A '''Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン{{tt|図鑑|ずかん}}''' ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia'') is an invaluable tool to a {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the [[Pokémon world]]. It gives information about all {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the world that are contained in its database. In the {{pkmn|games}}, it lists the number of Pokémon seen and {{pkmn2|caught}}. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, simply pointing it at a target Pokémon will give someone the Pokédex entry for that Pokémon. In both the anime and [[Pokémon Adventures]], the Pokédex also confers all the information shown by the interface in the games; that is, a Pokédex can display a Pokémon's [[stat]]s, [[level]], and [[move]]s. | A '''Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン{{tt|図鑑|ずかん}}''' ''illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia'') is an invaluable tool to a {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the [[Pokémon world]].

*For ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', [[Professor Oak]]'s lecture is about the Pokédex. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: こまったら ひらいてみよう ポケモンずかん ''Komattara hiraite miyō, Pokémon zukan.'' "When troubled, let's open the Pokédex." | *For ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', [[Professor Oak]]'s lecture is about the Pokédex.

*Most of the Pokédexes appear similar to one of Nintendo's handhelds. The Johto Pokédex resembles a [[Game Boy Color]], the Hoenn Pokédex appears similar to the [[Game Boy Advance]], the Generation III Kanto Pokédex resembles a [[Game Boy Advance SP]], the Sinnoh Pokédex resembles [[Nintendo DS Lite]], and the Generation IV Johto Pokédex is in similar appearance to a [[Nintendo DSi]]. | *Most of the Pokédexes appear similar to one of Nintendo's handhelds.
