Generation 6: The Kalos Region
Generation 6 marked a monumental shift for the franchise: the leap from traditional 2D pixel art to fully rendered 3D models. It brought Pokemon to the Nintendo 3DS, adding incredible visual depth, a fairy-tale aesthetic, and a massive power-scaling mechanic.
Filtering for Gen 6 gives you access to a sleek, modern roster of Pokemon designed to take advantage of 3D graphics.

Key Highlights & Special Features:
