A version mascot is a Pokémon that appears on the boxart of one of the Pokémon games in the main series.

Usually, the first two version mascots in a generation will have more of a relation to each other than the third, however, recently, all three have had a significant relationship shared among them.

Not pictured below, Venusaur is also a version mascot, and would be the third relation to Generation I's Charizard and Blastoise. However, this was only in Japan prior to the release of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, which never got a third version itself.
