What are Ultra Beasts?
Ultra Beasts are a group of rare, powerful Pokémon that come from Ultra Space, a set of dimensions separate from the normal Pokémon world. They were introduced in the Generation 7 games Pokémon Sun and Moon in 2016, and they cross into the main world through openings called Ultra Wormholes.
What sets them apart is how alien they look and behave compared with ordinary Pokémon. Each Ultra Beast is tracked with an official code name, such as UB-01 Symbiont for Nihilego, alongside its regular species name. As of August 2026 there are 11.
Are Ultra Beasts Legendary?
Ultra Beast is its own designation, separate from Legendary. In the game data none of the 11 Ultra Beasts carry the Legendary label, so they are best understood as their own category of rare extradimensional Pokémon. They share some traits with Legendaries, like high rarity and unusual power, but the two groups are labeled differently. See the official Legendaries on the Legendary Pokémon page.
