<div style="clear: right; float:right">__TOC__</div>
The '''Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン{{tt|図鑑|ずかん}}''' ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia'') is a digital encyclopedia created by [[Professor Oak]] as an invaluable tool to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s in the [[Pokémon world]]. It gives information about all {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the world that are contained in its database, although it differs in how it acquires and presents information over the different media. However, they are also only given to a few Trainers at a time, generally to the ones that are felt to have exceptional potential and skill. [[Regional Pokédex]]es give information about Pokémon native to its particular [[region]], while the [[National Pokédex]] records information about all known Pokémon.

Pokédex entries typically describe a Pokémon in only two or three sentences. They may give background information on the habitat or activities of a Pokémon in the wild or other information on the Pokémon's history or anatomy. Pokédex entries also include height, weight, cry, footprint (prior to [[Generation VI]]), location, other forms, and a picture of the Pokémon.

Sometimes the Pokédex might contain inaccurate or mythical information. For example, some of {{p|Tentacruel}}'s entries describes it as having 80 tentacles when only 14 are visible.

==In the core series==

===Functions===
The Pokédex is a handheld electronic encyclopedia device; one which is capable of recording and retaining information of the various Pokémon of the world. In order to accomplish Professor Oak's goal of a complete Pokémon database, the Pokédex is designed to find and record data on each Pokémon the Trainer meets. Pokémon are added to the Pokédex simply by encountering them in battle or, sometimes, by seeing a picture of the Pokémon. However, detailed entries are not recorded until the player catches the Pokémon, receives it as a prize/gift or acquires it in a trade.

====Entries====
The main feature of any Pokédex are the entries on each individual Pokémon, which provide details that would otherwise be unexplored in the games. Complete entries can only be seen for captured Pokémon, while uncaptured Pokémon only have limited information.

=====Generation I=====
In [[Generation I]]'s Pokédex (model HANDY505), the entries are simple and each individual section can be accessed directly from the listing. The first, and main option—"Data"—includes an image of the Pokémon, its number, name, {{pkmn|category}}, height, weight, and a short blurb. The second option—"[[Cry]]"—does not open a new screen; selecting it simply plays the Pokémon's cry. The last option—"Area"—displays the [[map]], along with flashing indicators at each location where the selected Pokémon can be found; in cases where the Pokémon is not available in the {{pkmn2|wild}}, is only available {{pkmn2|Legendary|once}}, or can only be found by [[fishing]] or in the [[Cerulean Cave|Unknown Dungeon]], the message "Area Unknown" will be displayed over the center of the map instead. {{game|Yellow}} allows players to print entries using the [[Game Boy Printer]].

=====Generation II=====
[[Generation II]]'s Pokédex (model HANDY808) retains the same elements as its predecessor, while adding the Pokémon's [[footprint]] to the information and, like Yellow, allows players to print entries. Unlike Generation I, selecting a Pokémon displays the entry in a new screen from which the other sections can be selected. This became the norm for subsequent generations. International versions also have a "Page" button for long Pokédex entries (in Generation I, player simply had to press A button instead); Japanese versions did not have multi-page Pokédex entries.

In these games, entries that would normally display "Area Unknown" on the map simply display an unmarked map.

=====Generation III=====
[[Generation III]]'s Pokédex did not add anything to the main entry; however, Cry was given its own page, which displays the sound wave as it played. In addition, the Area section was changed to highlight locations instead of just marking them and can now display the locations of Pokémon obtainable by [[fishing]]. A Size section was added, which displays silhouettes of the Pokémon and the [[player character]] side by side. In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} only, there is a Page button to switch between pages of multi-page Pokédex entries.

{{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}'s Pokédex (model HANDY909) displays entries in a much different format from Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. It was the first Pokédex to actually display a Pokémon's type in its entry, as well as its menu sprite. However, the Cry visuals were removed. Entries for Kanto Pokémon were taken from Red/Green for FireRed and Red/Blue for LeafGreen. Johto Pokémon entries were taken from Silver for FireRed and Gold for LeafGreen. Additionally, in the international versions, it is the first Pokédex to show long Pokédex entries in full, instead of splitting them into two pages. This was carried over to later games, including Emerald.

=====Generation IV=====
[[Generation IV]]'s Pokédex (model HANDY910) added numerous features, but of FireRed and LeafGreen's changes, it kept only type. Area now changes its highlight color depending on whether a Pokémon is found normally or exclusively using [[Honey]], and the player can view the differences between morning, day and night, with the default being the current [[time]]. Cry's display returned, with a bar display in addition to the wave display, and the ability to modify the cry via Chorus/Pan, Reverb/Filter and Loop. Weight was added to the Size section, which puts the Pokémon and the player character on either side of a balance scale. A new Forms section allows players to see gender and form differences within species, but only for forms they have already seen. Males and females of all Pokémon with differing gender are shown separately under in the Forms section even if there is no [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|visible gender difference]]. For a small list of Pokémon, if the player obtains a Pokémon from another country, they can [[Foreign Pokédex entries|change the language]] of that Pokémon's entry after meeting Meister. In Platinum, this function was expanded to all Pokémon, although it still requires Meister to update the Pokédex.

{{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} changed the formatting again, now displaying the list on the lower screen and the actual entry on the top screen. Cry's page was again removed. By selecting "view details", players can view Area, Size and Forms. Area no longer defaults to the current time or differentiated for Honey due to it no longer being a mechanic, Size now utilized both screens to display both Height and Weight at the same time, and Forms added a Compare option to see different forms side by side instead of having to scroll between them. Entries for Johto and Kanto Pokémon were taken from Gold for HeartGold and Silver for SoulSilver. Players can collect foreign Pokédex entries without the need to update their Pokédex. Also, while artwork shows a pink Pokédex for females, the in-game interface does not reflect this.

=====Generation V=====
[[File:Key Pokédex m Sprite.png|left|thumb|Male Unova Pokédex sprite when obtaining it]]
[[File:Key Pokédex f Sprite.png|thumb|Female Unova Pokédex sprite when obtaining it]]
The [[Generation V]] Pokédex is similar to the Pokédex from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. It is displayed as a list on the right side of the lower screen with the selected Pokémon's sprite occupying the left side. Most of its functions are also similar to [[Generation IV]]'s. Instead of showing the time of day that a Pokémon can be caught, as in Generation IV, the Pokédex shows the seasons in which it can be found. Areas in which the Pokémon can be found flash red, and touching an area will show the methods by which it can be caught (walking in [[tall grass]], {{m|surf}}ing, or [[fishing]]). The height and weight comparison feature has been removed, but a section showing form differences and a search feature are added by [[Cedric Juniper]] when the player visits [[Mistralton City]]. The form difference section will now show [[Shiny Pokémon]] as well as form differences. The last sprite selected will become the one displayed in the main entry. The ability to collect foreign Pokédex entries now only applies to the first 493 Pokémon, but the player can now also collect Korean Pokédex entries. The cry page has been added again as well.

