Just have a few questions of Unown.

Are they found regularly in the world (at least in the anime?).

Would it make sense that they could go to both their own dimension (which seemed to be in the third movie, the reverse world, and I'd definitely assume in the place where Dialga and Palkia started their fight in the 10th movie.

Though would that place in the 10th movie, be the same place as where the Unown escaped to in the 3rd movie?

Thanks :)

No in the games and anime. In the games, they're typically found in ruins that are usually difficult to get to. In their first appearance, you had the Ruins of Alph, which was accessible, but you couldn't get any unown to appear until after you solved several puzzles (some of which were a bit annoying to get to). In FrLg, you had the ruins in the Sevii Islands, and aside from actually getting there in the first place (which took a hike and a surf), you had to unlock the unown once again, if I recall correctly. In DPP, it's significantly easier because the ruins are lightly guarded (just a few hops away), although two types of unown are literally sealed within a separate chamber that needed to be excavated first.

In the anime, they're generally thought to reside in an alternate dimension.

Simply put, they're not usually found in the normal world, no.

And their own? Yes, they have that capability. They just don't often do it for some reason (probably because the anime doesn't like to focus on single pokémon for multiple episodes or movies).

According to Bulbapedia, it is.
Professional ninja. May or may not actually be back. Here for the snark and banter at most.

They sometimes appear in the "real" world in the anime, too. They did in Journey to the Unown! There are probably several places where they do appear regularly in the normal world, most likely various ruins, but not all over the wild.

So far, it seems like the only fool-proof method for running into Unown is to mess around with evil prehistoric Scrabble tiles. :P

This one is my hack.


This one is the hack I part-time map for.

I got an Illumise?
Pretty awesome.
Glad I grabbed an egg I didn't recognize.
