National Mode order was known as the "old Pokédex" in [[Generation II]], while Johto's regional Pokédex at the time was known as the "[[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|New Pokédex]]". This arose from the fact that Generation I was the only previous generation, and one could journey to [[Kanto]] in Generation II. Once [[Hoenn]] got [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|its own Pokédex order]], however, the numbering system that began with {{p|Bulbasaur}} had to change its name so as not to reference Kanto, itself inaccessible in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald. Considering that the term "Kanto Pokédex" went on to reference only the first 151 members of the National Pokédex, while the "Johto Pokédex" references the new order for HeartGold and SoulSilver, everything straightened itself out in the end. | National Mode order was known as the "old Pokédex" in [[Generation II]], while Johto's regional Pokédex at the time was known as the "[[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|New Pokédex]]".
