Pokédex entries by game

Descriptions recorded in these games. This list does not establish where the Pokémon can be caught or transferred.

Diamond · Pearl · X · Omega Ruby

Additional software was installed to make it a better Pokémon. It began acting oddly, however.

Platinum · Black · White · Black 2 · White 2

Its programming was modified to enable work in alien dimensions. It did not work as planned.

Heartgold · Soulsilver · Y · Alpha Sapphire

Its programming was modified to enable it to travel through alien dimensions. Seems there might have been an error...

Sun

In order to create a more advanced Pokémon, an additional program was installed, but apparently it contained a defect that makes it move oddly.

Moon

Its program was modified to facilitate extra-dimensional activities, but that led to noticeably strange behavior.

Ultra Sun

Its behavior is noticeably unstable, which is apparently due to the incompetence of the engineer who updated its programming.

Ultra Moon

A faulty update was added to its programming. Its behavior is noticeably strange, so the experiment may have been a failure.

Sword

Porygon-Z had a program installed to allow it to move between dimensions, but the program also caused instability in Porygon-Z’s behavior.

Shield

Some say an additional program made this Pokémon evolve, but even academics can’t agree on whether Porygon-Z is really an evolution.

Legends Arceus

A curious item induced this evolution. The Pokémon's offensive capabilities have greatly increased, but the strangeness of its behavior has magnified in equal measure. This worries me.