In Black 2 and White 2, after defeating [[Cheren]] for the first time, [[Bianca]] will upgrade the player's Pokédex with the [[Habitat List]], showing which Pokémon the player has already seen in the selected location, either normally, by finding in the water or via fishing rod (the latter two available later). If all Pokémon available in that place that are available via one of these three ways are seen (such as {{p|Purrloin}} and {{p|Patrat}} for tall grass on {{rt|19|Unova}}), the reference to the location in such way is marked with a [[Poké Ball]]-like stamp; after catching all Pokémon that are found via one of these three ways in current place, it gets marked with a colored Poké Ball-like stamp.

In all four games, extra Pokédex skins can also be downloaded through the [[Pokémon Global Link]]. There was a total of seven downloadable skins, but only a maximum of five skins have been made available for each gender of the {{player}}:

</div>

=====Generation VI=====
The [[Generation VI]] Pokédex is card-shaped and has a holographic center that is visible when the two ends are separated. It is also separated into three categories: Central Kalos, Coastal Kalos, and Mountain Kalos, and each category has a different icon in the Pokédex menu. The Coastal Pokédex is represented by a blue stripe on the left side of a pentagon, the Central Pokédex is represented by a white stripe down the middle of a pentagon, and the Mountain Pokédex is represented by a red stripe on the right side of a pentagon. The symbol for the National Pokédex is a {{i|Poké Ball}}.

If the player obtains a Pokémon that was created in Generation VI, the symbol in the Pokédex indicating it has been caught is a combination of the three Kalos Pokédex symbols: a pentagon with vertical blue, white, and red stripes. This resembles the {{wp|flag of France}}, the region on which Kalos is based. If a Pokémon is transferred from a previous generation, the symbol will instead be a Poké Ball. The latter symbol can be updated to the former symbol if the player obtains a Pokémon of that species originating from Generation VI. If all Pokémon are obtained from Generation VI games, the Pokédex will be marked with a crown on the selection screen.

In the [[National Pokédex]], there are color codes used to represent Pokémon introduced in each [[generation]]: red for [[Generation I]], yellow for {{gen|II}}, green for {{gen|III}}, blue for {{gen|IV}}, pink for {{gen|V}}, and silver for {{gen|VI}}. Like in Generation V, players may choose the default entry image for each Pokémon species, as long as they have seen that gender, coloration, or form of that species before. Like in previous games, acquiring Pokémon from foreign-language games will unlock the ability to view entries in those languages, so long as the player owns or has owned a Pokémon from that language. This time, all Pokémon entries can be obtained, allowing for both Generation V and VI entries for the first time.

[[File:Key Rotom Pokédex Sprite.png|thumb|Rotom Pokédex sprite when obtaining it]]
=====Generation VII=====
The [[Generation VII]] Pokédex consists of a device specially-designed to be inhabited by a {{p|Rotom}}, an innovation that gives the Pokédex its own personality and is intended as a new way for humans and Pokémon to communicate. In addition to a standard Pokédex function, the [[Rotom Pokédex]] includes a detailed map that can point out nearby locations of interest, and remind the player of the next objective based on recent conversations with NPCs. The Rotom Pokédex is a rare model even in the [[Alola]] region where it was created.

Like the Kalos Pokédex, the Alola Pokédex is divided into several categories, with a section for each of the four main islands of the region. Unlike the Kalos Pokédex, Pokémon in Alola can be found in more than one section of the Pokédex. In addition to the number of Pokémon seen and owned, it also displays the total percentage of Pokédex completion. Event-exclusive [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], [[regional form]]s and [[Mega Evolution]]s have separate entries from the rest of their species. Unlike previous generations, a Pokémon's gender is only shown separately under the Forms section if there is a [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|visible gender difference]]. The player can also scan QR codes to add Pokémon they haven't encountered yet to the Pokédex, allowing them to check the Pokémon's location in Alola.

=====Generation VIII=====
The [[Generation VIII]] Pokédex is an application [[Sonia]] installs in the player's [[Rotom Phone]] after meeting her for the first time. Once a day, the Pokédex application will give the player a recommended place to look for Pokémon to complete their [[Galar]] [[Regional Pokédex]].

====Search and order====
The original Pokédex had no search function.

In [[Generation II]], the ability to search for Pokémon by [[type]] was added, as well as the ability to sort by [[New Pokédex]] mode, Old Pokédex mode, [[List of Pokémon by name|A to Z]] mode and [[Unown Mode]].

In [[Generation III|Ruby and Sapphire]], the search function was expanded to allow searches by name and [[List of Pokémon by color|color]]. Players were also given the option to order Pokémon by Heaviest, Lightest, Tallest, or Smallest. Two modes were available, [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn]] and [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National]]. National mode was unlocked via a trade with [[Kanto]] or [[Orre]], or, in {{game3|Emerald|Emerald}}, entering the [[Hall of Fame]].

However, in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, the search function was dropped altogether, instead choosing to expand the sort functions by adding lists of Pokémon by type and [[List of Pokémon by habitat|habitat]]. Heaviest and Tallest orders were also removed. National Mode was unlocked by having obtained 60 Pokémon in the Pokédex, entering the Hall of Fame and completing the Sevii Island's sidequest.

[[Generation IV]] brought the Search function back, as well as Heaviest and Tallest orders. Habitat was dropped. Searches could now be conducted by [[List of Pokémon by shape|Form]], but not by Color. The two Pokédex modes were [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh]] and National. National mode was unlocked by seeing every Pokémon in the Sinnoh Dex.

{{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} added the ability to search by Height and Weight (instead of simply sorting by them), and also allowed search by Area ([[Johto]], [[Kanto]], or Unknown). National Mode was added by talking with [[Professor Oak]] in the [[S.S. Aqua]] port in [[Olivine City]] after entering the Hall of Fame.

In [[Generation V]], the Pokédex for {{4v|Black|White}} allows the player to search for Pokémon with the following criteria: Order ([[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|Number]], [[List of Pokémon by name|A to Z]], [[List of Pokémon by weight|Heavy to Light]], [[List of Pokémon by weight|Light to Heavy]], [[List of Pokémon by height|Tall to Short]], and [[List of Pokémon by height|Short to Tall]]), [[List of Pokémon by name|Name]] (All letters of the alphabet), Type, [[List of Pokémon by color|Color]], which was returned to the search after being dropped in [[Generation IV]], and [[List of Pokémon by shape|Form]]. Unlike in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the ability to search for Pokémon by area was dropped. By changing the Pokédex type, the player can search for [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number|Pokémon native to the Unova Region]] or from other regions, but in order to search for other Pokémon, the player must have first been obtained the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]] upgrade from [[Cedric Juniper]] after the defeat of [[Ghetsis]]{{sup/5|BW}}/[[Iris]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}. After obtaining the upgrade, the player can switch the Pokédex type from the National Pokédex to the [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number|Unova Pokédex]] at will by simply tapping "SELECT" in the lower portion of the touch screen or by pressing the SELECT button on the DS System. In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, it is not possible to use the Search Function in the Habitat List mode of the Pokédex.

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], the ability to search for Pokémon that are not caught was added. Furthermore, only the currently set form of a Pokémon will be considered by the Pokédex when sorting and searching. All other forms will be ignored, and the form setting will not change to make the Pokémon match the search criteria. If the form is changed in the entry and the Pokémon either no longer matches the search criteria or belongs in a different place in the list, its entry will vanish or move according to its new form. The regional Pokédex is divided into three categories, each with separate Pokémon and search functions: Central Kalos (the first one unlocked), Coastal Kalos (unlocked by [[Sina]] and [[Dexio]] upon entering {{rt|8|Kalos}}), and Mountain Kalos (unlocked by Sina and Dexio in the gate between [[Coumarine City]] and {{rt|13|Kalos}}, after beating [[Ramos]]). The National Pokédex upgrade is obtained from Dexio after entering the Hall of Fame, upon entering Lumiose Station.

[[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] kept all the search features from {{pkmn|X and Y}}, with some new additions. This time, all forms of a Pokémon registered will be taken in account when sorting and searching, even if they aren't the currently set form. There is also an option to search for Pokémon whose [[Mega Evolution]] form or {{shiny}} appearance have been registered.

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], the Pokédex is divided into 4 Island Pokédexes, which feature the Pokémon found in each island of [[Alola]] (thus sharing species). Combined, they form the Alola Pokédex, which gathers all the Pokémon present in the Island Pokédexes, plus some others, like [[Legendary Pokémon]] and [[Ultra Beast]]s. The search/sorting function is only present in the Alola Pokédex proper. In addition to the features available in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, a new option is present, that allows to search for Pokémon whose {{rf|Alolan|Form}} has been seen. There is no National Pokédex mode in these games.


===Evaluation===
There are various mechanisms to evaluate the number of Pokémon in the Pokédex. These mechanisms will display a quote relating to the number of Pokémon seen or caught, often including a hint to the player of how to progress.

In all games in which [[Professor Oak]] appears, he will evaluate the player's Pokédex according to the number of Pokémon they have caught. In games which feature the [[National Pokédex]], Oak's evaluation takes this into account, but in a different way according to the game:
* In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Oak gives specific quotes according to the number of Pokémon caught in the regional Pokédex, and a general quote according to whether they have completed the National Pokédex or not
* In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, Oak will only comment on the National Pokédex, according to the number of Pokémon caught
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Oak will comment on both the regional and National Pokédexes, according to the number of Pokémon caught

In [[Hoenn]]-based games, [[Professor Birch]] will evaluate the player's Pokédex:
* In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, Birch comments on the regional Pokédex, according to the number of Pokémon caught, but only after [[Wally]] catches a {{p|Ralts}}. He will also give the number of Pokémon caught in the National dex, after it is obtained
* In {{game|Emerald}}, it works the same as {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, except that Birch will start to evaluate after the player gets the [[PokéNav]]
* In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, Birch will comment on the regional Pokédex according to the number of Pokémon seen, and the national Pokédex according to the number caught

In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, as well as Oak evaluating the National dex as noted above, [[Professor Rowan]] will also evaluate the regional dex according to the number seen.

In {{game4|Black|White|Black 2|White 2}}, [[Professor Juniper]] will evaluate the regional Pokédex according to both seen and caught Pokémon, while [[Cedric Juniper]] will evaluate the National Pokédex.

In {{g|X and Y}}, [[Professor Sycamore]] will evaluate all three regional Pokédexes according to seen Pokémon, and the National Pokédex according to caught Pokémon.

In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, the [[Rotom Pokédex]] itself will evaluate according to the number of Pokémon seen in each of the four islands as well as in [[Alola]] as a whole.

In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], the [[Rotom Phone]] itself will evaluate according to the number of Pokémon seen in the main area of Galar, the [[Isle of Armor]], and the [[Crown Tundra]].

===Completion===
[[File:Diploma RB.png|thumb|Diploma awarded in Red and Blue]]
:''See also: [[Diploma]]''
Completing the Pokédex is a common goal of Trainers and carries with it much esteem due to its difficulty, which has gradually escalated due to the fact that around 100 new Pokémon are introduced with each new generation. However, this is mitigated to a degree by new features added to the games, such as Wi-Fi and the [[Global Trade System]] in [[Generation IV]], and a less restrictive trading system (between PC boxes instead of only active teams) in [[Generation V]]. The exclusion of event Pokémon as a requirement for completing the Pokédex also makes it possible for people with no access to event distributions to complete the Pokédex.

[[File:XY National Diploma.png|thumb|left|250px|The diploma awarded for the completion of the [[National Pokédex]] in {{pkmn|X and Y}}]]
The in-game rewards are usually a congratulations from the director's avatar and a [[diploma]], usually one for completing the regional Pokédex and one for the National Pokédex. In {{v2|Emerald}}, the player could choose from one of the Johto [[starter Pokémon]] for completing the Hoenn Dex. The completion of the Pokédex also usually allows the player to upgrade their {{ga|Trainer Card}}. Also, in {{game|Black and White|s}}, the diploma will appear on the shelf in the player's bedroom.

