In an old legend in [[Lacunosa Town]], a large meteor fell from the sky, apparently containing {{p|Kyurem}}. At night, the "monster" would bring cold winds and take people and Pokémon away, to eat them. The town residents then surrounded Lacunosa Town with a wall to keep Kyurem out, and a rule was set on the town that forbade anyone from leaving the town at night, and encouraged them to stay in their homes. Even to this day, the residents remain in their houses at night and the wall is still standing. Kyurem lives in the [[Giant Chasm]], the impact crater of the meteor which supposedly brought Kyurem to [[Unova]]. However, an NPC also states that this myth could possibly be false and {{2v|Black|White|2}} states that Kyurem is actually what was left when the original dragon split into {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}. | In an old legend in [[Lacunosa Town]], a large meteor fell from the sky, apparently containing {{p|Kyurem}}.

The antenna on Dusknoir's head allows it to receive transmissions from the [[Ghost World|spirit world]], which tell it to bring people there. The band on its body can open, similar to a mouth. It uses this ability to take spirits into its body and carry them home or as it travels to unknown places. | The antenna on Dusknoir's head allows it to receive transmissions from the [[Ghost World|spirit world]], which tell it to bring people there.

Dusknoir [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dusclops}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Reaper Cloth]]. The Japanese name of the Reaper Cloth (れいかいのぬの ''Spirit World Cloth'') indicates that it comes from the Ghost World. | Dusknoir [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dusclops}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Reaper Cloth]].

Necrozma originates from Ultra Space. It can open [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and travel through them back and forth. | Necrozma originates from Ultra Space. It can open [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and travel through them back and forth. | ||
===Additional Cases=== | |||
A handful of Pokémon may fit into either the extraterrestrial or extradimensional categories, but do not quite meet the necessary requirements for either. For example, [[p|Minior]] is said to be formed in the Ozone layer of Earth, therefore coming from space but not a truly different planet; likewise, [[p|Rayquaza]] is stated to live in the Ozone layer as well, but comes to Earth in times of crisis and is known to roost at [[Sky Pillar]]. Also of note is [[p|Hoopa]]; while it is known to be capable of opening portals to other worlds and dimensions, no evidence exists to suggest it actually originated in one. Finally, several Pokémon species can be captured in the [[Ultra Space Wilds]] that are known to be native to the Pokémon world, among them [[p|Drapion]], [[p|Dragalge]] and several [[Legendary Pokémon]]. It is unknown whether or not these Pokémon are native to Ultra Space in addition to the Pokémon world, were brought there by Ultra Wormholes created by the Cosmog line, or are present due to some other factor. Zinnia's theory from Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire suggests that Ultra Space may in fact be an alternate version of the Pokémon world itself, supported by the presence of Anabel in Sun and Moon (who hails from the world in which [[Mega Evolution]] never existed) and evidence which suggests that [[Ultra Ruin]] may in fact be an alternate version of [[Hau'oli City]]. There are many cases of Pokémon that have been suggested to hail from other worlds, but have never been confirmed to do so. Ultimately, the exact extent of extraterrestrial and extradimensional Pokémon remains to be seen. | |||
