Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl have a number of Unown locations with different forms, representing different letters in the alphabet. If you’re wondering where to find them, you’ve come to the right place. 

The Sinnoh Region is not an unfamiliar area to longstanding fans, but for new players, there are various locations whereby some of the rarest Pokemon spawn. The Unown very much falls into that category.
