There are 1013 Pokemon. Kind of.
To an outsider, the question "How many Pokemon are there?" seems like it should be a simple one. However, those who have spent enough time with Pokemon games, anime, manga, trading cards, and any other element of the franchise might know that it's a bit more complicated, depending on how you want to answer the question. If you want to talk about how many Pokemon designs exist — for example, Kantonian Vulpix versus Alolan Vulpix — the anꦜsw🤪er is much different.
The official total at the time of writing, between Pokemon Scarlet & Violet's debut and our early preview footage of its DLCs, is 1013. However, many Pokemon have different forms, regional variants, Mega Evolutions, Gigantamax forms, and more. These don't technically count as different Pokemon, but they can often function as such. One final cave♈at is that not every Pokemon is available in every game, so depending on which game you're playing (and when!), the total w﷽ill be a different number.
We've broken down the answers to this question in as many ways as we could think of, outl𒁃ining how many Pokemon there are in eaಞch current-generation game, as well as more generally over the history of the series.
Updated on March 26, 2023 by Quinton O'Connor: It was high time we added the new Pokemon we know are en route in Scarlet & Violet's upcoming DLC expansions! Ogerpon, Terapagos, Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti all join the fray in the months to come, and if you can believe, we somehow managed to successfully spell those out from memory alone.
Total: A Complete National Pokedex, as of Generation 9
Generational Breakdown
So, of those 1013 Pokemon that make up the National Pokedex, how do they distribute across the generations? Most Pokemon fans know that the𓆏re were 151 in Generation 1, but you might not know about the generations past that.
Generation 5 is actually the biggest, introducing 156 new Pokemon, while Gen 6 is the smallest, only introducing 72. Here's the distribution for folks who find this number stuff f🍬ascinating in its own right:
|
Region |
Number of Species |
|---|---|
|
Kanto |
151 |
|
Johto |
100 |
|
Hoenn |
135 |
|
Sinnoh |
107 |
|
Unova |
156 |
|
Kalos |
72 |
|
Alola |
88 |
|
Galar |
96 |
|
Paldea |
103 |
Note that, for simplicity's sake, we're referring to Generation 8's as "Galar" despite the fact that Legends: Arceus tossed a curveball by bringing back a former region (Sinnoh🔯) for the seven species that it introduced. In that sense, if you would prefer to look at things a bit less ho🍬listically, it could be said instead that Sinnoh now has 114 and Galar remains at 89 as per Sword & Shield.
Special Categories
We've taken a look at the different ways t✅o count the total number of Pokemon. Now, let's look at some special categories, just to be thorough, and look at some of the various ways that Pokemon are categorized.
Legendary Pokemon
Many Legendary Pokemon have been introduced over the years. Some gen🌠erations only have a꧟ few, while others add a ton. There is some debate over whether Mythical Pokemon are considered Legendaries, but given that the Pokemon Company makes a distinction, this article will as well.
Both Mythical Pokemon and Ultra Beasts are their ownꦦ section. As for Legendaries, here's a full list, separated by region:
|
Kanto |
Johto |
Hoenn |
Sinnoh |
|
|
|
|
|
Unova |
Kalos |
Alola |
Galar |
|
|
|
|
|
Paldea
|
Mythical Pokemon
Mythic🧸al Pokemon were once considered to be Legendary Pokemon (at least in the West — Japanese media has always differentiated them), but in recent years, a harsher distinction has been made between the two groups.
There are far fewer Mythical Pokemon than Legendaries, and they are 🦋much more mysteri🀅ous. Where Legendary Pokemon are "famous" (or infamous) in a sense, Mythical Pokemon are often elusive, and many people are unsure of whether they even exist.
In the games, Mythical Pokemon are often given as an event gift, whereas Legendaries are often encountered as part of🃏 the story. Here's a full list:
|
Kanto |
Johto |
Hoenn |
Sinnoh |
|
|
|
|
|
Unova |
Kalos |
Alola |
Galar |
|
|
|
|
Pokemon Scarlet &𓃲 Violet'ꦕs Paldea region presently lacks any Mythicals. Zarude was only introduced to Sword & Shield over a year after release, so it's possible we'll see a repeat situation.
Ultra Beasts
There is a bit of a discrepancy regarding whether Ultra Beasts are Legendary Pokemon are not. The simplest answer is... "kind of?" They are extradimensional beings that have many Legendary Pokemon qualities but are not technically considered Legendaries.
In the Gen 7 games, Ultra Beasts are filtered out when searching the Global Trade System if you filter out "Mythical or Legendary Pokemon." Meanwhile, this is not the case in Generation 8. But,🌸 in the Crown Tundra DLC, Peony refers to them as "legendary" with a lowercase-l,🐈 and they can be encountered via the "Legendary Clue."
Whether or not you want to consider them Legendary Pokemon, they are a distinctly separate group from the average Pokemon. There are only 11 of them, all introducꦫed in Generation 7:
- Nihilego
- Buzzwole
- Pheromosa
- Xurkitree
- Celesteela
- Kartana
- Guzzlord
- Poipole
- Naganadel
- Stakataka
- Blacephalon
Total: A Complete Pokedex, With Forms
♋So, if we really want to count how many total Pokemon there are in terms of how many Pokemon have been created, we'll have to consider different variantꦏs, Mega Evolutions, and more.
