Entries
The entries for each Pokémon are in an easy-to-read page setup. Each Pokémon has either an entire page to itself, or shares a page with another Pokémon. If a Pokémon has a Mega Evolution, it is listed immediately afterwards. Alolan Pokémon are listed after their Kantonian counterpart.
Name
Each entry is topped with a colored bar. These bars have the Pokémon's name, category and regions they can be found in (either Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos [Central, Coastal or Mountain], or Alola).
Stats
Each Pokémon has the following stats below its name:
- Type
- Description (based on its Pokédex entry)
- How to say it
- Imperial Height
- Imperial Weight
- Metric Height
- Metric Weight
- Possible Moves (moves the Pokémon will learn by leveling up)
Image and other information
Each Pokémon has an anime-style picture on its page. Legendary, Mythical Pokémon and Ultra Beasts are labelled as such under the colored bar and there is a glow around the Pokémon.
Evolution chain
At the very bottom of a Pokémon's entry is a diagram of its evolutionary family, including the Pokémon's Mega Evolution. Pokémon that do not evolve instead have the words "Does not evolve". A Pokémon that is on one side of a branched evolution will show itself, and the Pokémon it evolved from, but not the other side of the branch.
Trivia
- Unown's exclamation and question mark forms are omitted, despite having existed years before the book was printed.
- In the Barnes & Noble exclusive hardcover, the "Barnes & Noble exclusive" label is covering Cyndaquil.
- The included poster in the Barnes & Noble exclusive hardcover shows a picture of Mega Blastoise with Blastoise's name.
Errors
- Vikavolt is as known as the 'Levitate' Pokemon instead of the 'Stag Beetle' Pokemon.
- Sableye is missing the 'Type:'.
- Hoopa(Unbound) is as known as the 'Mischief' Pokemon instead of the 'Dijnn' Pokemon.
- Dusknoir's region is listed as Hoenn instead of Sinnoh.
