The games can be grouped into eight [[generation]]s. The defining point of where a new generation begins is when a new [[core series]] Pokémon game is released with a large set of new Pokémon in its [[Pokédex]]. Games are also split between core series games and spin-off games. In most core games, the {{player}} can choose one out of three Pokémon to start their journey with. Spin-off games give players various options in the way they both obtain and make use of Pokémon. | The games can be grouped into eight [[generation]]s.