In Generations I to III, the completion of the regional Pokédex is tracked by how many Pokémon the player has caught. However, in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, the regional Pokédex is tracked simply by how many Pokémon the player has seen. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, though, it again registers only Pokémon that have been caught. In Generation V, though [[Professor Juniper]] originally evaluates the player's regional Pokédex based on the Pokémon the player has seen, they may still only receive a diploma after having caught all regional Pokémon. Completion of the National Pokédex is always based only on the number of Pokémon caught.

In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2}}, the system is revised to give the player more in-game recognition of their achievements. Once all the Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex have been seen, Professor Juniper presents the player a [[Permit]], allowing access to the [[Nature Preserve]]. Once the player has caught all of the Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex, Professor Juniper will give the player an [[Oval Charm]] which increases the chances of finding [[Pokémon Egg]]s at the [[Pokémon Day Care]]. When the player completes the [[National Pokédex]], Professor Juniper gives the player a [[Shiny Charm]], which increases the chances of encountering and hatching [[Shiny Pokémon]].

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], [[Professor Sycamore]] will reward the player with an [[Oval Charm]] upon seeing all Pokémon in the Kalos Pokédex, except for {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}}. Upon completing the [[National Pokédex]], the player will receive a [[Shiny Charm]] from Sycamore.

In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], [[Professor Birch]] will reward the player with an [[Oval Charm]] upon seeing all Pokémon in the Hoenn Pokédex, except for {{p|Jirachi}}. Should the player complete the [[National Pokédex]], Birch will also reward the player with a [[Shiny Charm]]. Also in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the diplomas given by the director can be displayed in the player's [[Secret Base]] and can be viewed in the same way when obtaining it from the director. Other players visiting the secret base cannot see the full image on the diplomas, but instead will view it as an "impressive certificate".

==In the side games==
===Pokémon Stadium series===
{{main|Pokédex (Stadium)}}

The Pokédex is available in all games of the [[Pokémon Stadium series]]. It includes a 3D visualization of the Pokédex from [[core series]] games connected via [[Transfer Pak]].

! class="roundybottom" style="background:#CCCCCC" | {{pkmn|Stadium (English)}}
! class="roundybottom" style="background:#CCCCCC" | {{pkmn|Stadium 2}}
|}

Additionally, only in [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|the English version]] of Pokémon Stadium, the [[rental Pokémon]] are listed in the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]] order. This is not the case with [[Pokémon Stadium (Japanese)|the Japanese version]], which lacks rental Pokémon and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], which displays rental Pokémon in alphabetical order.

===Pokémon Bank===
As part of its version 1.3 update to be compatible with [[Generation VII]], a National Pokédex feature was also added to [[Pokémon Bank]]. Bank's National Pokédex is able to display Pokédex entries from any Generation VI as well as Pokémon Sun and Moon. The Pokédex is updated based on the data of any game that is used to connect to Pokémon Bank.

Pokémon Bank's National Pokédex has an extensive search feature, including the ability to filter Pokémon by the games they are naturally available in (not counting the possibility of obtaining a Pokémon by breeding or evolving), as well as the ability to show the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto]], [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto]], "[[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Good Old Hoenn]]", [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh]], {{OBP|List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number|Black 2 and White 2|Unova}}, [[List of Pokémon by Kalos Pokédex number|Kalos]] (divided into Central, Coastal, and Mountain), [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation VI)|Hoenn]], and [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Sun and Moon)|Alola]] Pokédex orders. While the application has since been updated to be compatible with {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, and later, {{g|HOME}}, the Pokédex was never updated to include the Pokémon and Pokédex from the former two games.

===Pokémon HOME===
[[Pokémon HOME]] includes the full National Pokédex. It includes every Pokédex description since [[Pokémon X and Y]], for each Pokémon. Completing the National Pokédex makes the player eligible to [[List of game-based Pokémon distributions in Generation VIII#Magearna|receive]] an [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Magearna|Original Color]] {{p|Magearna}}, made available for the first time in this alternate form.

When the player makes contact with a [[Pokémon Bank]] account for the first time, their National Pokédex on HOME will update and sync to include the entries on their National Pokédex from Bank up to {{p|Magearna}}. Because Bank's National Pokédex was never updated to include Pokémon beyond that, this feature does not extend to {{p|Marshadow}}, {{p|Poipole}}, {{p|Naganadel}}, {{p|Stakataka}}, {{p|Blacephalon}}, and {{p|Zeraora}}.

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Pinball series===
{{main|Pokédex (Pinball)}}

The Pokédex (also named "Poké Dex" with a space) is available from the [[main menu]] and displays a list of caught and seen Pokémon in the games [[Pokémon Pinball]] and [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]].

===Pokémon Tetris===
In [[Pokémon Tetris]], the Pokédex is available in the menu at the beginning of the game. It is a list of the Pokémon that were captured in the Tetris game, and how many of each species was captured. Each captured Pokémon has 3 images: the full detailed image that appears when a Pokémon species is captured for the first time in the Tetris game, the small black silhouette that appears when a Pokémon species is available for capture in the Tetris game but was never captured before, and the small drawing which appears when a previously captured Pokémon species is available to be captured again in the Tetris game. All Pokémon appear as unidentified "----------" lines by default, until they are captured.

There are 249 Pokémon in this game, listed in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex order]]. Almost all Pokémon from [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]] are available, except {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Celebi}}, which don't appear in the Pokédex. The slot #151 (Mew) is empty and the cursor can't point to it, while the slot #251 (Celebi) does not appear in the list since the Pokédex ends at the slot #250 ({{p|Ho-Oh}}). A Poké Ball symbol serves as the cursor, which the player can use to point at any listed Pokémon.

===Pokémon Ranger series===
In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], and [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]], there is no Pokédex, but they have regional Browsers that also list Pokémon and give them their own Browser number unique for each region. All Browsers can search for Pokémon by name, [[Poké Assist]], {{OBP|Field Move|Ranger}}, the Almia Browser can also search by Browser Number. The Fiore Browser can list Pokémon by Browser Number, letter, weight, and height.

===Pokémon Trading Card Game series===
In {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} and [[Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!]], there is no Pokédex. However, when the "Check" command is used on any Pokémon {{TCG GB|card}}, the player may see information such as its Pokédex entry, {{pkmn|category}}, height (known as "length"), weight, and [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex number]]. This is based on the cards from the real-life {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}}, which also include the same information.

The {{OBP|Pokédex|Base Set 87}} card is available in both games. The {{OBP|Imakuni?|CoroCoro promo}} card (found in both games) states that [[Tomoaki Imakuni|Imakuni?]] is a creature not listed in the Pokédex.

Additionally, the {{DL|PC|card album}} in the [[PC]] is a similar feature to the Pokédex. It lists cards in order and the quantity of cards owned by the player, not counting repeated cards. In both games, the cards are usually organized by their [[index number]] hidden in the internal data, which separates the Pokémon cards by {{TCG|type}} and then orders them by their [[National Pokédex]] number.

==In the anime==
[[File:Zoey Glameow Pokédex scan.png|thumb|220px|A Pokédex scanning a {{TP|Zoey|Glameow}}]]
===Main series===
When a young [[Sam]], who later turned out to be {{an|Professor Oak}}'s younger self, was accidentally warped to a future of his own time, {{Ash}} explained to him how the Pokédex works, unknowingly giving him an idea. This is an example of a {{wp|causal loop}}, meaning the idea for the Pokédex came out of nowhere.

In ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', Ash received his first Pokédex, apparently nicknamed "Dexter". Throughout the series, Ash uses it to either identify {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} he is not familiar with, check a Pokémon's moves, or identify Pokémon on request. Occasionally, though, Ash will scan Pokémon he has already seen, likely to either refresh his memory or out of curiosity.

In ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency]]'', [[Officer Jenny]] informed Ash that the Pokédex can be used as an {{wp|Identity document|ID card}}. Since then, Ash has used his Pokédex to register for the various [[Pokémon League]]s he has participated in. As shown in ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'', the Pokédex can also be used by {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s registering to obtain a [[Contest Pass]] for entering [[Pokémon Contest]]s.

In ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', {{an|Brock}} informed Ash that a [[Pokémon Trainer]] can use their Pokédex to exchange their Pokémon.

[[File:Ash Dawn Pokédexes.png|thumb|left|220px|{{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} using the Pokédex]]
In ''[[EP066|The Evolution Solution]]'', it was mentioned that the Pokédex entries were written by [[Professor Westwood V]] of {{an|Seafoam Island}}. Unlike the games, entries in the anime are pre-programmed into the database and do not require catching to give full information. In this way, they act more as a true encyclopedia than a data-recording device. However, it should be noted that information relayed to the user may vary from time to time. This may happen even if the Pokédex remains unchanged in any way.

To look up information on a particular species, Trainers may simply point the Pokédex at an individual or manually enter it in. The Pokédex will then display a picture and read the entry out loud. The image displayed will be [[Ken Sugimori]]'s official artwork. In ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', however, a stylized art of {{p|Raikou}} was shown when {{jo|Jimmy}} looked it up.

In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'', it was revealed that it can identify the Pokémon's [[level]] and learned [[move]]s, even for [[wild Pokémon]]. Apparently, a picture or video recording of sufficient quality can also be scanned for information.

[[File:Pokédex no data.png|thumb|220px|A Pokédex displaying the "no data" message]]
Attempting to identify an unknown Pokémon, usually one not native to the region the Pokédex was designed for, yields the message "no data". This message may also appear when scanning a {{pkmn2|Mythical}} or [[Legendary Pokémon]].

In [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], and [[Unova]], the Pokédex has a male voice; while in [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], and [[Kalos]], it has a female voice. The upgraded Pokédex Ash and {{an|Serena}} received at the end of ''[[XY093|All Eyes on the Future!]]'' also has a male voice in the Japanese version. The gender of the voice may vary in some international dubs.

Like in the games, the Pokédex has gone through various designs. This includes its shape and way of opening, display, as well as the aforementioned voice. The Unova Pokédex redesign in the anime is significant, as it shows all the viewing angles from the Pokémon, with the exception of the back.

Trainers without the luxury of a Pokédex may have access to other means of finding information. Some use high-tech computers, like {{an|Giovanni}} in ''[[DP080|The Thief That Keeps On Thieving!]]'' or [[Shingo]] in ''[[EP140|Wired for Battle!]]''. In several episodes, [[James]] used a deck of cards, which slightly resemble {{Trading Card Game}} cards. The deck of cards was replaced with a hologram laptop in ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'', and with a book in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Kanto Pokédex PO.png|thumb|250px|Kanto Pokédex in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
The Kanto Pokédex appeared during the [[Pokémon Origins]] miniseries, where they served the same purpose as in the original {{game|Red and Blue|s}} games. They recorded basic info of any Pokémon encountered, and detailed info of any Pokémon caught. Much like in the games, one was given to both {{OBP|Red|Origins}} and {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} by [[Professor Oak]]. By the end of the [[PO04|last episode]] of the miniseries, Red had managed to capture all 150 [[Generation I]] Pokémon, excluding only {{p|Mew}}. Blue's Pokédex was later crushed when his {{p|Blastoise}} accidentally crashed onto it while he was battling {{p|Mewtwo}} in the [[Cerulean Cave]].

Besides listing all the caught Pokémon in numerical order, the Pokédex was also able to sort the recorded Pokémon data by other factors, such as the type, as seen when Professor Oak tried to identify the Pokémon Blue had fought by going through the list of {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon in Red's Pokédex.

===The Electric Tale of Pikachu===
[[File:Pokédex EToP.png|thumb|150px|A Pokédex in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
In [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], Pokémon Trainers receive their Pokédexes when their application to become a Pokémon Trainer is accepted. A Pokédex contains information on a Pokémon's moves and abilities, as well as general information (such as how some Pokémon, like {{p|Pikachu}}, dislike [[Poké Ball]]s) and the ability to tell if a Pokémon has critically low [[HP]]. In addition, all Pokédexes contain a copy of the Trainer's license.

Updated versions of the Pokédex are released from time to time: in ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]'', {{an|Professor Oak}} gave {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} a beta version of the latest model of the Pokédex.

