The canon of the [[core series]] considers the following:
*Events occurring in the [[core series]] games are the ultimate canon.
*Events occurring in the [[core series]] games are the ultimate canon.
*{{player|Player}} choices such as the hero's gender and [[starter Pokémon]] are generally not standardized within the canon, with the exception of {{ga|Red}} in the Generation I games and their remakes, who possesses all three starters (four if counting {{p|Pikachu}}) in later games.
*{{player|Player}} choices such as the hero's gender and [[starter Pokémon]] are generally not standardized within the canon, with the exception of {{ga|Red}} in the Generation I games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen}}, who possesses all three starters (four if counting {{p|Pikachu}}) in later games.
*In the case of conflicts between versions of a game, the later one such as a [[Third version#Release model|third version]] or [[remake]], supersedes. As such, [[Pokémon Crystal Version]] canonically supersedes its paired counterparts [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions]], and is itself superseded by remakes [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions]]. If equally new versions, such as paired versions, conflict, the canonical one is generally not standardized.
*Different versions of a game all occur in parallel universes. Both {{game|Emerald}} and {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} are canon, but occur in different universes.
*Content from [[Pokémon Stadium series|games]] [[My Pokémon Ranch|related]] [[Pokémon Colosseum|to]] the core series is canon unless it conflicts with events in the core series games, while content from unrelated spin-offs is generally non-canon.
*Content from side series games, such as [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], is canon to the core series unless it conflicts with events in the core series games. Content from unrelated spin-offs, such as the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], is generally non-canon.
*Canonical material via other forms of media, like [[Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 Animated Trailer|animated trailers]], manuals or merchandise, may exist depending on each case.
