The [[Pokédex]] lists a weight for each Pokémon species. In English, weight is displayed in {{wp|Pound (mass)|pounds}} (to one decimal place); in all other languages, it is displayed in {{wp|kilogram}}s (to one decimal place). All game mechanics based on weight use kilograms for their calculations.

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] (like in [[Pokémon GO]]), each individual Pokémon has its own weight, with the value in the Pokédex simply being an average weight for Pokémon of that species.<!-- Pokémon that weigh more than 125% of the average for their species are classified as XL, and Pokémon that weight less than 75% of the average are classified as XS; this designation has no in-game significance, other than such Pokémon being highlighted before being caught.-->

From [[Generation V]] onwards, there are several effects that can modify a Pokémon's weight in battle. They are applied in the order they are listed below.
* A Pokémon that uses {{m|Autotomize}} has its base weight decreased by 100&nbsp;kg (220&nbsp;lbs.) each time it uses the move and successfully changes its {{stat|Speed}}.
* A Pokémon that uses {{m|Autotomize}} has its base weight decreased by 100&nbsp;kg (220&nbsp;lbs.) each time it uses the move and successfully changes its {{stat|Speed}}.
* A Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Heavy Metal}} or {{a|Light Metal}} functions as twice or half its previously determined weight, respectively.

A Pokémon's weight cannot drop below 0.1&nbsp;kg. Weight is stored with a granularity of 0.1&nbsp;kg; if an effect halves a Pokémon's weight, the result is rounded down to the next-lower multiple of 0.1 (but cannot drop below the minimum 0.1&nbsp;kg).

In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]], all Pokémon have a scale value ranging from 0 to 255 that affects their displayed size. However, that scale value is purely aesthetic and has no other effect on gameplay.

Since [[Generation V]], certain visual and sound effects are applied when a Pokémon lands on the surface of a battlefield, depending on the Pokémon's weight (ignoring weight-changing effects). {{p|Diglett}}, {{p|Dugtrio}}, {{me|Gengar}}, and Pokémon that float above the surface of the battlefield do not cause any such effects. Pokémon holding an [[Air Balloon]] also do not cause any such effects, even if the item's function is being suppressed by {{a|Klutz}} or {{m|Magic Room}}.

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], in the "Compare" section of the Pokédex, if the player taps a Pokémon's menu sprite, ten simplified {{type|Flying}} Pokémon sprites will fly onto the screen, encircle and lift the Pokémon's model up, before dropping, with a number of them flying off the screen, with the number remaining depending on the Pokémon's weight; more Flying-type Pokémon will remain for heavier Pokémon. If the Pokémon is {{p|Diglett}}, {{p|Dugtrio}}, or {{me|Gengar}}, the Flying-type Pokémon will all disperse before even attempting to lift it.
