'''Pokémon World''' is a UK-based, monthly magazine that gives out information about new games, mostly upcoming Pokémon ones. It is known to spell the names of Pokémon wrong occasionally and sometimes give misleading information, such as leading up to the release of Pokémon Emerald, it stated the player would be able to buy and change clothing in-game, when really the protagonists were just given new, green-colored clothing; it also relies on websites such as Bulbapedia and [[Serebii.net]] for its information.

the magazine usually comes with lots of free gifts and information about [[pokemon games]] and is usually quite up to date, pokemon world can be a little deceiving when it comes to wifi events, it can get the dates of when the events start and end wrong, like when they said a mew was availible for download via wifi from october the 15th in the november issue and was still availible, when the event really ended
october the 30th, it also seems deceiving that pokemon fans buy pokemon world every month when
they can get all the information off [[serebii.net]] or [[bulbapedia]] for free, while this is quite deceiving, the magazine is very populer.
 
The magazine is made by a group of pokemon fans and pubished by imagineshop, the magazine claims it is unnoficial, the magazine cannot be official for 2 reasons, firstly [[serebii.net]] launched a official pokemon magazine near the release of pokemon fire red and leaf green, so
[[serebii.net]] has rights to it, the secound reason is that nintendo don't want people revealing information to the public about upcoming pokemon games apart from "Coro Coro" and
"The Official Nintendo Magazine".
