”It’s my guess thatyou’ve come to ask about the Legendary Pokémon of Kalos region, Yveltal. Well,allow me to tell you what I know.
It happened around800 years ago.The Pokémon knownas Yveltal spread its ominous wings, engulfing the lands of Kalos in darkness.At the moment, people and Pokémon throughout the land began to fall one by one.Yveltal let out a piercing cry and took to the sky, vanishing to an unknownlocation.
Stories say thatwhen it nears the end of its thousand-year life span, Yveltal absorbs the lifeforce of the living things around it in order to charge its own energy. Anothertale talks of the appearance of just such a terrifying Pokémon.
Back 3,000 years ago,the Kalos region was engulfed in a terrible war. According to the stories, a Pokémonappeared and stole the life force of countless living beings. Some peoplesuspect the Pokémon that appeared was Yveltal, but there’s no way to know.Maybethey’re just using a Legendary Pokémon as a metaphor for war and pestilence.
In the tales, afterYveltal finished storing the energy it had absorbed, it transformed into a kindof cocoon, remaining in hiding deep in the mountains. According to old tales,as I say. Tales and stories.”
