The '''Kalos''' region (Japanese: '''カロス{{tt|地方|ちほう}}''' ''Kalos {{tt|region|chihō}}'') is a [[region]] of the [[Pokémon world]]. It was the sixth [[core series]] region to be introduced and is the setting of {{g|X and Y}} and {{g|Legends: Z-A}}.

It is shaped like a five-pointed star, with one of its biggest cities being [[Lumiose City]] in the north-central part of the region. It features a vast network of rivers and waterways snaking through much of its landscape, cities and towns. North-east of Lumiose City lies a mountain range where more frigid temperatures exist, extending down into the plains below. Western Kalos features a vast ocean, where the shoreside city of [[Shalour City]] lies in the middle of a cove.

==Etymology and design concept==
[[File:Pokemon-to-real-world-Europe.png|thumb|left|250px|The map of Europe showing the Kalos region as northern {{wp|France}}.]]
===Etymology===
According to [[Junichi Masuda]], Kalos's name is derived from the Greek word κάλλος ''kállos'', meaning beauty.<ref name=Honedge>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pG-q-WIYTs Pokémon X and Pokémon Y: Honedge Revealed!] (YouTube)</ref>

===Design concept===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Kalos|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Kalos}}
Kalos is based on {{wp|France}};<ref name=Honedge/><ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrL3I38VO3o Pokémon X and Pokémon Y Developer Roundtable Recap] (YouTube)</ref> specifically, it most closely resembles the northern half of {{wp|Metropolitan France}}. According to Junichi Masuda, France was chosen as a basis for Kalos because the development team considered it a good fit for Pokémon X and Y's theme of "beauty".<ref>Nutt, Christian (September 19, 2013).

==History==
{{spoilers}}
===Prehistory===
Long ago in the past, the king of Kalos [[AZ]] united the Kalos [[region]] with prosperity for the first time using technology unlike any seen during that era. At some point, AZ also obtained an [[AZ#Befriended|Eternal Flower Floette]] that belonged to his late mother.

3,000 years prior to {{g|X and Y}}, a war broke out between Kalos and another region. As the war grew more violent and uglier, AZ was forced to send his own {{P|Floette}} into battle, which eventually led to her death. Determined to bring the Pokémon back to life, AZ built a machine that, using [[Infinity Energy]], ressurected his Floette. Unable to forgive those who took it from him, AZ turned the machine into the [[ultimate weapon]] and blasted the battlefield, killing many humans and Pokémon and ending the war as a result.

As a side effect of the blast, both AZ and Floette were given eternal life. Horrified for what AZ has done, the Floette left him. AZ soon left Kalos and started wandering aimlessly around the {{pkmn|world}}. Another apparent side effect of the blast was the creation of [[Mega Stone]]s from [[Evolution stone]]s being irradiated by Infinity Energy, which led to the creation of [[Mega Evolution]]. During the war, AZ's younger brother wished to claim Kalos out of his own greed, but after the incident, his brother realized the error of his ways and sought to make amends for his actions by burying the weapon where [[Geosenge Town]] was eventually built on, in an attempt to prevent it from ever being used again, and only telling his progeny know where it was.

800 years prior, {{p|Xerneas}} released{{sup/6|X}}/{{p|Yveltal}} absorbed{{sup/6|Y}} life energy throughout the Kalos region upon reaching the end of its life cycle. Afterward, it withdrew into hibernation deep within a forest{{sup/6|X}}/mountain range{{sup/6|Y}}. 300 years prior, [[Parfum Palace]] was built by a king who wished to display his power to all.

At some point, a descendant of AZ's brother[[Lysandre]] went on a {{Pkmn|journey}} around Kalos with his Pokemon reached out to help those suffering. At first, they were grateful, but eventually, they began to take his help for granted and demanded more and more, which eventually led Lysandre to loose faith in humanity and form [[Team Flare]] to use AZ's ultimate weapon to blast away all, but the members of Team Flare.

