The '''National Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|全国図鑑|ぜんこくずかん}}''' ''national illustrated encyclopedia'') is a [[Pokédex]] that has been upgraded with the '''National Mode''' (Japanese: '''全国版''' ''National Edition'') that records information on all Pokémon known to exist, instead of just ones native in a particular [[region]]. The National Pokédex is not available at the start of the games, but it can be unlocked by completing certain tasks. Beginning with [[Generation VII]], the National Pokédex is no longer typically included in the main series games but it can be accessed through storage apps like [[Pokémon Bank]] (Version 1.3 and onward) and [[Pokémon HOME]].
