The Pokémon multiverse refers to a collection of alternate universes in Pokémon media.
In the core series games
Pokémon Black and White
In Pokémon Black and White, it is said that Opelucid City is different in another world, with there being an alternate version of the city that is traditionalB/modernW, referencing the fact that the city differs between the two versions of the game. The character ThymeB/BachW (on the second floor in the building east of Drayden's house) requests to be shown a Pokémon that knows Charge from the alternate world and rewards the player with a Cell Battery once they show him such a Pokémon originating from the opposite version of the game.
Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire
In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Zinnia mentions that there is another similar yet different world where the war in Kalos 3000 years ago never occurred, so the ultimate weapon was never built and Mega Evolution consequently does not exist. This world contains an alternate version of the Hoenn region. This is a reference to Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, which are earlier games set in Hoenn that lack Mega Evolution.
In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, ArchieOR\MaxieAS mentions another world in which the player would battle Team AquaOR/Team MagmaAS. This is a reference to the opposite version of the game, implying that Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire take place in alternate universes to each other.
Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon
The individual titles take place in different universes from one another.
In Pokémon Sun and Moon's climax, the player, Lillie, Lusamine, and Guzma all travel to another world known as Ultra Space. The specific location is named Ultra Deep Sea in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon's climax Lusamine and Guzma head into another world to stop Necrozma instead. After their failure, Necrozma heads to Ultra Megalopolis, with the player following.
In Sun and Moon, Anabel is mentioned to have fallen onto Poni Island from another universe through an Ultra Wormhole, and was found by Looker and Nanu ten years before the events of the games. She remembers that she came from Hoenn and was a powerful Trainer who protected a tower, referencing her role in Pokémon Emerald.
In Episode RR in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Giovanni comes to Alola from an alternate universe in which Team Rocket was successful in achieving its goals. He then forms Team Rainbow Rocket by summoning other villainous team leaders from alternate worlds where they each also succeeded in their goals: Maxie, Archie, Cyrus, Lysandre, and Ghetsis. All of these leaders use the Legendary Pokémon they have successfully captured from their original titles. Colress uses his technology to send them back to their original worlds after they are each defeated by the player. Episode RR ends with Giovanni wondering what other worlds he could attack next before vanishing on his own.
After the player becomes the Champion, a rift appears at the Altar of the SunneSUS/Altar of the MooneMUM, which can be opened into an Ultra Wormhole and traveled through if the player has a SolgaleoSUS or Dusk Mane NecrozmaUS in their party at night or a LunalaMUM or Dawn Wings NecrozmaUM in their party during the day. The Ultra Wormhole leads to an alternate universe, known as the reverse world. It is near-identical to the main setting, but the time of day is inverted, with Poni's altar (with an Ultra Wormhole there allowing the player to return to the original world at any time), and the Lake of the MooneSUS/Lake of the SunneMUM both being replaced by their opposite version's counterpart. By going into the reverse world and bringing a SolgaleoSUS or LunalaMUM to the lake on Ula'ula Island, the legendary's counterpart will briefly appear before the player's and the two of them will create a Cosmog that the player can obtain.
In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, through the Ultra Warp Ride, it is possible to travel to other worlds by traveling through Ultra Space, including an alternate universe's version of Alola known as the Ultra Ruin, which has been destroyed by Guzzlord.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, if the player goes to the Crystal Pool with Briar's Book, Terapagos creates a cloud of mist from which Professor SadaS/Professor TuroV appears, time traveling from the past. The professor notes their displacement across space and time and speculates that the encounter might be occurring in a different timeline to their own (though this seems to be contradicted by the fact that the encounter is mentioned in the professor's journals in the Area Zero Underdepths). They also mention that they are working on a time machine to catch Pokémon from other timelines and transport them to the present day in their own timeline. After trading their copy of the Scarlet BookS/Violet BookV for Briar's Book, the professor vanishes in the mist, returning from whence they came.
In the spin-off games
Pokémon Masters EX
Giovanni is the same one that appeared in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, as he is the leader of Team Rainbow Rocket.
Cyrus is also the same one that appeared in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, as he says that he was about to use Dialga and Palkia to remake the world when he was interrupted by Hoopa's ring.
A different version of Ghetsis from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 is playable in this game. Before arriving in Pasio, Ghetsis was about to confront the player from the original game when he was also interrupted by Hoopa's ring.
The Team Rocket trio from the alternate movie continuity is somehow trasnported to Pasio while chasing a Shiny Celebi.
During the The Classic Thunderbolt special event, Ash from the anime universe accidentally wound up on Pasio while training for the Masters Eight Tournament.
During the Twin Stars Far Apart story event, Liza and Anabel wind up in an alternate world version of Pasio through an Ultra Wormhole. This world appears to house no humans, but does contain several Ultra Beasts, which appear to have wound up there by chance. The two Trainers eventually return to their own world through another wormhole.
Different versions of Rose and Oleana from Pokémon Sword and Shield are playable in this game. These versions of Rose and Oleana are from a world where they have not yet caused the Darkest Day.
In the anime
Pokémon the Series: XY
- Main article: Mirror World
The Mirror World appears in The Cave of Mirrors!. It is similar to the regular Pokémon world, except that the humans and Pokémon found in the Mirror World have mirrored appearances and opposite personalities compared to their regular world counterparts.
The mirror versions of some characters are seen in this world:
Pokémon Journeys: The Series
In The Gates of Warp! and Showdown at the Gates of Warp!, there is another universe, which is similar to the main one.