===Contemporary history===
The contemporary history of Kalos differs slightly based on the title of the game being played.
===={{g|X and Y}}====
{{ga|Calem}}/{{ga|Serena}} leaves their home in [[Vaniville Town]], meeting [[Shauna]] and Serena/Calem (not chosen as [[Player character|player]]), who invite them to join the pair for a meeting in [[Aquacorde Town]]. Calem, Serena, and Shauna receive their [[first partner Pokémon]] from [[Tierno]] and a [[Pokédex]] from [[Trevor]] on behalf of [[Professor Sycamore]]. After delivering a letter to their {{kal|Grace|Mom}} from Professor Sycamore, they head on an adventure traveling across Kalos challenging [[Gym]]s in order to earn eight [[Badge]]s to then challenge the {{kal|Pokémon League}}. Over the course of their {{pkmn|journey}}, they come into contact with [[Team Flare]], an organization whose goal is to create a "beautiful and better" world while making money. They try to do this by stealing [[Fossil]]s from [[Glittering Cave]], siphoning electricity from the [[Kalos Power Plant]], stealing the [[Poké Ball]]s from the [[Poké Ball Factory]] in [[Laverre City]], and attempting to agitate and capture an {{p|Abomasnow}}. Calem/Serena also encounters a mysterious giant called [[AZ]] on several occasions, initially on [[Kalos Route 13]]. After earning their seventh Badge from [[Olympia]], Calem/Serena is contacted by [[Lysandre]], a man introduced by Professor Sycamore, who reveals both himself as the leader of Team Flare, and his intention to use the "[[ultimate weapon]]" to eliminate all life in the world except for those in Team Flare. Calem/Serena battle Lysandre, first in [[Lysandre Labs]], and again in the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], before making their way down to the basement where they find {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}}/{{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}} and battle them, before battling against Lysandre once more. Even though Lysandre is defeated, and Calem/Serena and their friends reason with him, he still fires the ultimate weapon. The blast the weapon emits destroys it and buries Lysandre and the HQ, ultimately disbanding Team Flare. Calem/Serena then heads to the Pokémon League where they defeat the [[Elite Four]] and [[Diantha]], becoming {{pkmn|Champion}} of Kalos. Professor Sycamore then holds a grand ceremony in Kalos to celebrate Calem/Serena's victory, and all of their friends' efforts in defeating [[Team Flare]]. During the ceremony, a large mysterious man challenges Calem/Serena to a battle and is defeated, but is grateful to them, for in the battle, he finally felt free from the sorrow and rage he felt in creating the ultimate weapon. As such, the man is revealed to be the ancient king [[AZ]], and having once again become the man who loved Pokémon with all his heart, his long lost partner {{p|Floette}} returns to him, resulting in a tearful reunion.

After the ceremony, Calem/Serena is invited to [[Kiloude City]] to partake in its [[Battle Maison]], and is given a train pass for it by Professor Sycamore. After partaking in a few battles there, they are informed by Professor Sycamore that the Anistar sundial can radiate special energy, and their [[Mega Ring]] is upgraded to be able to locate Mega Stones hidden across Kalos during twilight. Calem/Serena then returns to [[Lumiose City]], where they are contacted by [[Looker]], who has a series of cases he wants them to investigate. Calem/Serena takes part in a series of trials across Lumiose and become's Looker's second-in-command. During the investigations, Calem/Serena and Looker meet an orphan girl named [[Emma]] and her {{p|Espurr}} named Mimi, who are living in the alleys of Lumiose. Eventually, Looker offers to let Emma live in the {{DL|North Boulevard|Looker Bureau}}. However, soon after, a mysterious figure vandalizes the [[Lumiose Museum]] and also lures Trainers in to steal their Pokémon. Upon investigating these cases, and through the help of [[Malva]], they learn that the crimes are being committed by [[Essentia]], who is actually Emma in a suit that enhances her power, but she is unconscious in doing this: she is actually being controlled by [[Xerosic]]. Calem/Serena and Looker track Xerosic down to a secret floor in Lysandre Labs, and manage to defeat Essentia in a series of battles. Looker captures Xerosic, and takes him away, and parts ways with Calem/Serena and Emma, and despite the latter's hesitance, Looker reassures her that their bonds will always be strong no matter how far apart they are.

====Between X and Y and Legends: Z-A====
[[AZ]] becomes the owner of [[Hotel Z]]. [[Quasartico Inc.]] is founded in [[Lumiose City]] and begins an urban redevelopment plan to turn the city into a place where [[human]]s and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} can live together in harmony. [[Emma]] inherits the head role at her detective agency from [[Looker]]. [[Mable]] becomes the director of the [[South Boulevard#Sycamore Pokémon Lab|Pokémon Research Lab]].

