In [[Generation II]], the only [[Pokédex]] number displayed in the summary is from the Old Pokédex (later known as [[National Pokédex]]). In other games prior to [[Generation VII]], the [[regional Pokédex]] number appears in the summary screen until the player receives the [[National Pokédex]]. From that point onward, the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex number]] appears instead. However, this has no effect on Pokémon available in the [[Kanto]]-based games, because their [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex number]] matches their National Pokédex number.

===Area and level met===
===Meeting information===
In {{game|Crystal}}, the area where each Pokémon was met, as well as their [[level]] at the time, are internally stored in the game data, but they are not shown in the stats. The [[Poké Seer]], an elderly woman in [[Cianwood City]], can tell when a Pokémon where and when a Pokémon in the {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s party has been caught. She will also comment about how much the Pokémon's level has grown from when it was caught.
Starting in {{game|Crystal}}, the games store data about a Pokémon related to when it was first caught.


If a Pokémon is [[transfer]]red to a [[Generation I]] game, this data is permanently lost. However, it is retained when [[trade]]d to {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, despite those games not recording this data.
In Pokémon Crystal, this is not seen in the summary but is told by the [[Poké Seer]] if the Pokémon has meeting data available. If a Pokémon is [[transfer]]red from [[Generation II]] to {{gen|I}}, this data is permanently lost. However, it is retained when [[trade]]d to {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, despite those games not recording this data.


From [[Generation III]] onward, this information is found in the Pokémon's summary.
