A fake Pokémon is any non-official Pokémon. There are several ways in which one can be created and enter mainstream knowledge.

Assumptions of real Pokémon

Sometimes before the release of a new generation of Pokémon games, a silhouette of a new Pokémon will be released in Pokémon Wonderland, with the picture shown the following month. In that timeframe, sometimes fans will guess what the Pokémon will look like and draw up their assumptions. Others interpret these assumptions as the actual Pokémon.

In other instances, a false name or evolution of a Pokémon may be invented by a fan before any official release. Other fans, again, interpret these assumptions as fact.

Some assumed Pokémon include:

April Fools Pokémon

Often for April Fools pranks, Pokémon websites will create fake Pokémon and attempt to pass them off as recently revealed new Pokémon. These often include some of the commonly assumed fake Pokémon.

Fan Pokémon

It is not unusual for fans to create their own fake Pokémon for pure amusement, often creating new elemental types and moves as well. These are usually openly displayed and known about as being fake, though sometimes one may be assumed to be a real Pokémon by another fan.

Several fansites have arose with a focus on fan-made Pokémon.
