The in-game rewards are usually a congratulations from the director's avatar and a [[diploma]], usually one for completing the regional Pokédex and one for the National Pokédex. In {{v2|Emerald}}, the player could choose from one of the Johto [[starter Pokémon]] for completing the Hoenn Dex. The completion of the Pokédex also usually allows the player to upgrade his/her {{ga|Trainer Card}}.

In Generations I to III, the completion of the regional Pokédex is tracked by how many Pokémon the player has caught. However, in Generation IV, the regional Pokédex is tracked simply by how many Pokémon the player has seen. In Generation V, the requirement is again to catch all Pokémon in the Unova region. Completion of the National Pokédex is strictly based on the number of Pokémon caught.
In Generations I to III, the completion of the regional Pokédex is tracked by how many Pokémon the player has caught. However, in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and {{v2|Platinum}}, the regional Pokédex is tracked simply by how many Pokémon the player has seen, but in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, it only registers ones that have been caught. In Generation V, the requirement is again to catch all Pokémon in the Unova region. Completion of the National Pokédex is strictly based on the number of Pokémon caught.


In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2}}, this system is revisited and gives the player more in-game recognition of the achievements. Once all the Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex have been seen, [[Professor Juniper]] presents the player a {{key|V|Permit}}, allowing access to the [[Nature Preserve]]. Once the player has caught all the Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex, Professor Juniper will give the player an {{key|V|Oval Charm}} which increases the chances of finding [[Pokémon Egg]]s at the [[Pokémon Day Care]]. When the player completes the [[National Pokédex]], Professor Juniper gives the player a {{key|V|Shiny Charm}}, which increases the chances of encountering and hatching [[Shiny Pokémon]].
