==Key==
==Overview==
===Generation I===
In the [[Generation I]], there are 151 Pokémon. 150 Pokémon are available in-game and 1 Pokémon is event-only ({{p|Mew}}).
 
{{game|Red and Blue|s}} together have all the available Pokémon in this generation. {{game|Yellow}} is missing some Pokémon that can be found either in Red or Blue. Additionally, almost all available Pokémon can be traded from the Generation II games. The only Generation I Pokémon unavailable from the Generation II games are these, and their evolutions: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Kabuto}}, {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}}, as well as the event-only {{p|Mew}}.
 
Pokémon Red and Blue have the same available Pokémon as the Japanese pair of games {{game|Red and Green|s}}. The Japanese game [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Pokémon Blue]] (which was released after Red and Green as a standalone game) is missing some Pokémon that can be found either in Red or Green.
 
The Pokémon below (and their evolutions) are mutually exclusive. Only one of them can be obtained per game, outside of trading. It is possible to obtain additional Pokémon of these species by breeding them on the Generation II games.
 
* {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} ([[starter Pokémon]], prior to Yellow)
* {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}}
* {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Kabuto}} (from the mutually-exclusive [[Helix Fossil]] and [[Dome Fossil]])
* {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}}, and {{p|Flareon}} (there is a single {{p|Eevee}} per game)
 
Due to the lack of {{pkmn|breeding}} mechanic in Generation I, having an evolved Pokémon would not help with acquiring its earlier stages, unless breeding in the Generation II is involved. For instance, is the player receives a a {{p|Blastoise}} via trading, that still does not help with acquiring {{p|Squirtle}} or {{p|Wartortle}} in the Generation I games without further trading with the Generation II games.
 
The Pokémon below are available only as [[outsider Pokémon]] in some games of this generation, because they can only be found via [[in-game trade]]s and via trades from other [[Generation I]] or [[Generation II]] games. As a rare exception, they would not be considered outsider Pokémon if the current player's name and ID matched the traded Pokémon's OT and OT ID. Aside from that exception, these Pokémon would only be legitimately available with an unchangeable [[nickname]]. For instance, all Farfetch'd would be nicknamed "DUX" (or the equivalent in other languages) prior to Pokémon Yellow. With the introduction of breeding in Generation II, all these Pokémon would be available with different nicknames or no nickname at all.
 
* {{p|Lickitung}} (prior to Pokémon Yellow outside of Japan; prior to Pokémon Blue in Japan)
* {{p|Farfetch'd}} (prior to Pokémon Yellow)
* {{p|Mr. Mime}} (all Generation I games)
* {{p|Jynx}} (prior to Pokémon Yellow outside of Japan; prior to Pokémon Blue in Japan)
 
If the player defeats or runs from any of these [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Generation I|in-game event Pokémon]], it will become permanently unavailable, and no other of the same species will appear in the current game: {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mewtwo}}, and two {{p|Snorlax}}.
 
===Generation II===
In the [[Generation II]], there are 251 Pokémon.
 
* In the original [[Game Boy Color]] release, 249 Pokémon were available in-game and 2 Pokémon were event-only ({{p|Mew}} and {{p|Celebi}}). Additionally, the Celebi event was only available in Japan.
* In the [[Virtual Console]] release, Celebi became available in-game in all regions. Therefore, 250 Pokémon are available in-game and 1 is event-only (Mew).
 
{{game|Gold and Silver|s}} together have all the available Pokémon from both Generations I and II, except for these Generation I Pokémon and their evolutions: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Omanyte}}, {{p|Kabuto}}, {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}}, as well as the event-only {{p|Mew}}. {{game|Crystal}} is missing some Pokémon that can be found in either Gold or Silver. Additionally, all the available Generation I Pokémon can be traded from the Generation I games.
 
The player chooses {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, or {{p|Totodile}} as their starter. They are the only mutually exclusive Pokémon in the Generation II games.
 
In this generation, only {{p|Unown}} I and V can be [[Shiny]], because both Shininess and the Unown letter are determined by [[IV]]s.
 
If the player defeats or runs from any of these [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Generation II|in-game event Pokémon]], it will become permanently unavailable, and no other of the same species will appear in the current game: {{p|Lapras}}, {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Sudowoodo}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and {{p|Lugia}}.
 
===Generation III===
In the [[Generation III]], there are 386 Pokémon.
 
In the core series, 380 Pokémon are available in-game and 6 Pokémon are event-only ({{p|Mew}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, and {{p|Deoxys}}). Additionally, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}} can be caught in the games [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD|XD]], respectively, and traded to the core series games. Jirachi can be obtained from [[Pokémon Channel]] (Europe), and was also available in the [[Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc]] (America). Celebi was available from the [[Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc]] (Japan).
 
