Trivia
Errors
Many errors are carried over from previous editions, so they are not listed here.
- On page 30, the description of the "Height Rules" section mentions Iris's Dragonite, despite not being present. This is likely due to the book recycling the content from previous editions and failing to update it.

- On page 43, Sylveon's weight is listed as 26.0 kg instead of 23.5 kg.