===={{g|Legends: Z-A}}====
{{ga|Paxton}}/{{ga|Harmony}} visits [[Lumiose City]] and befriends [[Urbain]]/[[Taunie]], [[Lida]], and [[Naveen]].

==Geography==
[[File:Gloire City Castle.png|thumb|250px|left|One of the region's many castles in {{aniseries|XY}}]]
[[File:Kalos Pokédex map.png|thumb|250px|right|Map of the Kalos region, with its three primary divisions highlighted]]
The geography of Kalos varies greatly within the region. The region is naturally bordered by a vast ocean to the west and northwest, and the eastern and southern borders are formed by mountain ranges. These borders give the region its signature star-like shape, as a large peninsula reaches out to the sea in the northwest, creating one point, and elsewhere the coastline, mountain ranges and rivers create the remaining four points. Kalos is made up of three distinct divisions, all with their own unique characteristics in both geography and Pokémon: Central Kalos, Coastal Kalos, and Mountain Kalos. The bustling [[Lumiose City]] is located near the point where all three divisions meet.

Central Kalos is located in the centric and southern parts of the region. The area is dominated by large forested plains with multiple rivers crossing it, with very few changes in elevation. Several towns are surrounded by walls of some sort, and there are also many old castles and {{wp|château}}s. Many important human settlements and landmarks are located here, such as [[Vaniville Town]], [[Santalune City]], a portion of Lumiose City, and the [[Parfum Palace]].

Coastal Kalos is located by the vast sea in the western parts of Kalos. The mainly explored area is a strip between mountains and the sea. This area is dominated by rocky shores in the southwest and lush beaches and forests in the northwest. Most human settlements are located by the sea. The peninsula in the northwest is known for its {{wp|menhir}} stones. There are many important locations, such as the [[Reflection Cave]], [[Geosenge Town]], and [[Shalour City]] with its [[Tower of Mastery]].

Mountain Kalos is located in the eastern reaches of the region. The area is largely mountainous and the temperatures tend to be cooler than in the other parts, with some routes and settlements having snow covering them. To the north there is a marshy area that is said to be haunted. However, the settlements are plentiful, and there are some important landmarks, such as the [[Kalos Power Plant]] that is built on a harsh wasteland, the [[Poké Ball Factory]] in [[Laverre City]], and the {{kal|Pokémon League}}.

[[Kiloude City]] is located outside the three divisions, and is only reachable by train from Lumiose City. The city is relatively isolated from the other parts of the region, being completely surrounded by mountains.
{{-}}

===Demographics===
The Kalos region has a total population of 1288 including all the towns, cities, routes, and areas. Upon its introduction in [[Generation VI]], it was the largest region by population. Currently it is second largest region by population 

===Notable locations===
Kalos has sixteen cities and towns, and a Pokémon League.

Like in Unova, the routes of Kalos start counting again from 1, likely to represent its geographical isolation from the previously introduced regions. There are 22 routes in total.

In {{aniseries|PTS}}, like Unova, Kalos was far enough away from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh to require traveling via airplane (as evidenced by how {{Ash}} and [[Alexa]] arrived in the region, as well as how Ash and Serena left the region for Kanto and Hoenn, respectively).

==Trivia==
* The English and Japanese names of cities and towns in Kalos are derived from various ingredients used in fragrances. Likewise, the names in the European versions are derived from various terminologies related to art.
* Kalos is the only [[region]] in which:
** All Gym Leaders and Elite Four members use teams consisting entirely of Pokémon of the type they use.
** All Routes have alternate names.
** There is more than one status-healing local specialty food item: the [[Lumiose Galette]] and the [[Shalour Sable]], although the latter cannot be obtained in {{g|X and Y}} without trading.
* The Kalos region has the largest regional [[Pokédex]] of all regions.
* Kalos has the largest population of any region, with 1,288 inhabitants living in its cities, towns, and other areas.
* The {{wp|Demonym|adjectival form}} of Kalos is "Kalosian", as seen in [[Kiloude City]]'s map description.
* The Kalos region is shaped like a pentagon, a design also reflected in the Kalos Pokédex. This may be a nod to how France is often referred to as "L'Hexagone" due to its roughly hexagonal shape.

