 Since many of the Pokémon native to Johto are also native to Kanto, for the most part, this is merely a reordered Pokédex list to place related Pokémon closer to their evolutionary kin. For example, in this scheme, {{p|Pichu}} comes directly before {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Raichu}}, and {{p|Scyther}} comes directly before {{p|Scizor}}.
-This Pokédex order could be considered a precursor to the more refined [[regional Pokédex]]es of later [[generation]]s and the [[List of Pokémon by habitat|habitat-based list]] of Pokémon from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Unlike other regional Pokédexes, it includes all Pokémon from both Kanto and Johto, placing those that don't appear in Johto closer to the end.
+This Pokédex order could be considered a precursor to the more refined [[regional Pokédex]]es of later [[generation]]s and the [[List of Pokémon by habitat|habitat-based list]] of Pokémon from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Unlike other regional Pokédexes, it includes all Pokémon from both Kanto and Johto, placing those that don't appear in Johto closer to the end. Furthermore, the New Pokédex differs further from the later regional Dexes in that it includes Pokémon that are unobtainable in Generation II (namely the [[starter Pokémon]], [[fossil Pokémon]] and [[Legendary Pokémon]] of the [[Kanto]] region), which was rectified in  {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} by making all non-[[Mythical Pokémon|Mythical Pokémon]] in its updated Johto Dex obtainable via normal gameplay.
 The order was never referred to directly as the "Johto Pokédex" in-game in [[Generation II]], instead being titled '''New Pokédex Mode''' (Japanese: '''しんがたずかんモード''' ''new-style encyclopedia mode''), where the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National order]] was referred to as '''Old Pokédex Mode''' (Japanese: '''ふるいずかんモード''' ''old-style encyclopedia mode''), in addition to '''A to Z Mode''' (Japanese: '''アイウエオモード''' ''AIUEO mode'') and '''[[Unown Mode]]''' (Japanese: '''アンノーンずかん''' ''{{p|Unown|Unknown}} encyclopedia''). This discrepancy was validated in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} (which explicitly refer to their ordering system as the '''Johto Pokédex'''), with several Pokémon ''not'' in the same order, to allow for the inclusion of the five Pokémon that evolve from {{cat|Generation I Pokémon|Generation I}} and {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} by learning a [[move]] (i.e. {{p|Lickilicky}}, {{p|Mamoswine}}, {{p|Tangrowth}}, {{p|Yanmega}}, and {{p|Ambipom}}) as they learn their evolution-activating moves automatically. This new order can be found at [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number]]. Up to #101 ({{p|Yanma}}), {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}'s New Pokédex and HeartGold and SoulSilver's Johto Pokédex have the same order; however, the two diverge at #102, which is given to {{p|Sunkern}} in the New Pokédex and {{p|Yanmega}} in the Johto Pokédex.
