Pokémon X & Y Has Some Surprisingly Dark Lore

With 2025's Pokémon Legends: Z-A giving players a new look at Kalos, it's a great opportunity to take a deeper look into AZ and the Pokémon War.

Pokémon X & Y Has Some Surprisingly Dark Lore

10 years later, it's safe to say that Pokémon X and Pokémon Y have officially entered the "kids who had them as their first Pokémon games are old enough to call them their favorites on social media" stage of the Poké-nostalgia cycle. Game Freak seems to have realized this, as the Pokémon Presents stream for Pokémon Day on February 27, 2024 revealed that the next Pokémon Legends entry, Pokémon Legends: Z-A, will take place in Kalos. Since X and Y never got an updated version or DLC like the rest of the mainline games, one of the most common complaints about Kalos is how unfinished it feels, especially in its storytelling.