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Pokédex Adventures.png|thumb|250px|The Pokédexes of the holders from the {{chap|Emerald}}]]
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], only a [[Pokédex holder|select group of people]] have Pokédexes, and they are highly respected as a result. The Pokédexes come in groups of three per region, and are generally given out along with a starter Pokémon from the region's Professor. The only exceptions to this rule is Unova Pokédexes which have five (one of them is destroyed), at first it was three, and two more were added later. Since the {{chap|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}, the Pokédexes have switched mainly to two. Each Pokédex has a holder registration system, meaning when it is assigned, the holder must register his or her name and fingerprints, which means each of the Pokédexes is only allowed to have one rightful owner. However, it is possible to transfer data from one Pokédex to an upgraded version, leaving the Pokédex that had its data transferred with no rightful owner, and thus, the Pokédex would be able to be reassigned to a new owner. It is shown that when the three Pokédexes from the same region are put together, a Pokédex will make a beeping sound as a signal to indicate that another Pokédex is nearby. This only works when held by their rightful owner, as seen in ''[[PS085|Gimme Shellder]]''. This signal seems to apply for all models of the Pokédex, and the Sinnoh Pokédex holder trio refers to it as the "morning sound" (Japanese: '''朝の音'''), due to it being used to wake the trio up every morning while they were together.

Much like in the {{pkmn|anime}}, the Pokédex in Pokémon Adventures displays the known moves of an individual Pokémon, as well as its current health, its cry, its current moves, and can even track them. Unlike the anime, however, the Pokédex entries are usually taken directly from the games and as such contains readable text rather than having the information spoken out loud. The Pikachu interaction feature from {{game|Yellow}} was added to {{adv|Red}}'s Pokédex, allowing him to see its mood (though he never is seen making much use of it, as {{adv|Yellow}} was in possession of his Pokédex for most of the {{chap|Yellow}}, and could tell [[Pika]]'s mood on her own anyway). The Pokédex's function takes over much of the control the games give to the player, being able to prevent a Pokémon's evolution, whereas Trainers without a Pokédex have no choice in the matter. As seen in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]'', the Pokédex can discover where a Pokémon was first met by its Trainer, much as the feature added in {{game|Crystal}} allows one to view a Pokémon's origin. In addition to these functions, the Pokédex is able to record and project hologram images and can serve as a portable transporter with the assistance of a [[Pokégear]] and Mobile Adapter cable.

In the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, {{adv|Professor Oak}} asks {{adv|Red}}, {{adv|Blue}}, and {{adv|Green}} to return their Pokédexes to him, so that he could upgrade them to National Dex. Though in the process, they get stolen by [[Orm]] and used by [[Carr]] to create a "black Pokédex" (Japanese: '''黒い図鑑'''). Later in the story, the new Pokédexes are received by the trio, and Red's old one is given to Yellow, while Blue and Green's old Pokédexes are destroyed by {{adv|Deoxys}}. In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, the Johto Pokédex holders get new Pokédexes as well, though it is unknown what happened to their original Pokédexes. In the {{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, the Hoenn Pokédex holders get new Pokédexes as well, though it is unknown what happened to their original Pokédexes. In addition, the Pokédex formerly held by Cheren was later given back to Cedric Juniper, and eventually destroyed by {{adv|N}}. The third Kalos Pokédex was found by [[Malva]] along with {{TP|Malva|Fennekin}}, but it was destroyed after she deemed it worthless.

There are currently 23 Pokédexes in operation, four Pokédexes destroyed, and six Pokédexes that have their statuses unknown, coming in eleven models based on region and mode. In addition, there is Team Rocket's black Pokédex, which is also currently missing.

While most of the holders have red Pokédexes, the Pokédex can also come in a variety of colors. Crystal, White, and Whitley have pink Pokédexes, while Diamond and Pearl carry a blue Pokédex and an orange Pokédex, respectively.

==In the TCG==
===Pokémon cards===
The {{TCG|Pokémon}} cards feature a Pokédex text entry, as seen in the games. The Pokédex entries are usually copied from a [[core series]] game, although there are [[Double Crisis (TCG)|exceptions]]. They also include the Pokémon's {{pkmn|category}}, [[List of Pokémon by height|height]] (originally printed as "length" in the English translation by [[Wizards of the Coast]]), [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]], and [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex number]].

===Pokédex cards===
[[File:PokédexHANDY910isDiamondPearl111.jpg|thumb|220px|Pokédex HANDY910is]]
This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring the Pokédex in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. The Hoenn region's model did not receive a TCG card, and the Generation I and Generation II Pokédexes, which featured model numbers on the Japanese cards (HANDY505 and HANDY808 respectively), did not show these model numbers on the English card. The Generation V Pokédex has no model number even in the Japanese card; it also has the same effect and English name as the Generation I Pokédex. Every card has allowed the player to look at a certain number of cards from the top of their deck and then either arrange them as they like, or in the case of Pokédex HANDY910is, choose one to put in their hand.

==Trivia==
* {{an|Professor Oak}} has written {{wp|senryū}} about the Pokédex in two of his lectures:
** For ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', the [[Professor Oak's Big Pokémon Encyclopedia]] featured this senryū: 「こまったら　ひらいてみよう　ポケモンずかん」 ''"When troubled, let's open the Pokédex."''
** For ''[[BW003|A Sandile Gusher of Change!]]'', the [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Live Caster]] featured this senryū: 「こまったらけんさくいっぱつポケモンずかん」 ''"If you are stuck, one search of the Pokédex is all you need."''
* Many Pokédexes appear similar to Nintendo consoles, and other popular electronics.
** The Generation III Kanto Pokédex resembles a [[Game Boy Advance SP]], while the Generation VII Kanto Pokédex resembles a {{wp|2-in-1 PC}}.
** The Generation II Johto Pokédex resembles a [[Game Boy Color]], whilst the Generation IV Johto Pokédex is in similar appearance to a [[Nintendo DSi]].
** Both versions of the Hoenn Pokédex resemble a [[Game Boy Advance]].
** The Sinnoh Pokédex resembles a [[Nintendo DS Lite]].
** The Unova Pokédex resembles an {{wp|iPod Nano}}.
** The Alola Rotom Pokédex resembles a {{wp|tablet computer}}.
** The Galar Rotom Phone resembles a {{wp|smartphone}}.
* In most canons, the Pokédex is evidently encased in material that is invulnerable to almost anything within reason. It has been soaked in water and (in the anime) electrified and exposed to high-temperature flames, all with no ill effect. It is also voice-sensitive. There are some limitations to its ability; certain circumstances can prevent the Pokédex from accurately identifying its target:
** A Pokédex which has not received a [[National Pokédex|National Mode]] upgrade will not display any information on Pokémon not usually found in its home region, even if those Pokémon have been caught, and if captured, its number will be listed as "???" (or not listed at all in the case of Sun and Moon) in the [[Party|summary]] screen.
** Similarly, {{Gary}}'s Pokédex failed to identify {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}} at the [[Viridian Gym]], displaying only static interference.
* All of Ash's Pokédexes have been red, as are all of the Pokédexes for male player characters in the games, while other characters have had other colors. May had a yellow one in Kanto, Paul has a dark blue Pokédex, Dawn has a pink Pokédex, [[Rhyanna]] has an ice blue Pokédex, [[Narissa]] has an orange Pokédex, and [[Mamie]] has a lavender Pokédex.
* The only Pokédex not seen in the anime is the one introduced in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].
* The Kanto regional Pokédex (Generations I and III) and the Sinnoh regional Pokédex ({{v2|Diamond and Pearl|s}}) have 151 members, the smallest of all regional Pokédexes. The largest regional Pokédex is the Kalos regional Pokédex, with 454 members.
* The Pokédex models of [[Generation]]s {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|II}} rounded the weights of all Pokémon to full pounds except for {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Haunter}}, despite the Japanese games' use of tenths of kilograms since the start. From [[Generation III]] onward, all weights have been given to the nearest tenth of a pound.
* The Pokédex has usually lost several buttons with every new model, due to various upgrades: Kanto's first model has twenty-two buttons; Kanto's third model has nine; Johto's original model has five; Kanto's second model, both of Hoenn's models, and Sinnoh's only have three; and Johto's second model, both of Unova's models, the Kalos model, and the Alola model all apparently have no buttons whatsoever, solely using the touch-screen interface.
* Numerous toy Pokédexes have been manufactured by companies like {{wp|Tiger Electronics}} and [[Jakks Pacific]].
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the [[Pokégear]]'s map displays the hat of Ethan's icon in its updated Generation IV design; however, the Pokédex map displays the icon's hat in its Generation II design.
* The Pokédex entries in {{game|Black and White|s}} for Pokémon not native to [[Unova]] are the same as those from {{game|Platinum}}.

