The '''Pokémon anime novelizations''' are the main series of Pokémon books. In this series, there are twenty eight books. However, only twenty six books are based on actual anime episodes, with ''[[Race to Danger]]'' and ''[[Talent Showdown]]'' having original plots. Like the [[Pokémon Junior]] series, it is a multiple-author series, with its authors being [[Tracey West]], [[Jennifer L. Johnson]], and [[Sheila Sweeny]]. The Pokémon anime novelizations start with the book ''[[I Choose You!]]'' and ends with ''[[Winner Takes All]]'', spanning throughout the [[Pokémon: Indigo League|Indigo League]], [[Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands]], and some portion of the Johto Journeys. This series can be distinguished from other series based on anime episodes from its chapter-book format and the design of the blurb on the back, which consists of a black box with text and several circles featuring different species of Pokémon on its rim. Books in this series typically have a Pikachu near the corner of a page, except for ''[[Team Rocket Blasts Off!]]'', which has Meowth in the corner of the pages, as a reference to [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|the member of Team Rocket]].
