'''Poképédia''' is a {{wp|French language}} online encyclopedia for information on [[Pokémon]]—including information on the games, anime, TCG, as well as fandom and meta. It is the French language member of [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]]. The name Poképédia is a {{wp|portmanteau}} of ''Pokémon'' and ''Encyclopedia''. Poképédia's mascot and logo is {{p|Uxie}}.

As of mid-December 2008, Poképédia contained over 1,500 articles and had 341 registered users as of Poképédia's {{fr|Statistiques|Statistics}}. Its Pokémon pages have thorough illustrations of [[generation]]al artwork and sprites (including {{shiny}} Pokémon), and characters' Pokémon in the games and [[Pokémon anime|anime]]. Its main page has a slightly different format than its {{wp|English language}} counterpart, as Poképédia has a column of subjects with illustrated links to portals on the right. Subjects on the left-hand side include editorials, recent discoveries, and works in progress (<span lang="fr">éditorial, découverte, et travail en cours</span>).

Poképédia's logo and mascot is an {{p|Uxie}} wearing a puzzle piece around its neck. Uxie was chosen for being the Knowledge Pokémon, as Poképédia intends to be the largest French knowledge base on Pokémon. Strangely, however, Uxie has its eyes open in the logo, where the Pokédex states that anyone who sees its eyes open will lose their memory. Like the other members of its trio, it is pictured with golden eyes, though this is not known to be official.

The puzzle piece around the Uxie's neck may symbolize either the missing pieces of information that are needed to complete Poképédia, or be a reference to Wikipedia's logo, which is a sphere made up of puzzle pieces.