The '''Kalos''' region (Japanese: '''カロス{{tt|地方|ちほう}}''' ''Kalos {{tt|region|chihō}}'') is a [[region]] of the [[Pokémon world]]. It was the sixth [[core series]] region to be introduced and is the setting of {{g|X and Y}} and {{g|Legends: Z-A}}.

It is shaped like a five-pointed star, with one of its biggest cities being [[Lumiose City]] in the north-central part of the region. It features a vast network of rivers and waterways snaking through much of its landscape, cities and towns. North-east of Lumiose City lies a mountain range where more frigid temperatures exist, extending down into the plains below. Western Kalos features a vast ocean, where the shoreside city of [[Shalour City]] lies in the middle of a cove.

==Etymology and design concept==
[[File:Pokemon-to-real-world-Europe.png|thumb|left|250px|The map of Europe showing the Kalos region as northern {{wp|France}}.]]
===Etymology===
According to [[Junichi Masuda]], Kalos's name is derived from the Greek word κάλλος ''kállos'', meaning beauty.<ref name=Honedge>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pG-q-WIYTs Pokémon X and Pokémon Y: Honedge Revealed!] (YouTube)</ref>

===Design concept===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Kalos|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Kalos}}
Kalos is based on {{wp|France}};<ref name=Honedge/><ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrL3I38VO3o Pokémon X and Pokémon Y Developer Roundtable Recap] (YouTube)</ref> specifically, it most closely resembles the northern half of {{wp|Metropolitan France}}. According to Junichi Masuda, France was chosen as a basis for Kalos because the development team considered it a good fit for Pokémon X and Y's theme of "beauty".<ref>Nutt, Christian (September 19, 2013).

==History==
{{spoilers}}
===Prehistory===
Long ago in the past, the king of Kalos [[AZ]] united the Kalos [[region]] with prosperity for the first time using technology unlike any seen during that era. At some point, AZ also obtained an [[AZ#Befriended|Eternal Flower Floette]] that belonged to his late mother.

3,000 years prior to {{g|X and Y}}, a war broke out between Kalos and another region. As the war grew more violent and uglier, AZ was forced to send his own {{P|Floette}} into battle, which eventually led to her death. Determined to bring the Pokémon back to life, AZ built a machine that, using [[Infinity Energy]], ressurected his Floette. Unable to forgive those who took it from him, AZ turned the machine into the [[ultimate weapon]] and blasted the battlefield, killing many humans and Pokémon and ending the war as a result.

As a side effect of the blast, both AZ and Floette were given eternal life. Horrified for what AZ has done, the Floette left him. AZ soon left Kalos and started wandering aimlessly around the {{pkmn|world}}. Another apparent side effect of the blast was the creation of [[Mega Stone]]s from [[Evolution stone]]s being irradiated by Infinity Energy, which led to the creation of [[Mega Evolution]]. During the war, AZ's younger brother wished to claim Kalos out of his own greed, but after the incident, his brother realized the error of his ways and sought to make amends for his actions by burying the weapon where [[Geosenge Town]] was eventually built on, in an attempt to prevent it from ever being used again, and only telling his progeny know where it was.

800 years prior, {{p|Xerneas}} released{{sup/6|X}}/{{p|Yveltal}} absorbed{{sup/6|Y}} life energy throughout the Kalos region upon reaching the end of its life cycle. Afterward, it withdrew into hibernation deep within a forest{{sup/6|X}}/mountain range{{sup/6|Y}}. 300 years prior, [[Parfum Palace]] was built by a king who wished to display his power to all.

At some point, a descendant of AZ's brother[[Lysandre]] went on a {{Pkmn|journey}} around Kalos with his Pokemon reached out to help those suffering. At first, they were grateful, but eventually, they began to take his help for granted and demanded more and more, which eventually led Lysandre to loose faith in humanity and form [[Team Flare]] to use AZ's ultimate weapon to blast away all, but the members of Team Flare.