There is no way to transfer Pokémon from previous generations into the Generation III. However, all Pokémon from previous generations are available in the Generation III games by other means. Ho-Oh and Lugia are the only two Pokémon that were normally available in the Generation II games but cannot be found in Generation III games outside of events and trades with Colosseum or XD.
 
{{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} together have all the Pokémon from the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Generation III Hoenn Pokédex]], except for the event-only Jirachi and Deoxys. {{game|Emerald}} is missing some Pokémon from the Hoenn Pokédex that can be found in either Ruby or Sapphire. {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} together have all the Pokémon from the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Generation III Kanto Pokédex]], except for the event-only Mew.
 
Ruby and Sapphire have no Pokémon available outside the Hoenn Pokedex, unless they trade with other games. Most of the Pokémon outside the Kanto and Hoenn Pokédexes (which are all Generation II Pokémon in these games) are available either in the [[Sevii Islands]] from FireRed and LeafGreen or in the {{ho|Safari Zone}} from Emerald.
 
The Pokémon below (and their evolutions) are mutually exclusive.
 
In FireRed and LeafGreen:
* {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} ([[starter Pokémon]])
* {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} (the other can be acquired via breeding)
* {{p|Omanyte}} and {{p|Kabuto}} (from the mutually-exclusive [[Helix Fossil]] and [[Dome Fossil]])
* {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}} (only one is available, depending on the chosen starter Pokémon)
** Additionally, the [[Legendary beasts]] can be caught in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and traded to the core series games.
 
In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald:
* {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}}, and {{p|Mudkip}} ([[starter Pokémon]])
* {{p|Lileep}} and {{p|Anorith}} (from the mutually-exclusive [[Root Fossil]] and [[Claw Fossil]], prior to Emerald)
* {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} (in Emerald, the player chooses one, and the other is available via the event-only [[Eon Ticket]])
* {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, and {{p|Totodile}} (one is chosen by the player as the prize for completing the Hoenn Pokédex, only in Emerald)
** Additionally, the Johto starters can be caught in [[Pokémon XD]] and traded to the core series games.
 
Each of the four Formes of {{p|Deoxys}} is available, depending on which game cartridge it is on. It cannot be changed without trading.
 
* Normal Forme in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire}}, {{pkmn|Colosseum}} and {{XD}}.
* Attack Forme in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|Pokémon FireRed}}.
* Defense Forme in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|Pokémon LeafGreen}}.
* Speed Forme in {{game|Emerald}}.
 
If the player defeats or runs from any of these [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Generation I|in-game event Pokémon]], it will become permanently unavailable, and no other of the same species will appear in the current game:
 
* In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald: {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Registeel}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/3|E}}, {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/3|R}}{{sup/3|E}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}
** Event-only: {{p|Mew}}{{sup/3|E}}
* In FireRed and LeafGreen: {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, {{p|Moltres}}, {{p|Mewtwo}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, and two {{p|Snorlax}}
** Event-only: {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, and {{p|Deoxys}}
 
Due to [[List of glitches in Generation III#Roaming Roar bug|an oversight]] in FireRed and LeafGreen, if the wild {{p|Entei}} or {{p|Raikou}} uses {{m|Roar}} in FireRed and LeafGreen, that Pokémon becomes permanently unavailable in the current game. ({{p|Suicune}} is unaffected by this glitch, because it does not have Roar in its moveset when found in these games.)
 
===Generation IV===
In the [[Generation IV]], there are 493 Pokémon.
 
In the core series, 484 Pokémon are available in-game and 9 Pokémon are event-only ({{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Arceus}}). Additionally, a {{p|Manaphy}} Egg may be transferred from any of the 3 [[Pokémon Ranger]] games, and {{p|Phione}} may be bred from Manaphy.
 
Pokémon from the Generation III may be transferred to Generation IV via the [[Pal Park]].
 
Aside from {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, {{p|Registeel}}, and {{p|Regigigas}}, all other non-event Pokémon from generations I–IV are available in the Generation IV games and don't require the Pal Park. A [[fateful encounter]] Regigigas may be caught in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum if the player already has Regirock, Regice, and Registeel. Conversely, Regirock, Regice, and Registeel may be caught in Platinum if the player already has a fateful encounter Regigigas. The player may either trade the required Pokémon with someone else or transfer the trio of Legendary titans from the Generation III games via the Pal Park to obtain Regigigas.
 
