Pokemon Fan Creates Incredible Unown Tablets

A Pokémon enthusiast has crafted a stunning series of clay tablets featuring the enigmatic Unown Pokémon. These meticulously designed tablets utilize the unique Unown alphabet to spell out various messages, and even include a special cameo by a legendary Mythical Pokémon.

Unown, a truly unique Pokémon even within the vast Pokémon universe, first appeared in Generation II. Its distinctive characteristic is its 28 forms, each representing a letter of the Latin alphabet. This Pokémon played a significant role in the third Pokémon movie, alongside Entei.

The artist, Higher-Elo-Creative, showcased their impressive creations on the Pokémon subreddit, receiving overwhelming praise from fellow fans. The tablets, designed to resemble ancient artifacts, are lauded for their exceptional artistry and craftsmanship. Higher-Elo-Creative invited suggestions for future tablet inscriptions, sparking a lively discussion within the community. The artist's own tablets feature messages such as "Power," "Unown," "Game Over," "Home," and "Your Journey Begins."

The final tablet depicts Mew subtly peeking from behind artificial foliage. While not a perfect replica, it evokes the Ancient Mew card distributed during premiere screenings of Pokémon The Movie 2000: The Power of One. The inclusion of Mew, an ancient Mythical Pokémon, is a fitting thematic choice. Many fans inquired about the creation process, learning that the tablets are made from foam. Higher-Elo-Creative also revealed that these unique pieces are available for purchase through their shop.

Unown's Absence, Yet Enduring Appeal

While Unown isn't considered competitively viable by most players, it remains a fascinating challenge and a sought-after collectible. Completing the Unown alphabet is a major goal for many dedicated fans and completionists. However, Unown's absence from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet was a disappointment for some. Despite this, the Pokémon's enduring popularity is evident, with fans proposing new Unown forms based on additional alphabet symbols and icons.

The future of Unown in the Pokémon franchise remains uncertain. Whether it will reappear in Pokémon Legends: Z-A or remain absent for a longer period is yet to be seen.
