'''Version-exclusive Pokémon''' are Pokémon that are only found in one or two games in a single [[generation]], to encourage trading between multiple players. For instance, in the original {{game3|Red and Green|Pokémon Red|s}}, {{p|Bellsprout}} was absent but appeared in {{game3|Red and Green|Pokémon Green|s}} ({{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Blue|s}} outside Japan). Version-exclusive Pokémon usually complement each other in design, type, as well as location of appearance in the wild.

Version-exclusive Pokémon usually complement each other in design, type, as well as location of appearance in the wild.
It is typical for several [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolutionary families]] of Pokémon to be version exclusives in the first two games of a generation, and then, in the third version, some version-exclusives from the first two games will be obtainable, while others while not, and in the third version, some Pokémon will be unobtainable that were obtainable in both of the first two games. For example, the {{p|Weedle}} and {{p|Koffing}} families were obtainable in both {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, but unobtainable in {{game|Yellow}}.


Below is a list of Pokémon exclusive to games. This list does not take note of Pokémon exclusive between [[Generation III]] [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]] games, simply because there are too many Pokémon that are native to each individual region to list; a better indicator of those Pokémon which are missing from each region would be the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]] and [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]]. However, even this does not take {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} into account, since the vast majority thereof is only listed in the [[National Pokédex|National Pokédex]] of those games. Furthermore, a list of Pokémon missing from the Generation III GameCube games, [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and {{Pokémon XD}}, is far too long to be included in this context.

Please note that {{p|Phanpy}}, {{p|Donphan}}, {{p|Teddiursa}}, and {{p|Ursaring}} are available in the opposite paired version in Japan that they are in America, with the first two in the Japanese Gold and the latter two in the Japanese Silver. However, this change does not occur in [[HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold and SoulSilver's]] American release.
