The sixth-generation (Generation VI) of the Pokémon franchise features the addition of 72 fictional species of creatures in Pokémon X and Y to the series. Also known as 'the worst generation', the addtion of several new, unoriginal Pokemon (namely Klefki and required Pikachu clone Dedenne) and many more ugly Pokemon (Yveltal, I'm looking at you-and what is up with those Stage 3 starters?) makes this generation very unpopular-although not all the Pokemon are Trubbish. Get it? Also included are additions from Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. This generation featured the series' largest graphical overhaul: a shift from two-dimensional sprites to three-dimensional polygons. A new type (Fairy) was introduced for the first time since Gold and Silver in 1999, bringing the total to 18. Greater emphasis was placed on making Pokémon species more unique and in-tune with the culture and fauna of Europe, namely France.

All Pokémon were created by a team of roughly 20 artists, led by Ken Sugimori and Hironobu Yoshida. For the first time in the franchise, the generation's Legendary Pokémon—specifically Xerneas and Yveltal—were not designed by Sugimori alone; he requested the help of Atsuko Nishida to move their designs forward.[1]
The following list details the 72 Pokémon of Generation VI in order of their National Pokédex—an in-game electronic encyclopedia that provides various information on Pokémon—number. The first Pokémon, Chespin, is number 650 and the last, Volcanion, is number 721. Alternate forms that result in type changes and Mega Evolutions are included for convenience.
