A '''version mascot''' is a Pokémon that appears on the boxart — and often label — of one of the [[Pokémon games]] in the main series.

The '''mascot''' of a {{pkmn|games|Pokémon game}} is the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that appears on the boxart—and often label—of that game.


Early on, the first two version mascots in a generation shared more of a relation with each other than with the third; however, in the Hoenn and Sinnoh trilogies, all three had a significant relationship between them.
Early on, the mascot of a game was not necessarily relevant plot-wise, and did not even have to be met to complete the game. [[Generation III]] (with the exception of the [[Generation I]] [[remake]]s) began the trend of the game mascot being mandatory to encounter in order to progress the plot, and more recent games even force the player to catch the mascot to continue. Game mascot Pokémon are often given increased [[catch rate]]s and the ability to respawn if they are defeated in order to account for this. All core series games have [[Legendary Pokémon]] as mascots, except for games where the player starts in [[Kanto]], which feature a [[first partner Pokémon]] instead, and [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], which lacks a game mascot on its boxart.

In general, only [[core series]] games have mascots, as most [[Spin-off Pokémon games|side series and spin-off games]] display multiple Pokémon on their box covers and so none of them qualify as mascots. The only current exceptions to this are [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], {{OBP|Detective Pikachu|video game}}, and {{g|Sleep}}.
