Much as in the anime, the Pokédex in Pokémon Adventures displays the known moves of an individual Pokémon, as well as its current health, its cry, its current moves, and can even track them. Unlike in the anime, the Pokédex entries are usually taken directly from the games and as such contains readable text rather than having the information spoken out loud. The Pikachu interaction feature from {{game|Yellow}} was added to {{adv|Red}}'s Pokédex, allowing him to see its mood (though he never is seen making much use of it, as {{adv|Yellow}} was in possession of his Pokédex for most of the {{chap|Yellow}}, and could tell [[Pika]]'s mood on her own anyway). The Pokédex's function takes over much of the control the games give to the player, being able to prevent a Pokémon's evolution, whereas Trainers without a Pokédex have no choice in the matter. As seen in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]'', the Pokédex can discover where a Pokémon was first met by its Trainer, much as the feature added in {{game|Crystal}} allows one to view a Pokémon's origin. | Much as in the anime, the Pokédex in Pokémon Adventures displays the known moves of an individual Pokémon, as well as its current health, its cry, its current moves, and can even track them.

In the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, {{adv|Professor Oak}} asks {{adv|Red}}, {{adv|Blue}}, and {{adv|Green}} to return their Pokédexes to him, so that he could upgrade them to National Dex. Though in the process, they get stolen by [[Orm]] and used by [[Carr]] to create a "black Pokédex" (Japanese: '''黒い図鑑'''). Later in the story, the new Pokédexes are received by the trio, and Red's old one is given to Yellow. In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, the Johto Pokédex holders get new Pokédexes as well, though it is unknown what happened to their original Pokédexes. In addition, the Pokédex formerly held by Cheren was later given back to Cedric Juniper, and eventually destroyed. | In the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, {{adv|Professor Oak}} asks {{adv|Red}}, {{adv|Blue}}, and {{adv|Green}} to return their Pokédexes to him, so that he could upgrade them to National Dex.
