 ===Generation VIII===
-* In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Galar Pokédex number|Galar Pokédex]], [[List of Pokémon by Isle of Armor Pokédex number|Isle of Armor Pokédex]], or [[List of Pokémon by Crown Tundra Pokédex number|Crown Tundra Pokédex]] have entries. Pokémon and alternate forms in the Galar Pokédex or that are compatible with Sword and Shield that are not in any Galar Pokédex have new Pokédex entries that are different between Sword and Shield, if they were introduced in [[Generation IV]] or later, as do a few other Pokémon introduced prior to Generation IV. Pokémon exclusive to the [[Isle of Armor]] or [[Crown Tundra]] have new Pokédex entries that are different between Sword and Shield, regardless of when those Pokémon were introduced, with the exception of the {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}} evolutionary families. The exceptions are [[Legendary Pokémon]], which have new Pokédex entries that are different between Sword and Shield if they are not in any Galar Pokédex. These Pokédex entries are only viewable in [[Pokémon HOME]].
+* In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Galar Pokédex number|Galar Pokédex]], [[List of Pokémon by Isle of Armor Pokédex number|Isle of Armor Pokédex]], or [[List of Pokémon by Crown Tundra Pokédex number|Crown Tundra Pokédex]] have Pokédex entries available in-game as usual. There are also [[List of Pokémon by Galar Pokédex number#Compatible Pokémon not in any Galar Pokédex|some Pokémon]] obtainable in Sword and Shield that are not present in any of the three Pokédex listings, which have no entries seen in-game but in [[Pokémon HOME]] they have entries associated with Sword and Shield nonetheless.
-** Pokémon with reused Pokédex entries have their entries reused from several games.
+** All available Pokémon and alternate forms introduced in [[Generation IV]] or later have new entries. All available [[Legendary Pokémon]] have new entries regardless of when they were introduced. Most of the available Pokémon introduced prior to Generation IV have entries reused from several games, except some of those Pokémon have new entries as well.
+** Pokémon exclusive to the [[Isle of Armor]] or [[Crown Tundra]] have new Pokédex entries, regardless of when those Pokémon were introduced, with the exception of the {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}} evolutionary families.
+** There are no Pokédex entries reused between Sword and Shield. This also applies to the Sword and Shield entries that are only available in Pokémon HOME.
 * In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, every Pokédex entry is reused from either Diamond or Pearl, respectively.
-* In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, no Pokédex entries are directly reused from previous games, as many of the entries are written in first person by Professor Laventon.
+* In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, no Pokédex entries are directly reused from previous games, as many of the entries are written in first person by [[Professor Laventon]].