Mega Evolution?
There are a few things that can complicate the answer to this question, though. Mega Evolutions are an enhanced version of a Pokemon and not technically a new Pokemon, but they are treated as such ꦇin many ways.
They look different, have different stats, often have different types and abilities, and are sometimeಞs spoken of like they are their own species (example: Red says his Charizard "evolved even further!" in Pokemon Origins).
However, the change i🍷s only temporary and (mostly) only occurs wiﷺthin battle.
Regional Variants?
Another wrinkle is regional variants. While Kantonian and Galaria𒈔n Meowth are both Meowth, they are different Pokemon, have different types and appearances, and evolve into different Pokemon.
Bu🌱t, Vivillon and Shellos both have different forms based🌠 on where they are caught (Vivillon in the real world, Shellos in the in-game world), and these forms don't count as regional variants (just design differences).
Purely Cosmetic Forms?
Speaking of appearance cha💖nges𓃲 — some Pokemon just look different based on various factors.
We've mentioned Vivi🅰llon, but its Gen 6 friend Florges is another example, with different colors b☂ased on what flower its pre-evolution, Flabébé, formed an attachment with. Do these different forms that have no function beyond appearance make for a different Pokemon? Probably not, but it's something to consider.
Temporary or Fixed Form Changes?
Some forms do more than just change appearance, with some being temporary for the course of a single battle and some being more substantial.🐻 While Meloetta can swap between its Aria and Pirouette forms in battle, the transformation is temporary, and it will also revert to Aria after the battle ends. While they're both Meloetta, they are "different Pokemon" in the sense of counting how many different Pokemon designs have been made.
On the other hand, a Pokemon like Calyrex can fuse with Glastrier or Spectrier to make Ice Rider Calyrex or Shadow Rider Spectrier, respectively. Surely these don't count as separate Pokemon, but the steed effective🦄ly ceases to exist as its own entity, and the transformation lasts outside of battle as well.
Let's say you have two Pokemon in your party: Calyrex and Glastrier. You fuse Calyrex and Glastrier into Ice Rider Calyrex. Now, you only have one Pokemon in your party. But, Glastrier hasn't been removed from existence in terms of how 🐲many Pokemon there are overall.
Evolutionary Changes?
There are some Pokemon that have a branched evolution into... the same Pokemon.
For example, Kubfu will evolve into Ursh🀅ifu, but Urshifu has two d🅺ifferent forms and cannot swap between them. You can evolve your Kubfu into Rapid-Strike Style Urshifu, which is a Water/Fighting-type, or you can evolve it into the Dark/Fighting-type Single-Strike Style Urshifu. They are fundamentally different, but the "same" Pokemon. They even have different Gigantamax forms, whereas other multiple-form Pokemon do not, like Toxtricity or Alcremie.
Gigantamax?
On the topic of Gigantamax, it poses another problem. If 🍎we're counting how many different Pokemon designs there are, and we count Mega Evolution, then surely Gigantamax forms should count as well, right? B🍌ut, they're different in many ways.
Mega Evolved Pokemon gain the "Mega" monik💙er, like Mega Gardevoir versus just Gardevoir. Gigantamax Pokemon do not receive a new name, nor do their types or abilities change. They do gain more HP, though.
Other Questions
There are some other Pokemon that pose🍌 problems for a simple answer to this question. We haven't listed every one of them here, but we have listed some examples.
Unown: This Psychic-type Pokemon comes in 28 forms, one for each letter of the Latin alphabet and two that are punctuation marks. They don't really have discernable differences beyond their appearance. Howeve💫r, the question mark and exclamation point Unown have different Performance stats in the Pokeathlon, for some reason.
Functionally different form changes: Some Pokemon have significantly different characteristics based on which form they are currently in. Deoxys, for example, has four different forms: Normal, Attack, Defense, and Speed. Not only do they have different appearances and stats, but they learn different moves as 𒈔they level up as well. Zygarde will have a completely different appearance and base stat total based on how "built" it is, with each form having a literal percentage: 10 percent Zygarde, 50 percent Zygarde, and Complete Zygarde.
Ash-Greninj𒐪a: While not a Mega Evolution, it basically is. When Greninja🗹 has the ability Battle Bond, it can turn into Ash-Greninja, with a different appearance and base stats.
The Number of Pokemon By Game
While there may be a certain number of Pokemon in total, that number can change based on which game you're playing. For example, the ever-contཧroversial decision to reduce the number of available Pokemon in Sword & Shield means that these games do not have all 898 (at launch time) Pokemon in the National Pokedex.
We've broken down how many P🍸okemon there are in each current-generation game. The list for each game will be based on what is important in that game's context. For example, there are NPC Pokemon in Pokemon Unite that you cannot play as (like Zapdos and Lillipup), a🐷nd we haven't listed all of those.

