===Counterparts=== | |||
A set of two [[version-exclusive Pokémon]] and their evolutionary families, each found in a different game, sometimes referred to as '''parallels'''. These counterparts may be identified by commonalities such as typing, [[base stats]], evolution method, and the locations where these Pokémon may be found. The term may also be used to describe Pokémon that are more common in one game version than another, as well as Pokémon that are only exclusive in a single pair of games. | |||
