Unown (アンノーン, Annōn, Unknown) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise. Its name is a corruption of the word Unknown.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

The Unown make their only appearance in Melee and appear out of Poké Balls. Unown's attack is Hidden Power, which functions similarly to Beedrill's attack in Super Smash Bros., which was {{bulbapedia|Take Down (move)|Take Down]], but it is currently not known what move the swarm of Unown uses. When Unown is summoned, a random letter of Unown flies off the screen. This particular Unown will hit opponents with moderate knockback; the slash attack is more profound and can even KO. A group of Unown will then begin flying from one side of the screen to the opposite side diagonally. Any character that makes contact with the swarm of Unowns will take damage. The character that made contact with the Unowns will also be forced to the top of the screen. The character even has a chance of getting KO'd at low percentages. Unown's attack does not harm the summoner.

As a stage element

In the stage Poké Floats, various Unown fly past at moderately high speed. They act as platforms and the players can fall through them. They travel in different directions.

As a trophy

All 26 varieties of Unown feature together as a collectible trophy, which is unlocked by amassing a combined total of over 5,000m (16,503ft) with all the characters in the Home Run Contest. It reads as follows:

These symbol pokémon resemble ancient hieroglyphics found on rocks, a resemblance that's said to be more than superficial. Quite a few different shapes of Unown have been confirmed, and it's believed that each type has unique abilities. These enigmatic Pokémon can be found in the Ruins of Alph.
