A total of four Paldean forms were introduced in [[Generation IX]]. In addition, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet | A total of four Paldean forms were introduced in [[Generation IX]]. | ||
In addition, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet introduced the [[ecologically similar Pokémon]] lines: the {{p|Wiglett}}, {{p|Toedscool}}, and {{p|Poltchageist}} lines, whose designs heavily resemble the {{p|Diglett}}, {{p|Tentacool}}, and {{p|Sinistea}} lines, respectively. Despite their similar appearances, these Pokémon are not regional forms, as their [[Pokédex]] entries confirm them to be separate species. Their resemblance to pre-existing Pokémon may be inspired by the real-world phenomenon of {{wp|convergent evolution}}. | |||
Generation IX also introduced the [[Paradox Pokémon]], which are also considered to be a separate species of Pokémon despite resembling existing species, though they are theorized to be related to those species in some way. | |||
