To date, there are seven generations, each introducing their own quirks into the franchise. The [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games are compatible with one another via the [[Time Capsule]] but not with later games; the four most recent generations are also compatible with each other (forward only) via [[dual-slot mode]], [[Pal Park]], [[Poké Transfer]], and [[Poké Transporter]], but not with the Generation I and II games.