===Contemporary history===
The contemporary history of Kalos differs slightly based on the title of the game being played.
===={{g|X and Y}}====
{{ga|Calem}}/{{ga|Serena}} leaves their home in [[Vaniville Town]], meeting [[Shauna]] and Serena/Calem (not chosen as [[Player character|player]]), who invite them to join the pair for a meeting in [[Aquacorde Town]]. Calem, Serena, and Shauna receive their [[first partner Pokémon]] from [[Tierno]] and a [[Pokédex]] from [[Trevor]] on behalf of [[Professor Sycamore]]. After delivering a letter to their {{kal|Grace|Mom}} from Professor Sycamore, they head on an adventure traveling across Kalos challenging [[Gym]]s in order to earn eight [[Badge]]s to then challenge the {{kal|Pokémon League}}. Over the course of their {{pkmn|journey}}, they come into contact with [[Team Flare]], an organization whose goal is to create a "beautiful and better" world while making money. They try to do this by stealing [[Fossil]]s from [[Glittering Cave]], siphoning electricity from the [[Kalos Power Plant]], stealing the [[Poké Ball]]s from the [[Poké Ball Factory]] in [[Laverre City]], and attempting to agitate and capture an {{p|Abomasnow}}. Calem/Serena also encounters a mysterious giant called [[AZ]] on several occasions, initially on [[Kalos Route 13]]. After earning their seventh Badge from [[Olympia]], Calem/Serena is contacted by [[Lysandre]], a man introduced by Professor Sycamore, who reveals both himself as the leader of Team Flare, and his intention to use the "[[ultimate weapon]]" to eliminate all life in the world except for those in Team Flare. Calem/Serena battle Lysandre, first in [[Lysandre Labs]], and again in the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], before making their way down to the basement where they find {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}}/{{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}} and battle them, before battling against Lysandre once more. Even though Lysandre is defeated, and Calem/Serena and their friends reason with him, he still fires the ultimate weapon. The blast the weapon emits destroys it and buries Lysandre and the HQ, ultimately disbanding Team Flare. Calem/Serena then heads to the Pokémon League where they defeat the [[Elite Four]] and [[Diantha]], becoming {{pkmn|Champion}} of Kalos. Professor Sycamore then holds a grand ceremony in Kalos to celebrate Calem/Serena's victory, and all of their friends' efforts in defeating [[Team Flare]]. During the ceremony, a large mysterious man challenges Calem/Serena to a battle and is defeated, but is grateful to them, for in the battle, he finally felt free from the sorrow and rage he felt in creating the ultimate weapon. As such, the man is revealed to be the ancient king [[AZ]], and having once again become the man who loved Pokémon with all his heart, his long lost partner {{p|Floette}} returns to him, resulting in a tearful reunion.

After the ceremony, Calem/Serena is invited to [[Kiloude City]] to partake in its [[Battle Maison]], and is given a train pass for it by Professor Sycamore. After partaking in a few battles there, they are informed by Professor Sycamore that the Anistar sundial can radiate special energy, and their [[Mega Ring]] is upgraded to be able to locate Mega Stones hidden across Kalos during twilight. Calem/Serena then returns to [[Lumiose City]], where they are contacted by [[Looker]], who has a series of cases he wants them to investigate. Calem/Serena takes part in a series of trials across Lumiose and become's Looker's second-in-command. During the investigations, Calem/Serena and Looker meet an orphan girl named [[Emma]] and her {{p|Espurr}} named Mimi, who are living in the alleys of Lumiose. Eventually, Looker offers to let Emma live in the {{DL|North Boulevard|Looker Bureau}}. However, soon after, a mysterious figure vandalizes the [[Lumiose Museum]] and also lures Trainers in to steal their Pokémon. Upon investigating these cases, and through the help of [[Malva]], they learn that the crimes are being committed by [[Essentia]], who is actually Emma in a suit that enhances her power, but she is unconscious in doing this: she is actually being controlled by [[Xerosic]]. Calem/Serena and Looker track Xerosic down to a secret floor in Lysandre Labs, and manage to defeat Essentia in a series of battles. Looker captures Xerosic, and takes him away, and parts ways with Calem/Serena and Emma, and despite the latter's hesitance, Looker reassures her that their bonds will always be strong no matter how far apart they are.

