike legs with powerful talons. Like the rest of their underside, the legs are red with black adornments, and their talons are grey. Each foot has two toes facing forward and one pointing backwards. When their wings and tail are fully extended, Yveltal resemble the English letter Y.
