To look up information on a particular species, Trainers may simply point the Pokédex at an individual or manually enter it in. The Pokédex will then display a picture and read the entry out loud. In the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, it was revealed that it can identify the Pokémon's [[level]] and learned [[move]]s, even for [[wild Pokémon]]. Apparently, a picture or video recording of sufficient quality can also be scanned for information. Attempting to identify an unknown Pokémon, most usually not native to the region the Pokédex was designed for, yields the message "no data". | To look up information on a particular species, Trainers may simply point the Pokédex at an individual or manually enter it in.

Like in the games, the Pokédex has gone through various designs. This includes its shape and way of opening, display, as well as the aforementioned voice. The Unova Pokédex redesign in the anime is significant, as it shows all the viewing angles from the Pokémon, with the exception of the back. | Like in the games, the Pokédex has gone through various designs.
