The '''Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン{{tt|図鑑|ずかん}}''' ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia'') is an invaluable tool to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s in the [[Pokémon world]]. It gives information about all {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the world that are contained in its database, although it differs in how it acquires and presents information over the different media. However, they are also only given to a few Trainers at a time, generally to the ones that are felt to have exceptional potential and skill. [[Regional Pokédex]]es give information about Pokémon native to a particular [[region]], while the [[National Pokédex]] records information about all known Pokémon. [[Professor Laventon]] is the first known researcher to have pioneered the concept of a Pokédex, while the digital version of it is a more recent invention created by [[Professor Oak]]. | The '''Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン{{tt|図鑑|ずかん}}''' ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia'') is an invaluable tool to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s in the [[Pokémon world]].

Pokédex entries typically describe a Pokémon in only two or three sentences. They may give background information on the habitat or activities of a Pokémon in the wild or other information on the Pokémon's history or anatomy. Pokédex entries also include height, weight, [[cry]], [[footprint]] (prior to [[Generation VI]]), location, other forms, and a picture of the Pokémon. | '''Pokédex entries''' (Japanese: '''図鑑説明文''' ''illustrated encyclopedia explanatory note'') typically describe a Pokémon in only two or three sentences.