====Between X and Y and Legends: Z-A====
[[AZ]] becomes the owner of [[Hotel Z]]. [[Quasartico Inc.]] is founded in [[Lumiose City]] and begins an urban redevelopment plan to turn the city into a place where [[human]]s and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} can live together in harmony. [[Emma]] inherits the head role at her detective agency from [[Looker]]. [[Mable]] becomes the director of the [[South Boulevard#Sycamore Pokémon Lab|Pokémon Research Lab]].

==Geography==
[[File:Gloire City Castle.png|thumb|250px|left|One of the region's many castles in {{aniseries|XY}}]]
[[File:Kalos Pokédex map.png|thumb|250px|right|Map of the Kalos region, with its three primary divisions highlighted]]
The geography of Kalos varies greatly within the region. The region is naturally bordered by a vast ocean to the west and northwest, and the eastern and southern borders are formed by mountain ranges. These borders give the region its signature star-like shape, as a large peninsula reaches out to the sea in the northwest, creating one point, and elsewhere the coastline, mountain ranges and rivers create the remaining four points. Kalos is made up of three distinct divisions, all with their own unique characteristics in both geography and Pokémon: Central Kalos, Coastal Kalos, and Mountain Kalos. The bustling [[Lumiose City]] is located near the point where all three divisions meet.

Central Kalos is located in the centric and southern parts of the region. The area is dominated by large forested plains with multiple rivers crossing it, with very few changes in elevation. Several towns are surrounded by walls of some sort, and there are also many old castles and {{wp|château}}s. Many important human settlements and landmarks are located here, such as [[Vaniville Town]], [[Santalune City]], a portion of Lumiose City, and the [[Parfum Palace]].

Coastal Kalos is located by the vast sea in the western parts of Kalos. The mainly explored area is a strip between mountains and the sea. This area is dominated by rocky shores in the southwest and lush beaches and forests in the northwest. Most human settlements are located by the sea. The peninsula in the northwest is known for its {{wp|menhir}} stones. There are many important locations, such as the [[Reflection Cave]], [[Geosenge Town]], and [[Shalour City]] with its [[Tower of Mastery]].

Mountain Kalos is located in the eastern reaches of the region. The area is largely mountainous and the temperatures tend to be cooler than in the other parts, with some routes and settlements having snow covering them. To the north there is a marshy area that is said to be haunted. However, the settlements are plentiful, and there are some important landmarks, such as the [[Kalos Power Plant]] that is built on a harsh wasteland, the [[Poké Ball Factory]] in [[Laverre City]], and the {{kal|Pokémon League}}.

[[Kiloude City]] is located outside the three divisions, and is only reachable by train from Lumiose City. The city is relatively isolated from the other parts of the region, being completely surrounded by mountains.
{{-}}

===Demographics===
The Kalos region has a total population of 1288 including all the towns, cities, routes, and areas. Upon its introduction in [[Generation VI]], it was the largest region by population. Currently it is second largest region by population 

===Notable locations===
Kalos has sixteen cities and towns, and a Pokémon League.

Like in Unova, the routes of Kalos start counting again from 1, likely to represent its geographical isolation from the previously introduced regions. There are 22 routes in total.

In {{aniseries|PTS}}, like Unova, Kalos was far enough away from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh to require traveling via airplane (as evidenced by how {{Ash}} and [[Alexa]] arrived in the region, as well as how Ash and Serena left the region for Kanto and Hoenn, respectively).

==Trivia==
* The English and Japanese names of cities and towns in Kalos are derived from various ingredients used in fragrances. Likewise, the names in the European versions are derived from various terminologies related to art.
* Kalos is the only [[region]] in which:
** All Gym Leaders and Elite Four members use teams consisting entirely of Pokémon of the type they use.
** All Routes have alternate names.
** There is more than one status-healing local specialty food item: the [[Lumiose Galette]] and the [[Shalour Sable]], although the latter cannot be obtained in {{g|X and Y}} without trading.
* The Kalos region has the largest regional [[Pokédex]] of all regions.
* Kalos has the largest population of any region, with 1,288 inhabitants living in its cities, towns, and other areas.
* The {{wp|Demonym|adjectival form}} of Kalos is "Kalosian", as seen in [[Kiloude City]]'s map description.
* The Kalos region is shaped like a pentagon, a design also reflected in the Kalos Pokédex. This may be a nod to how France is often referred to as "L'Hexagone" due to its roughly hexagonal shape.
