Pokédex entries by game

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

Black

Each follows its Trainer’s orders as best it can, but they sometimes fail to understand complicated commands.

White · Y · Alpha Sapphire

These Pokémon live in cities. They are accustomed to people. Flocks often gather in parks and plazas.

Black 2 · White 2 · X · Omega Ruby

This very forgetful Pokémon will wait for a new order from its Trainer even though it already has one.

Sword

Where people go, these Pokémon follow. If you’re scattering food for them, be careful— several hundred of them can gather at once.

Shield

It’s forgetful and not very bright, but many Trainers love it anyway for its friendliness and sincerity.
