List of Pokémon that appear in every regional Pokédex: Difference between revisions

This is a '''list of Pokémon that appear in every regional Pokédex''', listed in their [[National Pokédex]] [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|order]]. This worldwide distribution is analogous to {{wp|cosmopolitan distribution}}, the notion of a species that can be found anywhere on the planet.  

There remain some Pokémon that have been included in every [[regional Pokédex]] since their release, such as {{p|Heracross}}, but no Pokémon was included in the [[Kanto]] Pokédex, the [[Paldea]] Pokédex, and the [[Kitakami]] Pokédex. The remaining Pokémon are listed by generation.

While these Pokémon have appeared in every regional Pokédex since their debut, they do not need to appear in every ''version'' of every regional Pokédex. The [[Unova]] Pokédex of {{game|Black and White|s}} was expanded to become the New Unova Pokédex in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}. The [[Sinnoh]] Pokédex of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the [[Johto]] Pokédex of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the [[Hoenn]] Pokédex of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, and the [[Alola]] Pokédex of {{g|Sun and Moon}} were also expanded for their appearances in {{game|Platinum}}, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, respectively. Pokémon in the [[Isle of Armor]] Pokédex and the [[Crown Tundra]] Pokédex are counted as being in expansions of the [[Galar]] Pokédex and Pokémon are only required to be in one section of the [[Kalos]] regional Pokédex.
