List of generation VII Pokémon facts for kids
This article only covers the basics of Pokémon species. For detailed in-universe information, please refer to dedicated wikis on the subject.
The seventh generation (Generation VII) of the Pokémon franchise features 88 fictional species of creatures introduced to the core video game series in the 2016 Nintendo 3DS games Pokémon Sun and Moon and the 2017 3DS games Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, with two further species introduced in a 2018 update to the spin-off mobile game Pokémon Go alongside the 2018 core series Nintendo Switch games Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, culminating to a total of 88. Some Pokémon species in this generation were introduced in animated adaptations of the franchise before Sun and Moon.
Since Pokémon X and Y, all Pokémon have been designed by a team of roughly 20 artists, led by Ken Sugimori and Hironobu Yoshida. Sun and Moon take place in the tropical Alola region, composed entirely of islands. Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! are set in the Kanto region, the same setting as generation I. Pokémon Go is an augmented reality mobile game which uses the GPS and camera functions on the player's smartphone to display wild Pokémon in the player's surrounding environment.
The following list details the 88 Pokémon of Generation VII in order of their National Pokédex number. Pokémon number 722 Rowlet to number 802 Marshadow were introduced in Sun and Moon in 2016 and number 803 Poipole to number 807 Zeraora were released in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon in 2017. Two mythical Pokémon, Meltan and Melmetal, debuted in Pokémon Go in 2018; Meltan appears in the wild in Pokémon Go when a Pokémon is transferred to Let's Go, Pikachu! or Let's Go, Eevee!, while Melmetal is only obtainable by evolving Meltan in Pokémon Go when the player collects candies. In addition to the new species of Pokémon, two new formes of Zygarde appeared in Sun and Moon—having previously appeared in the Pokémon anime: the dog-like "Zygarde 10% Forme" and mech-like "Zygarde Complete (100%) Forme". Alternate forms that result in type changes and regional forms are included for convenience.

| Rowlet | Mokurō (モクロー) | 722 | Grass | Flying | Dartrix (#723) | Rowlet are owl-like Pokémon that can twist their heads 180° and are capable of attacking silently. Adorned with a leafy bow tie, Rowlet has been well received by fans and critics. Several gaming media outlets consider it to be the most popular of the three Alola Region starters. In a poll held by The Pokémon Company International's official Twitter account in which 52,630 people voted, Rowlet received 41% of the vote. |
| Dartrix | Fukusurō (フクスロー) | 723 | Grass | Flying | Decidueye (#724) | |
| Decidueye | Junaipā (ジュナイパー) | 724 | Grass | Ghost | Does not evolve | Decidueye also appears as a playable fighter in Pokkén Tournament DX. It is based on a Stilt-owl. |

| Torracat | Nyahīto (ニャヒート) | 726 | Fire | Incineroar (#727) | ||
| Incineroar | Gaogaen (ガオガエン) | 727 | Fire | Dark | Does not evolve | Incineroar's design is based on heel fighters and wrestlers. Their waists have flames in the shape of a championship belt. They have a cold persona, but are said to love praise from young Pokémon and children. The design of Incineroar also drew some inspiration from the Hawaiian wildlife. The Shiny Pokémon version of Incineroar changes his color scheme to orange fur with white stripes. Incineroar debuted in Pokémon Sun and Moon for the Nintendo 3DS. It also appears in Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. series, appearing as the last newcomer for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Masahiro Sakurai, the game's director, said he chose Incineroar because he wanted a wrestling character for the game. In the Japanese version of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Incineroar is voiced by Unshō Ishizuka, who also voiced Professor Oak in the Pokémon anime. It marked one of his final voice acting appearances before his 2018 death a few months before the release of the game. Tyler Bunch provides the character voice in the English version. In the Pokémon anime, Incineroar debuted in the 2017 film Pokémon the Movie: I Choose You!, under the ownership of Cross. Incineroar initially received criticism from fans before it was officially revealed as it was assumed to be a dual Fire/Fighting-type Pokémon, a strongly disliked trend among Fire-type starters. Dustin Kemp of The Inquisitr called Incineroar's eventual reveal a "brilliant trolling maneuver by GameFreak". Incineroar has received mixed reviews from critics and fans. Matthew Guida of The Gamer has complimented Incineroar, calling it a "fearsome Pokémon" and particularly praised its Shiny Pokémon form, which he said "adds a majestic and regal appearance to its regular design". Allegra Frank of Polygon critiqued Incineroar's design of a "gigantic fighting feline monster", compared to its pre-evolution Litten, to be "upsetting" and leaving fans "extremely disheartened", but nonetheless praised its Fire/Dark typing as "some good to be found in Incineroar’s official reveal". Oliver Cragg of International Business Times was critical of Incineroar in Pokémon Sun and Moon because "its stats are spread so broadly that it fails to excel at anything", and that its attacks are "a tad underpowered". Jordan Minor of Geek.com praised the addition of Incineroar to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate because its professional wrestling-inspired grapple moves are so different than those of other playable characters. He wrote: "We're excited to try out up close and personal grabs and lariats or even bouncing foes against the ropes." |
| Popplio | Ashimari (アシマリ) | 728 | Water | Brionne (#729) | Popplio are sea lion Pokémon that can do tricks and form water bubbles from their "clown-like nose". In contrast to the positive reactions to Rowlet and Litten, Popplio initially received negative reactions across social media platforms, however these reactions have generally become more neutral over time, leading many to see Popplio as a polarizing addition. In a Twitter poll held by The Pokémon Company International, Popplio was the least popular of the three starters, receiving only 21 percent of the vote. | |