Pokémon the Series

2008-12-12T21:07:53Z

GoldChaos: /* Movies */

The '''Pokémon anime''', often just referred to as just ''the'' anime by Pokémon fans, is a collective term referring to currently {{#expr: {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Original series episodes}} - 8 + {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Advanced Generation episodes}} - 6 + {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Diamond & Pearl episodes}} - 3}} main series episodes, 11 movies, and a number of side-story episodes focusing on [[Pokémon]]— mostly about [[Ash Ketchum]] and his quest to become a {{g|Master}}. He travels around the {{g|world}} to earn [[badges]] by defeating [[Gym Leaders]] or gaining the respect from them, in order to participate in the [[Pokémon League Conference|Pokémon Leagues]]. The main protagonist of the show is [[Ash Ketchum]] who was joined by his first Pokémon and best friend, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and {{ashfr|various companions}}.

==Description==
The anime is a driving force for the sale of Pokémon games, and it is based on it. However the anime takes many concepts from the games and puts a unique spin on them, most famously, Ash beginning his journey with his {{AP|Pikachu}}. Ash travels to various [[regions]] to catch new Pokémon, earn [[badges]] from [[Gym]] {{g|battle}}s, and compete in regional competitions. However it does contain anime-exclusive elements like the the [[Orange League]]. Along the way, Ash battles his rivals and continues to refine his battle prowess. [[Team Rocket]] continually tries to steal Pikachu because of its strength exceeds that of a normal {{p|Pikachu}} by far. Team Rocket themselves are a source of comedy and are the routine "bad guys" who show up every episode and inevitably get defeated.

Like many cartoons, there are many moments of humor and action within the anime. [[Ash's friends]] have varied over the series and continue to show up after their departure from the main cast. Both {{an|May}} and {{an|Dawn}} are [[Pokémon Coordinators]] and participate in [[Pokémon Contests]], which focus more on beauty and precision as opposed to Pokémon Battles that focus on strength and speed. Other friends of Ash have slightly less defined goals. [[Misty]] is training to become the strongest {{t|Water}} Pokémon trainer, and [[Brock]] desires to become an excellent [[Pokémon Breeder]]. {{Tracey}} pursues a job as a [[Pokémon Watcher]] while [[Max]] currently has no goal at all, as Max is too young to own Pokémon, however, he does desire to be a great trainer as well.

The series is produced in Japan, and the Japanese version is considered the "true version", meaning that whatever is said in it is more true that a "dubbed" or translated version. "Dubs" are produced in various languages and they are translated after the English dubbed version is produced. The Japanese version is split into three series, but in English, the episodes are broken into roughly 52-episode "seasons", which doesn't exist in Japan, where the series has aired near continuously since its premiere.

The show is mainly aimed at children and as such, does not explore mature topics such as death, although there are some references meant for adult fans. The show generally tries to instill a sense of compassion for others in its viewers, as many characters within the show can be seen lecturing on that topics. The anime is also a large reason for the popularity of the games and the fact that Pokémon is currently the second-best selling game series in the world.

==Trivia==
* Animator Masāki Iwane 岩根正明 [[n:Masaaki Iwane: Pokémon anime originally slated for 18-month run|once stated]] that the series was originally slated for a 1½-year run, which corresponds approximately to the length of the [[Kanto]] region [[Pokémon: Indigo League|saga]] (had it not been delayed due to [[EP038|the Porygon incident]]). Due to its popularity during the run, however, the show was extended and continues to be one of the longest running video game based anime.

GoldChaos: /* Posters */ new section

== Arceus ==

I'll clear one thing up before I kick off the main point of the message: I fully believe that a movie featuring Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, and Spear Pillar will feature Arceus. HOWEVER, in the blurb for PikaProj09 on the movie list article (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_movie) it is stated that the movie is "expected to feature Arceus." By whom? By whomever happened to write that sentence. I don't think that should be there until there is some actual proof beyond opinion. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]]
:Opinion... of 90% of the fandom. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 08:56, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Yes, but does that even matter? No doubt we will have it confirmed soon, we can readd it then. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 03:20, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
:Here is a photo that could help with proving Arceus is in the movie. The pic is from pokebeach but they only outlined part of what seems to be part of the "pointed ring" that is showed in the light.I circled the other parts. Looking at it from different angles, sometimes I think i can see its ears and a small part of its head. But that's what i think i saw so i didn't circle it. You can see it very well in the first pic. Since many people say that arceus is in the movie, I'd say this is very good proof.
[[Image:Arceus-comparison.jpg]]

Sorry it is so small as soon as I enlarge it, I will upload it.

