Generation ζ

Generation ζ (Japanese: 第ζ世代, Zeta Generation), also referred to as Generation Zeta, Generation Z, GZ, or even Gζ, is a fan generation of the incredibly popular Pokémon franchise created by Nintendo and produced by Game Freak, created by Zeon1. The generation differs from others in that it is not restricted to any one platform or group of platforms like other generations, and can thus be considered unrelated to the previous generations.

It introduces three new regions: Xeno, Aero, and Daimyo. They are notable for being located on the opposite side of the Pokémon world from previous regions, and thus feature new kinds of Pokémon, and different rates of Pokémon as well.

It officially debuted with the games Pokémon Aether and Nether, and Tether, and was officially continued in the remakes/sequels Raging Aether and Blazing Nether. In addition, a number of side games have been confirmed to exist in this generation.
