'''The Official Pokémon Handbook''' by [[Maria S.

===The Top Ten Ways To Care For Your Pokémon===
10. ''Take it to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]] regularly for a free checkup and a complete healing. Every major city has one. Always make sure your Pokémon is well rested and in good health before a major battle.''
9. ''[[Trade]] it with a friend. The more new life experiences your Pokémon has the stronger and smarter it will become. Then you can trade back for it.''
8. ''Keep a well-stocked first-aid kit. Battles, even for play, cause cuts, scrapes, and bruises. Every town has a [[Poké Mart]] where you can buy these supplies, but the [[Celadon City Department Store]] is the best stocked. A good first-aid kit includes:''
* ''{{DL|Status ailment healing item|Awakening|Awakening Potion}} — wakes up a Pokémon that has been put to sleep''
* ''{{DL|Status ailment healing item|Antidote}} — cures {{status|poison|poisonous stings}}''
* ''{{DL|Status ailment healing item|Paralyze Heal}} — loosens up a Pokémon that {{status|Paralysis|can't move}}''
* ''{{DL|Status ailment healing item|Burn Heal}} — soothes painful {{status|burn}}s left by {{t|Fire}} elements''
* ''[[Potion]]s — heal wounds in general''
* ''{{DL|Revive|Revive}} — wakes up Pokémon that have [[Fainting|fainted]]''
* ''{{DL|Status ailment healing item|Ice Heal}} — defrosts {{status|frozen}} Pokémon''
7. ''Start off slowly. Don't try to fight another [[Pokémon Trainer|trainer]] too soon. Build up your Pokémon's [[experience]] through small competitions with [[wild Pokémon]]. When you are ready to take on another Trainer, make sure your Pokémon and the trainer's Pokémon have a similar amount of experience.''
6. ''Practice. Let a new or less experienced Pokémon start off a big battle. Then replace it with a stronger Pokémon before it gets hurt. Quick, safe battles are a good way to build up a Pokémon's experience.''
5. ''Stay smart. Make sure you know everything you can about your Pokémon before you decide how to raise it. Each Pokémon is special and has different needs.''
4. ''Take your Pokémon to the museum. There's [[Pewter Museum of Science|a great museum of science]] in [[Pewter City]] with an exhibit of extinct Pokémon bones. A definite must-see!''
3. ''Teamwork. The six Pokémon you carry with you should have a variety of [[move|techniques]] and [[Type|elements]]. Also, don't concentrate on raising up one Pokémon's experience and not the others'. Keep all of your Pokémon equally strong. The secret to success is teamwork.''
2. ''Don't forget your [[vitamin]]s! Pokémon need to take their vitamins and minerals to keep them healthy and strong. These are some of the items that you can buy for your Pokémon:''
*''{{DL|Vitamin|Calcium}} — to increase {{stat|special}} powers''
*''{{DL|Vitamin|Carbos}} — to increase {{stat|speed}}''
*''{{DL|Vitamin|Iron}} — to increase {{stat|defense}} strength''
*''{{DL|Vitamin|Protein}} — to increase {{stat|attack}} strength''
*''{{DL|Vitamin|Rare Candy}} — OK, so it's not a vitamin. But a treat once in a while keeps your Pokémon happy and boosts their energy up one level.''
1. ''LOVE THEM! Pokémon aren't just fighters. They want to be your friends. If you treat them well, they will be loyal companions.''

The Official Pokémon Handbook by Maria S.

Entries

The entries for the Pokémon are structured in an easy-to-read page setup. Each Pokémon has either an entire page to itself or shares a page with another member of its evolutionary family.

Each entry is topped with a large box containing the Pokémon's name and National Pokédex number. The color of the box reflects the featured Pokémon's type.

Stock artwork of each Pokémon is the main focus of its entry page. Underneath the picture is a short description about the Pokémon that is similar to a Pokédex entry. Occasionally, a page will also contain a "Pokédex Pick," which is additional information about the Pokémon, often an anecdote about the Pokémon's appearance in the anime.

The sidebar of each entry contains the following stats:

  • Pronunciation
  • Element
  • Type
  • Height (in inches)
  • Weight (in pounds)
  • Techniques (moves the Pokémon will already know)
  • Other Techniques (moves the Pokémon will learn as it levels up)
  • Good Against (lists what type advantages it has over other Pokémon)
  • Bad Against (type disadvantages against other Pokémon)
  • Evolution (Normal, Stone, Trade, or None)
  • Evolves at Level: __

Levels are not given for when Pokémon will learn techniques, although they are listed in the order in which they are learned. Moves that can be learned from TMs are not listed.

At the very bottom of the entry there are evolution chains to show the Pokémon's evolutionary family. Pokémon that do not evolve or have not yet been revealed to evolve do not show an evolution chain.

Other content

The book has an introductory chapter titled "A Word From Professor Oak". The chapter describes the premise of the handbook and the Pokémon world in general (this information is largely influenced by anime canon). It also contains a preface called The Pokémon Journey, an illustrated map of the Kanto region, and another preface, Battle Basics, as well as a How to use this book diagram.

At the end of the book, there is a list of Top 10 Ways to Care for your Pokémon, Secrets of the Gym Leaders, Meet the Elite Four, some FAQs, information about Togepi, a sneak peek of Generation II Pokémon, and a checklist for catching all the Generation I Pokémon and Togepi. The Deluxe Collector's Edition also has information on characters from the anime.