Edit:
OK, so here is the enlarged pic, I know the arceus parts are faded, but you can still see the major parts.
[[Image:Arceus-comparison 2.jpg]]

Once I get the trailer, I will be able to upload a MUCH better and clearer picture.
[[User:Pikachugal|Pikachugal]] 02:22, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

:Calm down, friend. Arceus in this movie is too obvius. But IT IS UNCONFIRMED. We just have to wait for an official source --[[User:Nick.|Nick.]], <sc>[[User talk:Nick.|something to say?]]</sc> 02:56, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

==Naming==
You know, since we don't go moving around every episode to its English title... why don't we move all of the movies to Pikachu Project (year)? Anyone think it'd be a good idea? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 08:56, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

:I dunno, in my opinion it's a bad idea
:does that mean we change all the Pokémon to their national dex number too?----[[User:Ultamatecharizard|Ultamatecharizard]] 22:46, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

== Think about it...Makes sense! ==

"''The producers went to Greece in August, 2008; this confirms the basis for the movie's setting.''"
And looking at the above posts about Arceus. Now, I know a little about Myths and things, and remember how many '''gods''' they had in Greece, back in days far gone? Anyone else think that setting a movie in a place were they were once many ''Mythological Gods'' would be a good place for the so called "''God Pokémon''"? C: Just a theory. [[User:Takoto|~~Takoto]]| サソデイ 09:56, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

:Still doesn't make it official. Even if the odds point to Arceus being in the movie, we're waiting until Arceus is actually confirmed to appear in the movie to add that information. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 16:23, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
::Ah, I said it was 'just a theory' D: I never said it was official! [[User:Takoto|~~Takoto]]| サソデイ 16:48, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
:Then why does this page (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_movie) still talk about Arceus? May I please remove that? [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 03:22, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Bulbapedia is not for theories. And yes, that thing about Arceus should be removed. --[[User:Nick.|Nick.]], <sc>[[User talk:Nick.|something to say?]] </sc> 03:30, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

== New Pokemon Speculation. ==

Ok, Guys, I just want to say that, those of you still maintaining the site, I'll keep in the part on the Gen V Pokémon reveal speculation until December the 15th, only then, can we determine whether it should be kept in (As most of the info for the movie will be unveiled on that date.), if there is no mention of any Pokémon belonging to the new generation (not even showing a sihlouette, for that matter) then we must remove that tidbit. Got it? good. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 19:49, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

:didn't seribii say it was going to be tommorow? [[User:Ultamatecharizard|Ultamate]][[User Talk:Ultamatecharizard|Charizard]] 20:39, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
::Strange... the article says that it's December 15th, Oh well... [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 20:58, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
:The default for any speculation is to take it out no matter how much of the fandom believes it, not to leave it an article just because we can't disprove it. You also can't disprove that Nintendo may reveal a Gen VI Pokémon on the same day, but since we have no proof we don't state it. I'm going to delete whatever it is you're talking about unless you can change my mind. [[User:LordArceus|'''Lord''']][[User talk:LordArceus|'''Arc''']][[Special:Contributions/LordArceus|'''eus''']] 20:46, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
:: Can someone upload a picture of the unkown Pokémon siloette from DP104? <sc>I think thats the right Episode </sc> [[User:ShinyPikachu|ShinyPika <3 ALS]] 22:16, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
: Here are two pics of the electric type. One of them i added an arrow and circle to the part of the pokemon that was showing. I think these are good pics for the page. The original photo is from pokebeach.
[[Image:5th_generation_pokemon.jpg]] [[Image:5th_generation_pokemon_2.jpg]]

[[User:Pikachugal|Pikachugal]] 01:56, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

==is it just me?==

can anyone see the other pictures here? [[User:Ultamatecharizard|Ultamate]][[User Talk:Ultamatecharizard|Charizard]] 20:39, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

:What images? If you're referring to the two links above, they were deleted for being copyright violations since they were stolen from [[Pokébeach]], one of them altered. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 23:28, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

== Eclipse ==

Check it out, the three legendary titans are battling during a total solar eclipse. I'll leave it to others to point out signifigance but it is noteworthy. [[User:Aura-Knight|Aura-Knight]] 23:18, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
:seeing how time and space are probably going to get ripped a new one in this movie that eclipse would be fitting [[User:Ultamatecharizard|Ultamate]][[User Talk:Ultamatecharizard|Charizard]] 20:48, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

== Why Pichu? A couple intrepretations ==

*A. This Pichu is captured by Brock sometime soon.
*B. This Pichu is owned by the major human character of the film.
*C. This Pichu is {{AP|Pikachu}} before he was given to Ash.
*D. Just a wild Pichu that just so happens to be in the right place at the right time.

Those seem to be the only major possibilities, and I get the third from Space-''Time'' Void [[User:Aura-Knight|Aura-Knight]] 22:27, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

:{{tt|Or it isn't actually Pichu, but a Poké that looks just like it.|Your ideas are better}} [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|Smarter than the average bear!]] 22:29, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
::I actually like idea C. When do we get a release date for this thing? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 01:46, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
:::No idea. Hmm... I gotta wonder why it has that spiky ear though... maybe they're lieing and it WILL be a gen V Pokémon! *Laughs at self* [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|Smarter than the average bear!]] 01:49, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
::::Maybe it is one of the [[Pichu Bros.]] and the other one was lost due to the fighting between the Dragon Trio, and this one is looking for his lost brother. ''[[User:Maverick Nate|'''Maverick''']][[User talk:Maverick Nate|'''Nate''']]'' 01:51, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::Except for the fact that it looks nothing like one of the Pichu Bros. And before you say it, the distortion could have changed his ears? I don't think so. Anyways, I figured C. would be the favorite, its the one I'm rooting for. [[User:Aura-Knight|Aura-Knight]] 01:58, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
::::::Maybe Dawn captures the Pichu. She's already somewhat like Ash already, what with the disobedient Mamoswine, the unevolved, overshown, initially unfriendly starter, the seeing a legendary at the start of her journey, need I go on? - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])'' 02:06, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::It is important to point out that ''nobody'' ever captures a Pokémon in the movies, so Brock or Dawn capturing it is probably very unlikely to happen. Personally, I back up the thought of it being [[Ash's Pikachu]] from the past (as [[Dialga]] controls time. - [[User:ElectricArbok|ElectricArbok]] 18:35, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
