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. The Pokémon's name is at the top of the entry, with the category written underneath it.

Stats

Each Pokémon has the following stats below its name:

  1. How to say it
  2. Type
  3. Description
  4. Imperial Height
  5. Metric Height
  6. Metric Weight
  7. Possible Moves (moves the Pokémon will learn by leveling up)

Image and other information

Each Pokémon has artwork from Pokémon the Series on its page. Legendary, Mythical Pokémon, and Ultra Beasts are labelled as such next to their picture.

Evolution chain

At the very bottom of a Pokémon's entry is a diagram of its evolutionary line. 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. Any Evolutions or pre-Evolutions introduced in later generations are not included. Mega Evolutions are not included.

Trivia

  • Lycanroc's entry separately lists the moves that the Midday and Midnight forms learn exclusively.

Errors

  • Vikavolt's category is listed as the Levitate Pokémon instead of the Stag Beetle Pokémon.