Pokemon GO
There was once a time when Niantic would release huge batches of Pokemon into Pokemon GO at once, but ov🥂er the years, the b♐atches have grown smaller and smaller, and now they usually release one evolutionary family at a time.
The developers of the hit mobile game also surprised fans when they decided to seemingly skip over Generation 7 and start adding Pokemon from Gen 8 despite the fact that Gen 5 and G🐠en 6 aren't even finished yet 🍬(especially the latter).
When trying to find a full list of Pokemon in Pokemon GO because you're trying to complete your Pokedex, it can be a bit▨ complicated. This is because there are quite a few Pokemon that can't simply be caught. Here are some examples:
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:> Regionals
There are some Pokemon that only spawn in certain parts of the world. These areas can ಌbe huge or tiny. For example, Heatmor and Durant are hemisphere-exclusive (Durant in the Eastern Hemis🎐phere, Heatmor in the Western), while Klefki will only spawn in France.
Here's a full list of regional Pokemon and wher🀅e they can be caught:

If you need any of these Pokemon for your Pokedex, there are three main ways to get them. The first is to travel to those areas, which is Niantic's goal when making them regional in the first place. The more common solution, though, is to trade with someone who has them (perhaps because they live in those areas or visited them). Many people set up these trades online through their local Pokemon GO groups, whi♒ch you can find on Facebook, Disco༒rd, WhatsApp, and many other places.
A third option is to wait for them to become available during events. Not every regional has been featured in an event, but th🍒ere are often goings-on where regionals will spawn outside of their typical zones. It's not a common occurrence, but it does happen from time to time.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:> Legendaries
Unfortunately, it can be quite the waiting game to get some Legendaries in Pokemon GO. Typically, one Legendary or a group of them that go together (like the Regis or the Lake Guardians) will headline raids for a week or two (sometimes longer). Otherwise, there aren't many ways to find them beyond trading with someone. Some Legendaries can be encountered at higher ranks of the GO Battle League, but that isn't the easiest accomplishment. From time to time, Giovanni will have a Legendary Pokemon in its Shadow form that you can capture afte⛄r finding and defeating him, but this is also no easy feat.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:> Event-locked Pokemon
Some Pokemon that aren't Legendary or regional are locked to certain events, be it a time of year or special event. Notable examples are Delibird (locked to the holiday season) and Spiritomb (locked to Halloween events). There are also many costumed Pokemon that are event-exclusivဣe. Other than trading with someone, the only way to get these is to be patient and wait for the time of year to come around again.
> Mega Evolutions
Like Legendaries, only certain Mega Evolutions are in Raids at a time. In order to earn enough Mega Energy to Mega Evolve a Pokemon, you'll need to wait until that Pokemon is in Raids again. That said, there are sometimes Field Research quests that will award Mega Energy. Additionally, if you've already Mega Evolved a Pokemon, you can walk that specific 🦩'mon to earn some Mega Energy.
As for unreleased Pokemon, there aren't too many left at this point. We mentioned that Ho🐟enn, Sinnoh, and Unova are almost totally complete. There's still quite a ways to go in finishing out Gens 6, 7, and 8, though.
Here's a full list of the Pokemon that aren't released in Pokemon GO yet:

