Pokedex FAQ
What is the National Pokédex?
The National Pokédex is the full list of Pokémon across all regions. It includes every species in the main series, even if they are not in a single regional dex. It is the most complete view of the Pokédex.
How are National Pokédex numbers ordered?
National Pokédex numbers usually follow the order of introduction by generation. Earlier regions appear first, with new species added at the end of their debut generation. This order stays consistent across games.
What does the National Pokédex list show?
This list shows every Pokémon with its number, name, and typing. It is useful for browsing stats, evolutions, and move options. You can jump from the list to detailed entries.
Does the National Pokédex include regional forms?
Regional forms are usually listed under their base species. Some games treat forms as separate entries, but the National Pokédex focuses on the main species list. Use form specific pages for detailed stats.
Why does the National Pokédex number matter?
The number gives a consistent identifier for each species across games. It makes it easier to compare Pokémon between regions and generations. Many references and databases use National Dex numbers.
Why do some Pokémon have different forms?
Forms represent different appearances or typings for the same species. Regional forms adapt to different environments, and some forms change with items or conditions. Each form can have unique stats or abilities.
How is the National Pokédex different from regional dexes?
Regional dexes only include Pokémon available in a specific game region. The National Pokédex combines all regions into one master list. That makes it best for complete collection tracking.