{{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} together have all the Pokémon from the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] (which has 150 Pokémon in these games), aside from {{p|Manaphy}}. {{game|Platinum}} is missing some Pokémon from the Sinnoh Pokédex (which has 210 Pokémon in this game) that can be found in either Diamond or Pearl. {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} together have all the Pokémon from the [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Generation IV Johto Pokédex]] (which has 256 Pokémon in this generation), except {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Mew}}. Alternatively, all Pokémon from the Johto Pokédex may be transferred from the Generation III games, except for 5 new evolutions introduced in the Generation IV.
 
In {{game|Platinum}}, if the player's [[Trainer ID number|ID]] is a odd number, the [[Skull Fossil]] is available; if the ID is an even number, the [[Claw Fossil]] is available. Therefore, either {{p|Cranidos}} or {{p|Rampardos}} (and their evolutions) are available in each Platinum game, outside of trades.
 
The [[dual-slot mode]] causes some wild Pokémon appear in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum if a [[Game Boy Advance|GBA]] cartridge is inserted in the Nintendo DS system. However, all Pokémon available from the dual-slot mode are also available (without the dual-slot mode) in HeartGold or SoulSilver.
 
Origin Forme {{p|Giratina}}, Sky Forme {{p|Shaymin}}, and all appliance forms of {{p|Rotom}} were introduced in Platinum and are also compatible with HeartGold and SoulSilver, but they are incompatible with Diamond and Pearl.  {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Pikachu-colored Pichu}} and [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] were event-only. The Pikachu-colored Pichu was only distributed for Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, but it can be traded with HeartGold and SoulSilver. The Spiky-eared Pichu is available in HeartGold and SoulSilver if the player has a Pikachu-colored Pichu. However, the Spiky-eared Pichu is unable to be traded or transferred to any games. Only one Spiky-eared is available per game in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
 
The Pokémon below (and their evolutions) are mutually exclusive.
 
In Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum:
* {{p|Turtwig}}, {{p|Chimchar}}, and {{p|Piplup}} ([[starter Pokémon]])
 
In HeartGold and SoulSilver:
* {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, and {{p|Totodile}} (starter Pokémon)
* {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}} ([[Sinjoh Ruins]] event)
* {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} (given by [[Professor Oak]] after the player defeats {{ga|Red}})
* {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}}, and {{p|Mudkip}} (given by [[Steven Stone]] after the player defeats {{ga|Red}})
 
Starting this generation, the [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Generation IV|in-game event Pokémon]], which includes many [[Legendary Pokémon]], respawn if they are defeated or if the Trainer runs from battle. In this and next generations, many of these Pokémon respawn the next time the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]].
 
===Generation V===
In the [[Generation V]], there are 649 Pokémon.
 
In the core series, 636 Pokémon are available in-game and 13 Pokémon are event-only ({{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, and {{p|Genesect}}). Prior to Black 2 and White 2, {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}} were event-only as well.
 
Pokémon from the Generation IV (including any Pokémon previously transferred from the Generation III) may be transferred to Generation V via the [[Poké Transfer]]. Several Pokémon from previous generations may not be found in the Generation V games, but may be transferred from earlier games. Some were also available from the now-defunct [[Dream World]].
 
In Black and White, the [[Relocator]] may be used to transfer certain event-only Pokémon from the Generation IV games for the purpose of catching {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}. Zorua becomes available if the player transfers {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Celebi}}, and Zoroark becomes available if the player transfers the {{Shiny}} [[Legendary beasts]] ({{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Raikou}}, {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Entei}}, and {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Suicune}}).
 
{{game|Black and White|s}} together, as well as {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}} together, have all the non-event Pokémon from the Unova Pokédex (which has [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number (Black and White)|155 Pokémon]] in the first pair of games, and was expanded to [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number (Black 2 and White 2)|300 Pokémon]] in the second pair of games).
 
The Pokémon below (and their evolutions) are mutually exclusive:
 
* {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}} ([[starter Pokémon]])
* {{p|Tirtouga}} and {{p|Archen}} (from the mutually-exclusive [[Cover Fossil]] and [[Plume Fossil]], prior to Black 2 and White 2)
 
{{p|Kyurem|White Kyurem, Black Kyurem}}, the Therian Forms of the [[Forces of Nature]] ({{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}}), and Resolute Form {{p|Keldeo}} were introduced in Black 2 and White 2, and are incompatible with Black and White. It's impossible to own both White Kyurem and Black Kyurem at the same time legitimately.
 
===Generation VI===
In the [[Generation VI]], there are 721 Pokémon.
 