Sinnoh |
Unova |

Total: 27* |

Pokemon Cafe ReMix
Pokemon Cafe Mix adds new Pokemon regularly, a🅰nd, in an update after the game launched, its titled was changed to Pokemon Cafe ReMix, which changed things up considerably. In this game, you don't catch Pokemon, but instead, befriend them and they decide to join the staff.
They come with different outfit🅰s and som🐽e can even be shiny. We'll just consider the base species and their shinies here.
Here's a full list, with their specialties:

Additionally, there are some Pokemon that aꦐppeꦇar in the game but are not recruitable.
-
- Pelipper - Serves as the mail carrier
-
- Timburr - Renovates the Cafe
Finally, several Pokemon are alluded to as part of the servings at the Cafe. Many of the dishes are themed around cert🔜ain Pokemon that don't appear in the game. These are the dishes that🧔 are currently available, though more are added regularly.

Pokemon Unite
One of the newest games in the Pokemon franchise is the hit MOBA Pokemon Unite. This game has a handful of Pokemon that are playable, with each playing a certain role with a particular style or specialty. For example, Greninja is a rangꦚed (style) attacker (role). Also, if you're counting 🐼the number of playable Pokemon, it's important to note that almost all playable characters start out as their base stage and then evolve throughout a match (with the exception of Pikachu, which does not evolve).
Here's a full list of playable Pokemon in Unite, and how they play.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX
This side game is a remake of two games: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue𒉰 Team and Blue Rescue Team. The originals released during Generation 3, and this game still focuses on the first three generations. However, since it has come out in a time when many Pokemon from those generations have evolutionary relatives introduced later, those have been included. Mega Evolution and Primal Reversion also make appearances, as well as two Pokemon you might not expect: Riolu and Lucario.
In the Mystery Dungeon games, you don't catch Pokemon in the traditional sense. Instead, you can "recruit" them to join your team. There are a few ways to do this, but one of the most common is by meeting them in a dungeon, after which they'll ask to join you. For most Pokemon, you'll need the appropriate Friend Camp in order to recruit them. There are even Legendary Pokemon that can be recruited, though mo🐲st of them are loc🧔ked to the post-game. Shiny Pokemon are also available, though they can only be recruited if you are wearing the Friend Bow, which you can find in Solar Cave, on Floor 30 of Mt. Faraway, or in Kecleon Shops in Joyous Tower.
Here are the Pokemon you can recruit in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX:

|
|
As mentioned, many Mega Evolutions and both Primal Reversions exist in the game as well. By using an item called an Empowerment Seed, you can temporarily put a Pokemon in the Awakened state, which powers them up. When Awakened, a Pokemon's linked moves will always be critical hits, its moves won't miss, and bad type matchups will be ignored. Also during this Awakened state, those that can Mega Evolve or undergo Primal Reversion will do so. Empowerment Seeds are random drops in dungeons, and their effects lasᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚt until you leave the current floor. The effects also won't work if you steal from Kecleon.
All Mega Evolutions and Primꦺal Reversions from Generations 1, 2, and 3 are present, as well as Lucario's and Gallade's. Most Pokemon introduced in Generation 4 and on are not in the game, so their Mega Evolutions aren't, either (sorry Audino).
Here's the full list of 'em:

Pokemon Masters EX
In Pokemon Masters EX, obtaining Pokemon works a bit differently. Instead of catching Pokemon in the wild, you recruit Sync Pairs, which are a Trainer with a particular Pokemon. For e🌺xample: You start the game as a player character with a Pikachu, and you immediately recruit two Sync Pairs: Brock and Onix and Misty and Starmie.
Some Pokemon can evolve under certain conditions, while some others do not. Brock's Onix does not evolve, while May's Mudkip will evolve all the way up✨ to Mega Swampert.
We've got a full list of the Sync Pairs available in the game currently, with a note on which ones can evolve and which cannot (where applicable). There are also plenty of Pokemon that can be hatched from eggs to form a sync pair with the player, but those are not listed here.
