While there are no strict rules that make a game a core series game, and previously assumed rules are continuously broken, the games generally have a similar plot and mechanics.

The {{player}} begins the game in a small town or city of a given [[region]], having no {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of their own. Through a course of events, the player will receive a [[starter Pokémon]] from the region's [[Pokémon Professor]]; the starter Pokémon is always a choice of three, a {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, or {{t|Water}} type, and the character who will become the player's [[rival]] will choose (or already have) the Pokémon whose [[type]] is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against that of the player's choice. (The exceptions to this are {{game|Yellow}}, in which the player starts with {{p|Pikachu}} and the rival starts with {{p|Eevee}}, {{game|Sun and Moon|s}}, in which the player's rival picks the Pokémon weakest to the player's starter, and {{game|Black and White|s}}, in which the player has two rivals, who each choose one of the starter Pokémon not picked by the player.)

After this point, the player begins to journey across the entire region (each with their own cities and towns, themselves connected by [[route]]s), {{pkmn2|caught|capturing}} any [[wild Pokémon]] he or she chooses to, and using a [[party]] he or she assembles to take on the eight [[Gym Leader]]s of the region. Alongside encounters with both other {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and repeated interactions with their rival, the player must also stop the plans of a [[Villainous teams|villainous team]], which often involve the manipulation of [[Legendary Pokémon]].