In the core series, 706 Pokémon are available in-game and 15 Pokémon are event-only ({{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, {{p|Genesect}}, {{p|Diancie}}, {{p|Hoopa}}, and {{p|Volcanion}}). Prior to Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, {{p|Deoxys}} was event-only as well.
 
Pokémon from the Generation V (including any Pokémon previously transferred from the Generations III and IV) may be transferred to the [[Pokémon Bank]] via the [[Poké Transporter]]. Once in the Pokémon Bank, these Pokémon can be withdrawn to the Generation VI games. However, Pokémon that have been in a Generation VII game and Pokémon sent from the [[Virtual Console]] releases of the [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II|II]] games cannot be withdrawn to the Generation VI.
 
All Pokémon species from the previous generations may be found in the Generation VI as well. However, in the Generation VI games, {{p|Deerling}} and {{p|Sawsbuck}} may only be found in the Spring Form. Other forms may be transferred from the Generation V games.
 
[[Pokémon X and Y]] together have all the non-event Pokémon from the four [[List of Pokémon by Kalos Pokédex number|Kalos Pokédexes]] (which have a total of 457 Pokémon; most from previous generations, even though all Generation VI Pokémon are found in the Kalos Pokédexes). [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] together have all the non-event Pokémon from the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation VI)|Generation VI Hoenn Pokédex]] (which has 211 Pokémon; all of them from previous generations).

===Generation VII===
In the [[Generation VII]], there are 809 Pokémon. Prior to [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], there were 807 Pokémon. Prior to {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, there were 802 Pokémon.
 
* In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, 784 Pokémon are available in-game and 18 Pokémon are event-only ({{p|Mew}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, {{p|Genesect}}, {{p|Diancie}}, {{p|Hoopa}}, {{p|Volcanion}}, {{p|Necrozma}}, {{p|Magearna}}, and {{p|Marshadow}}).
* In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, 788 Pokémon are available in-game (the same as in Sun and Moon, with the addition of {{p|Poipole}}, {{p|Naganadel}}, {{p|Stakataka}}, and {{p|Blacephalon}}) and 19 Pokémon Pokémon are event-only (the same as in Sun and Moon, with the addition of {{p|Zeraora}}).

All other Pokémon are unavailable.
 
Pokémon from the Generations VI and VII may be transferred directly to the Pokémon Bank. Pokémon from the [[Virtual Console]] releases of Generation I and II games, as well as Pokémon from the Generation V (including any Pokémon previously transferred from the Generations III and IV) may be transferred to the Pokémon Bank via the [[Poké Transporter]]. Once in the Pokémon Bank, these Pokémon can be withdrawn to the VII games.
 
Several Pokémon from previous generations may not be found in Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, but may be transferred from earlier games.
 
Sun and Moon together, as well as Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon together, have all the non-event Pokémon from the Alola Pokédex (which has [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Sun and Moon)|302 Pokémon]] in the first pair of games, and was expanded to [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon)|403 Pokémon]] in the second pair of games).
 
The Pokémon below (and their evolutions) are mutually exclusive:
 
* {{p|Rowlet}}, {{p|Litten}}, and {{p|Popplio}} ([[starter Pokémon]]){{sup/7|SMUSUM}}
* {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} (starter Pokémon){{sup/7|PE}}
 
The {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dusk Mane, Dawn Wings and Ultra forms}} of {{p|Necrozma}}, as well as the event-oly {{DL|Pikachu in a cap|Partner Cap Pikachu}} and {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Lycanroc|Dusk Form}} {{p|Lycanroc}} were introduced in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, and are not compatible with Sun and Moon.
 
===Generation VIII===
In the [[Generation VIII]], there are 894 Pokémon. When {{g|Sword and Shield}} were released, there were 890 Pokémon.
 
Sword and Shield together have all the 400 Pokémon from the [[List of Pokémon by Galar Pokédex number|Galar Pokédex]]. When these games were originally released, any Pokémon outside the Galar Pokédex (including more than half of the Pokémon introduced in earlier generations) were unavailable and could not be transferred from earlier games. The [[Poké Ball Plus]] was released one day later, allowing {{p|Mew}} to be transferred to Sword and Shield, as well as the Generation VII games Let's Go! Pikachu and Eevee.
 
Pokémon from earlier generations can be transferred to [[Pokémon Bank]], and then transferred to [[Pokémon HOME]]. Once in HOME, they can be withdrawn to Sword and Shield, except those Pokémon that are unobtainable in Sword and Shield. Some Pokémon outside the Galar Pokédex can be transferred via HOME. The upcoming expansions [[The Isle of Armor]] and [[The Crown Tundra]] are expected to unlock more Pokémon from earlier generations, as well as to introduce the new Pokémon and new Galarian forms.
